Briarwood Estates Homeowners Association
Briarwood Estates Homeowners
Association, a Slawson-developed community, consists of 251 homes and includes
the sub-divisions of Briarwood Lakes Estates, The Thickets, and Lost Creek
Estates. Residents of both The Thickets and Lost Creek Estates have a dual
homeowners association obligation, as they also belong to their respective HOAs.
Briarwood is one of west Wichita’s first up-scale neighborhoods, rivaling those
in other areas of Wichita in prestige, comfort, and convenient location. Homes
range in value from $175,000 to $350,000-plus. We are located 15 minutes from
downtown Wichita and 10 minutes from Wichita Mid-Continent Airport.
Briarwood Estates Homeowners
Association offers many amenities – a bargain for the $300 annual association
dues, with no initiation or other fees. Briarwood offers new homeowners several
attractive amenities. We have a swimming pool, two large recreational lakes
tucked into a nature habitat, walking paths, picnic pavilions, a tennis
facility, a baseball field and soccer field for our young aspiring superstars of
tomorrow. We also contract with a security company to patrol our neighborhood,
offering the extra-added measure of security for our residents. We’re sure that
you’ll discover what our residents have discovered – Briarwood is one of west
Wichita’s best kept secrets.
Amenities:
BEHOA has a swimming pool
available to homeowners in all three sub-divisions. We have two large lakes for
private use, bordered by a large “park” or natural habitat that runs adjacent to
the Cowskin Creek. Fishing and canoeing are common past-times (sorry, no
swimming in the lakes). Residents take frequent strolls through this natural
area, oftentimes catching a glimpse of various species of wildlife including
deer and an abundance of native birds. The “east” lake is surrounded by a
sidewalk with a beautiful, scenic bridge crossing over a narrow inlet on the
west end of the lake. The “west” lake or “the Thickets Lake” (as we refer to it
as) is visible from 119th St. The “east” lake is not easily visible from 119th
St. and is tucked back into the southeast quadrant of the BEHOA property. The
“east” lake has two fishing piers and a scenic island with yet another wooden
bridge providing access to it. We have picnic pavilions and barbecue pits in
three places around the lake. Families frequently take the opportunity to host
social functions at these facilities. In addition, for the sports-minded, we
have a tennis court facility, a baseball field and a full-sized soccer field
both of which many of “coach” homeowners use for their childrens’ athletic
teams. Access is gained to the lake and athletic facilities via a gated, paved
driveway. These amenities are BEHOA’s sweet surprise as they routinely draw rave
reviews from visitors and comments like “wow, this is beautiful” and “I never
knew things like this existed”. Needless to say, it’s a source of great pride
for all of us! Finally, we have patrolled security throughout the neighborhoods
to provide an extra measure of security, from late spring through
Halloween.
