y husband and I began looking for our first home nearly four years ago. We knew we wanted to live in Oklahoma City, with the intention to find a home that we could renovate to fit our personal style. We chose to buy our first home in The Village after falling in love with the storybook inspired architecture and a picturesque tree-lined street. The Village’s proximity to Lake Hefner, parks, and walking trails also attracted us to the area. We enjoy this area so much that we decided to office five streets away from our home. Most of our evenings are spent outside on our patio or taking our dog on evening walks around the neighborhood. We love every minute of living and working in The Village!

ver wondered how Blue Springs got its start? Well, other than being a great place to live, Blue Springs has some other characteristics that made pioneers decide to settle down here.
Blue Springs was named by pioneers who found the area to be a perfect stopover due to the clean, clear, fresh water from a spring just off the Little Blue River. It began with a grist mill and grew since then. When it became the fourth settlement in its county, Blue Springs only had a population of 129 people! One hundred and forty years later, the population has grown by over 52,000 people. Talk about some growth!
