About The Developer

Founders Thomas Biggs, Lorraine Perkinson, and Dale Perkinson circa 1998. Jonathan Biggs, current Developer of The Villages at Shawnee Bend.

The Villages at Shawnee Bend, a one-of-a-kind ~700-acre luxury home development, was conceived in 1996 (opened in 1998) by Shawnee Bend Development Co. Master Developers Thomas Biggs, Lorraine Perkinson, and Dale Perkinson. The three visionaries bring a combined experience of over 200 projects in 33 cities. Their vision for the lake was to create a class-leading master-planned community that brings a harmonious blend of wildlife habitat and exceptional living.

Their creation has attracted individuals and spec home builders from across the nation to construct custom homes ranging from $500,000 to $17,000,000. Consequently, The Villages at Shawnee Bend stands as one of the most valuable neighborhoods in the state of Missouri.

The continuation of The Villages is led by Jonathan Brownfield Biggs — son of Master Developer Thomas Biggs. His background includes studying real estate development at Harvard Business School and contributing to large-scale urban planning projects in Miami, FL. Jonathan is focused on advancing the Founders’ Master Plan for The Villages by adding new waterfront sections, along with dedicating space for new amenities to support the growth of the community. He is deeply committed to smart development, aimed at preserving the property’s natural beauty and enhancing wildlife habitats for future generations.
