KB Home (NYSE: KBH) on Friday announced the grand opening of Shasta Ridge, an enclave of one- and two-story new homes in the commuter-friendly neighborhood of Elk Grove, outside Sacramento.
Situated between California State Route 99 and Interstate Highway 5, Shasta Ridge is within walking distance from multiple public transportation lines.
Residents of Shasta Ridge can enjoy easy commutes to both downtown Sacramento, either by car or via the SacRT Blue Line, and major employers in and around the city of Elk Grove, including Apple, Inc. and Kaiser Permanente. Nearby Shasta Community Park offers 21.2 acres and a library, shaded picnic areas, a popular skate park and more than a dozen unique fitness areas. Shasta Ridge is located within the Elk Grove Unified School District.
In total, KB Home will be constructing 60 one- and two-story homes and offering four distinct floor plans. With up to five bedrooms and three bathrooms and ranging in size from 1,700 to 2,600 square feet, the homes at Shasta Ridge also feature such desirable design characteristics as spacious dens or loft spaces, master walk-in closets, and dedicated laundry rooms. Pricing begins in the $390,000s.
The KB homes at Shasta Ridge will be built to current ENERGY STAR® guidelines and include WaterSense® labeled faucets and fixtures, meaning they are designed to be more energy- and water-efficient than most typical new and resale homes available in the area. These energy- and water-saving features are estimated to save home buyers between $1,296 to $2,076 a year in utility costs, depending on floor plan.
KB Home will host a grand opening celebration at Shasta Ridge on Saturday, June 23 from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., during which attendees may tour the two elegantly-appointed model homes. Refreshments and family entertainment will be provided.
