KB Home (NYSE: KBH) will open two geographically and demographically distinct California communities this weekend: One is an affordable option in Fresno and the other a pair of higher-end neighborhoods in Newark in the Bay Area.
Laurel Grove is KB's latest community of single-family new homes in Fresno. Situated near Highways 99 and 180 for easy commuting throughout the greater Fresno area, Laurel Grove is convenient to Community Regional Medical Center, California State University, Fresno, and the retail and dining establishments at Eastgate Shopping Center.
At Laurel Grove, KB Home will construct 178 one-story homes and offer seven distinct floor plans. With up to five bedrooms and three baths, and ranging in size from 1,500 to 2,400 square feet, the homes at Laurel Grove also feature desirable design characteristics such as expansive great rooms, two-car garages and master suites. Pricing begins in the $270,000s.
Residents of Laurel Grove can enjoy the community’s proximity to a variety of family attractions, including Fresno Chaffee Zoo, Forestiere Underground Gardens and Chukchansi Park, home of Minor League Baseball’s Fresno Grizzlies. Outdoor enthusiasts will delight in the community’s closeness to world-renowned national parks like Yosemite, Sequoia andKings Canyon. School-age children living in Laurel Grove may attend school in the Sanger Unified School District.
“At Laurel Grove, KB home buyers will work side-by-side with our dedicated home building professionals to create the home of their dreams,” said Chris Apostolopoulos, regional president for KB Home. “The flexible floor plans, prime location and attractive pricing are sure to resonate with home shoppers.”
KB Home will host a grand opening celebration at Laurel Grove on Saturday, Feb. 2, 11 a.m.–2 p.m., during which attendees may tour the three elegantly appointed model homes. Refreshments will be provided.
The KB homes at Laurel Grove will be built to current ENERGY STAR® certification 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 $3,204 and $3,456 a year in utility costs, depending on floor plan.
