KB Home (NYSE:KBH) on Thursday announced the grand opening of Madera, a new home community located inside Loop 1604in Northeast San Antonio.
Offering easy access to U.S. Route 281 and Interstate 35, Madera is convenient to major San Antonio employers, including Whataburger®, Tesoro® and the San Antonio International Airport, as well as the shopping and dining establishments at Valencia Hills Shopping Center and The Forum at Olympia Parkway.
“The interest in Madera has been incredibly positive,” said Brett Dietz, president of KB Home’s San Antonio division. “The community’s commuter-friendly location, which offers quick access to several major highways, is especially compelling to families who are looking to spend less time driving and more time together.”
Madera is within the boundaries of the Northeast ISD and within walking distance of James Madison High School. Nearby Friesenhahn Park features walking trails, BBQ pits, and a pavilion, and McClain Disc Golf Course offers a challenging mix of right and left curving fairways where players can test their skills.
At Madera, KB Home plans to construct 44 new one- and two-story homes. With nine floor plans to choose from, ranging in size from 1,234 to 2,488 square feet, home buyers can incorporate a variety of desirable, structural design features, including dens, covered patios, and coffered ceilings. Pricing begins in the $190,000s.
The KB homes offered at Madera will be built to ENERGY STAR® guidelines and include Watersense® labeled faucets and fixtures, meaning they are designed to be more energy- and water-efficient and can potentially save home buyers money on their monthly utility bills, as compared to other typical resale homes in the area. The energy-saving features included in the KB homes at Madera are estimated to save homeowners from $744 to $1,068 in annual energy costs, depending on the floor plan.
Grand Opening festivities at Madera will be held from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. on Saturday, June 2, 2018, with Amy’s Ice Cream serving ice cream sundaes.
