Builder's new community features beautiful homes close to major
employers, area beaches and local attractions
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
KB Home (NYSE: KBH), one of the nation's largest and most recognized
homebuilders, today announced the grand opening of its Ridgeline
community in San Diego County. Located in Lakeside on a beautiful
hilltop with outstanding mountain views, Ridgeline is convenient to San
Diego's employment centers and plentiful outdoor attractions.
Ridgeline is close to Interstate 8, Highways 52 and 67, and a station
for the San Diego Trolley, which offers a fun way to travel throughout
San Diego. KB homeowners will also be able to take advantage of the
community's exclusive amenities, including parks, children's play yards,
and barbecue areas. Additionally, there are numerous outdoor recreation
opportunities available at nearby New Santee Town Center Community Park,
the Santee Aquatics Center, Mission Trails Regional Park and San Diego's
beautiful beaches.
The 52 attractively designed homes planned at Ridgeline will range in
size from 1,836 to 2,076 square feet, with up to five bedrooms and three
baths, and feature open layouts and spacious outdoor living areas. In
addition, with KB Home's unique homebuilding approach, homebuyers at
Ridgeline are able to personalize their home to their individual
preferences by selecting the lot and floor plan of their choice and then
customizing décor elements, such as flooring and paint colors. Pricing
begins in the low-$500,000s.
As with all new KB homes, the homes at Ridgeline will be ENERGY STAR®
certified, meaning they are some of the most energy-efficient available
today and have the potential to save homeowners money on their utility
costs when compared to typical new or resale homes.
For example, at current residential electric rates, KB Home estimates
that a KB homeowner living in a 2,076 square foot home at Ridgeline
could save more than $1,800 annually in energy costs compared to a
typical, similarly-sized resale home. Solar power systems are also
available at Ridgeline to help homeowners further reduce their energy
consumption.
Additionally, all KB homes include a number of water-saving features to
help reduce use and save money. The standard water-efficient features
included in every KB home, such as WaterSense® labeled faucets, toilets,
and showerheads, can save up to an estimated 30,000 gallons of water and
$300 in utility bills annually when compared to a home that lacks these
features.
KB Home's Ridgeline is now open at 13210 Cuyamaca Vista Drive in
Lakeside. To learn more about Ridgeline, visit www.kbhome.com
