Sunset Ridge – Glory of the Southwest

KB Home hosted a grand opening celebration of Sunset Ridge, their new project in the south west. This new community is located near the southwest rim of the Las Vegas Valley. It may appear to be a little far but it has easy access to freeways making it a convenient location if one needs to travel. People who love mountains will be delighted by the views and the convenient access to the surrounding mountains.

KB Home has always been very conscious of the environment and resource savings. This new project is no different. All homes are Water Smart and Energy Star compliant. There are five floor plans and these are probably the most popular ones KB Home has in their design portfolio. Nothing like staying on with the tried, tested and successful! The subdivision offers two-story homes with three to five bedrooms and two-car garages. Prices start from the low $300,000s.

Charmingly named, in keeping with the theme and location of the community, Sunset Ridge homes plans are called Sundown, Dusk, Twilight, Golden Sky and Sunset. One can actually picture the changing skies around the surrounding mountains and in the community every evening! The sizes of these two story homes range from 1,650 square feet to 2,300 square feet. Ready to build Golden Sky is among the largest and offers three bedrooms. Sundown at just over 1650 square feet is perhaps the smallest. Four of the five floor plans are modeled with the exception of Twilight.

There are variations in what is on offer with each of these ready to build homes. A bonus room is featured in the Sunset model, which has a reasonable area of over 2,300 square feet. The bonus room is also available in the Dusk model which is just over 2,000 square feet. The Golden Sky which is also over 2,300 square feet includes a den that can serve as a private area and perhaps even double as a guest bedroom. Sundown is innovatively planned; though it is the smallest on offer it has a loft with many creative possibilities. All homes feature two car garages.

The community is within the Clark School District and families with young children will find the education available excellent- in fact this is one of the attractions of the area. Residents will find convenient access to the 215 Beltway to hit other parts of the valley. Medical facilities in the neighborhood are excellent considering the proximity to the new state of the art Southern Hills Hospital. Travelers can easily get to McCarran International Airport and of course a night out on the famous Las Vegas Strip with its dining and entertainment is a short drive away. People who love the outdoors and exercise in the open can make the most of Sunset Ridge’s proximity to the mountains. Sunset Ridge is a great spot for outdoor activities like hiking and mountain biking.
KB Homes has a Homebuyers Club that assists potential buyers with credit reports, a review of their financial situation and credit counseling, if needed, all at no charge.
