The master-planned Henderson community promises a variety of home types and parks, trails and other amenities.
A new housing development in Henderson, Nevada will include over 900 homes, reports Ryan Ketcham for KTNV.
The community will include a variety of housing types, from single-family homes to multistory townhomes. "While the lot is still empty except for model homes, KB Home expects the first houses to be built in about 60 days. The entire community is expected to be fully complete in three years, and homes are already selling." The project also includes plans for parks, paseos and walking paths throughout the neighborhood.
The developer, KB Homes, says the homes will start at $350,000, well below the average regional home price of $480,000. But some locals say that still puts them out of reach for many residents.
