KB Home (NYSE: KBH), one of the nation’s largest and most recognized
homebuilders, today announced the eagerly-awaited release of homes for
sale at two new communities, Katy Oaks Preserve and Katy Oaks Estates,
located in the west Houston suburb of Katy, Texas. KB Home first
publicized plans for Katy Oaks last year, and is now ready to showcase
its Built to Order™ offerings at a grand opening event scheduled for
Saturday, September 28.
“The excitement for our Katy Oaks communities has been building since
our initial announcement last fall, and we are delighted to offer our
Built to Order homes to buyers looking to own in the very desirable city
of Katy,” said Jim Harrison, president of KB Home’s Houston division.
“Katy Oaks Preserve and Katy Oaks Estates are served by Katy’s top-rated
school system, and KB homeowners at these communities will be able to
enjoy several first-class master-planned amenities for years to come.”
Indeed, residents at KB Home’s Katy Oaks Preserve and Katy Oaks Estates
have access to a community park, pavilion, lake, walking trails and
playground, and can be proud to send their children to schools within
Katy’s renowned Independent School District.
KB Home’s Katy Oaks communities are adjacent to the beautiful 76-acre
Mason Creek Hike and Bike Trail, less than a mile from Katy Park, and
offer convenient access to the Grand Parkway and I-10.
“KB Home’s Katy Oaks communities are also just a short drive from the KB
Home Studio, making it even easier for these KB homeowners to meet with
KB Home’s expert design consultants and help them bring their dream home
to life,” Harrison continued.

two-story floor plans, with square footage ranging between 1,836 to
