[KB Home] – KB Home, one of the nation’s largest and most recognized homebuilders, announced the grand opening of Haywood at Five Knolls, a scenically inspired master-planned community offering spectacular hillside vistas and impressive on-site amenities in a sought-after Santa Clarita location.

With close proximity to the I-5 and 14 freeways, KB Home’s Haywood at Five Knolls will provide residents convenient commutes to the area’s major employment centers. A grand opening celebration is scheduled for Saturday, September 26.

KBHome_Haywood_Plan 3B_FiveKnollsNamed for the five signature knolls that characterize the community, the Five Knolls neighborhood is designed to integrate organically with its natural surroundings and features an extensive array of walking, hiking and biking paths that link to more than 30 miles of trails throughout Santa Clarita.

KB homeowners at Haywood will also be able to enjoy the community’s parks, picnic areas, playgrounds and sport courts, as well as The Club at Five Knolls — a private recreation center that includes a clubhouse, swimming pool and spa.

Haywood residents can also take advantage of Santa Clarita’s shopping, dining and entertainment opportunities, as Five Knolls is just minutes from Westfield Valencia Town Center, Six Flags Magic Mountain and the 130-acre Central Park and Sports Complex.

KB Home plans to construct 115 homes at Haywood, with floor plans that range in size from 1,856 to 2,324 square feet and feature up to five bedrooms and three baths. Each plan is designed with an emphasis on outdoor living, allowing homeowners to enjoy Southern California’s pleasant climate from the comfort of home. Pricing begins in the low-$500,000s.

With KB Home’s unique homebuilding approach, homebuyers at Haywood will be able to tailor their chosen residence to suit their individual preferences. From selecting their lot location and floor plan, to customizing décor elements such as flooring style and paint colors, KB homeowners are able to choose the right home for them.

KB homes at Haywood will be Energy Star certified, meaning they will be some of the most energy-efficient available today, and have the potential to save homeowners money on their utility costs when compared to a typical new or resale home.

All KB homes, including those at Five Knolls, also incorporate a number of water-saving features, such as WaterSense® labeled faucets, toilets, and showerheads, that can save up to an estimated 30,000 gallons of water and $300 in utility bills annually when compared to a home without these features.

KB Home’s Haywood at Five Knolls is now open at Golden Valley and Newhall Ranch Road in Santa Clarita. From I-5, exit Valencia Boulevard heading east. Turn left on Bouqet Canyon Road, right on Newhall Ranch Road, left on Five Knolls Drive and right on Bentwood Lane to the sales center.
