KB Home announced the grand opening of Williamstown, a collection of one- and two-story new homes in a commuter friendly Jacksonville location that is convenient to Interstates 95 and 295, and Bartram Springs Elementary School. At Williamstown, KB Home will construct new single-family homes available in eight different floor plans. With up to six bedrooms and three baths, and ranging in size from 1,500 to 3,000 square feet, the KB homes at Williamstown feature desirable design characteristics like walk-in closets, lofts, flex spaces and dedicated laundry rooms. Pricing begins in the mid-$200,000s, with no CDD fees. Residents at Williamstown can enjoy its proximity to major retail centers and regional attractions, including The Avenues and Shoppes at Bartram Park. Nearby Davis Park features sport courts and fields, recreational sport leagues, four stocked fishing ponds, play equipment and two dog parks. Ponte Vedra Beach is just a 30-minute drive away, while nature enthusiasts can explore the Guana River Wildlife Management Area, which offers hiking, horseback riding, hunting, fishing, wildlife viewing and paddling. The KB homes at Williamstown will be built to current ENERGY STAR® certification guidelines and include WaterSense® labeled faucets and fixtures, meaning they are designed to be more energy and water efficient than most typical new and resale homes available in the area. These energy- and water-saving features are estimated to save home buyers between $972 and $1,668 a year in utility costs, depending on the floor plan.
