Welcome to Plan 2913 at Ridge View. This is where dreams meet serious square footage—2,913 square feet to be exact.
This home features five bedrooms and four bathrooms, and it definitely doesn’t hold back when it comes to style and space. The lot sizes here range from about 8,000 to 8,900 square feet, and some lots are as large as 12,000 square feet.
Inside, the main floor features a downstairs bedroom with a full bath—perfect for guests or a home office. The spacious open living concept flows beautifully into a gourmet kitchen with a walk-in pantry.
Upstairs you’ll find a loft and oversized walk-in closets in every bedroom. The primary suite absolutely screams luxury.
Plan 2913 is also designed for smart living with solar energy systems, smart thermostats, and tankless water heaters—making life greener and more wallet-friendly.
As you enter, you’re greeted by a striking 8-foot entry door with sleek satin nickel hardware. Inside you’ll notice the 9-foot ceilings and airy open-concept living spaces.
The home features thoughtful design details throughout, including satin nickel door hardware, elegant two-panel interior doors, recessed LED lighting, and beautiful finishes.
The kitchen showcases stylish granite countertops with a 6-inch backsplash, a double basin stainless steel sink, chrome faucet, and Energy Star stainless steel appliances including a built-in microwave, oven, and cooktop.
The large island and walk-in pantry make this space perfect for cooking and entertaining.
Outside, even the smaller lots offer incredible views, while larger lots can reach up to 12,000 square feet.
For those who love smart home technology, these homes include a structural wiring hub, smart video doorbell, and electric air filtration system for fresher indoor air.
The primary suite is a true showstopper with a standalone soaking tub, separate glass shower, and dual vanity with engineered stone countertops. The walk-in closet is massive—almost the size of a bedroom.
The home is Energy Star certified with water-saving features throughout, providing better comfort, improved indoor air quality, and savings on utility bills.
These homes also come with high-quality insulation, making them extremely energy efficient and quiet.
KB Home also includes a 10-year limited warranty for additional peace of mind.
The Mello-Roos tax here is around $4,125 per year, and the HOA is about $250 per month, which includes common area maintenance.
Lots range from about 9,000 square feet up to 12,000 square feet, and many upgrades are already included—basically what you see here is what you get, minus the furniture.
One of the convenient features is the laundry room layout that connects to the garage through a mudroom, allowing you to bring groceries directly into the kitchen.
Now we’re at Plan 2926. This is going to be a showstopper property. It’s not fully completed yet, but I wanted to show it to you because it sits on an incredible lot with amazing views.
This home will also feature five bedrooms and three bathrooms, similar to the previous model. The great room is huge and flows seamlessly into an open-concept kitchen with a large island that really invites people to gather.
Because the home is still under construction, buyers have the opportunity to choose their own flooring and countertops.
There is also a downstairs bedroom with a full bathroom, perfect for guests or multi-generational living.
Upstairs, the primary suite will have spa-like features with a large closet and plenty of privacy. The views from this property are absolutely mind-blowing, with ocean views to the west and mountain views surrounding the community.
You can even see Catalina Island on a clear day.
This property could be completed very quickly—sometimes within a couple of weeks depending on the stage of construction. The upstairs layout also includes a loft area and laundry room.
Unlike the previous home, the secondary bedrooms here do not include walk-in closets, only the primary suite does.
This tour gives you a look at both the finished product and what the home looks like before completion so you can imagine the customization options available.
