KB Home Celebrates Grand Opening of Latest San Tan Valley Community
KB Home , one of the nation’s largest and most trusted homebuilders, has officially announced the grand opening of Bella Camino Traditions, a thoughtfully designed new-home community in San Tan Valley, Arizona. The launch of this neighborhood reinforces KB Home’s ongoing commitment to creating personalized, sustainable, and affordable living options for families while blending modern design with the natural beauty of the Arizona desert.
A Community Rooted in Scenic Surroundings
Nestled in the heart of San Tan Valley, Bella Camino Traditions offers residents the perfect balance of small-town charm, modern convenience, and breathtaking desert landscapes. With sweeping views of the San Tan Mountains and a network of nearby parks, trails, and recreational spaces, the community is well-positioned for homebuyers who value both comfort and outdoor adventure.
Homeowners will enjoy being within walking distance to local schools and public parks, enhancing the sense of neighborhood connectivity. Planned on-site amenities further enrich the community, with features such as:
- Walking paths designed to encourage outdoor activity and connection.
- Shaded ramadas for relaxation and community gatherings.
- A children’s playground for families with young kids.
- A picnic area with barbecues, perfect for weekend get-togethers.
This combination of natural beauty, recreational opportunities, and built-in amenities makes Bella Camino Traditions an attractive option for growing families, first-time buyers, and anyone seeking a well-rounded Arizona lifestyle.
Home Designs for Modern Living
KB Home’s homes in Bella Camino Traditions reflect the company’s philosophy of designing residences that meet the needs of contemporary families. The community features one- and two-story floor plans with options for up to six bedrooms and three bathrooms, providing flexibility for a wide range of household sizes.
Every home is crafted with popular features that align with how people live today, including:
- Spacious modern kitchens that open into large great rooms, creating an inviting hub for family and guests.
- Primary bedroom suites with walk-in closets, offering both luxury and functionality.
- Ample storage space, ensuring organization and comfort without sacrificing style.
- Light-filled interiors with layouts that promote seamless indoor and outdoor living.
These designs reflect KB Home’s emphasis on adaptable spaces, energy-efficient layouts, and contemporary features that help homeowners feel truly at home from the start.
Personalization Through the KB Home Difference
What sets KB Home apart from many other builders is its emphasis on personalization. Unlike mass-produced homes, every KB Home is uniquely built for its buyer. Prospective homeowners at Bella Camino Traditions can:
- Choose from a variety of floor plans to suit their lifestyle.
- Select exterior styles that fit their aesthetic preferences.
- Decide on lot location within the community.
A cornerstone of this process is the KB Home Design Studio, a one-of-a-kind space where buyers work with experts to personalize every detail of their home. From countertops and cabinetry to flooring, fixtures, and finishes, customers can tailor their choices to match their design preferences and budgets. This collaborative experience ensures that no two KB homes are ever alike.
KB Home’s customer-first approach has earned it the distinction of being the #1 customer-ranked national homebuilder, based on independent third-party surveys measuring homebuyer satisfaction.
A Focus on Sustainability and Efficiency
Beyond design, KB Home prioritizes sustainability, energy efficiency, and healthy living environments in every home it builds. Homes in Bella Camino Traditions are engineered to meet ENERGY STAR® certification standards, a level of efficiency achieved by fewer than 12% of newly built homes nationwide.
Key benefits of KB Home’s sustainable approach include:
- Lower utility costs, thanks to energy-saving appliances and systems.
- Improved indoor air quality with features that support healthier living.
- Reduced environmental impact, aligning with modern buyers’ increasing emphasis on sustainability.
- Greater long-term comfort through advanced insulation and efficient heating/cooling systems.
By embedding these features into every home, KB Home ensures that residents not only enjoy comfort and style but also benefit from long-term savings and a smaller ecological footprint.
Strategic Location for Work and Leisure
One of Bella Camino Traditions’ most attractive qualities is its commuter-friendly location. Situated at the corner of Bella Vista Road and Gantzel Road, the community offers direct access to key employment hubs in Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, and Apache Junction. For professionals and families alike, this central location provides both convenience and opportunity.
In addition to work accessibility, the community offers proximity to some of Arizona’s most beloved recreational and cultural destinations:
- San Tan Mountain Regional Park: Just a short drive away, this natural haven offers scenic hiking, biking, and equestrian trails, along with wildlife exhibits and stargazing tours.
- Queen Creek Olive Mill and Schnepf Farms: Popular destinations for seasonal festivals, family events, dining experiences, and agricultural tours.
- Golf courses and parks: Local options such as Frontier Family Park provide splash pads, sports fields, walking trails, and picnic areas.
This variety of nearby attractions means that Bella Camino Traditions residents can enjoy both the serenity of nature and the vibrancy of community activities.
Leadership Perspective
Ryan Bashaw, President of KB Home’s Phoenix division, emphasized the importance of the new community in fulfilling the company’s mission.
“We are pleased to offer Phoenix-area homebuyers spacious new homes in desirable San Tan Valley, which offers beautiful mountain views and picturesque desert landscapes,” Bashaw said. “Homeowners will appreciate Bella Camino Traditions’ planned community amenities, which include walking trails, ramadas, a children’s playground and picnic area with barbecues, as well as being walking distance to schools and parks. At KB Home, we’re here to help you achieve your dream with a personalized new home built uniquely for you and your life.”
His remarks reflect KB Home’s dedication not only to constructing houses but also to fostering environments where families can thrive.
Why Bella Camino Traditions Stands Out
In a housing market where buyers are looking for more than just four walls and a roof, Bella Camino Traditions delivers on multiple fronts. It provides:
- A family-oriented community with recreational amenities and safe walkability.
- Flexible home designs that grow with families and reflect modern lifestyles.
- Unparalleled personalization options, making each home unique.
- Energy-efficient and sustainable living, which reduces long-term costs.
- Convenient access to both employment hubs and recreational attractions.
Together, these qualities position Bella Camino Traditions as one of the most attractive new communities in San Tan Valley.
