KB Home , one of the largest and most respected homebuilders in the United States, has officially announced the grand opening of Stoney Chase, its newest residential community in the growing Del Valle area just southeast of downtown Austin. This vibrant new-home neighborhood introduces a thoughtfully designed selection of homes and community features, created to meet the needs and aspirations of today’s homebuyers.
A Fresh Take on Modern Living
Stoney Chase offers a variety of one- and two-story homes with up to five bedrooms and three-and-a-half bathrooms. These homes are designed for how people live today, with open floor plans that prioritize connection, functionality, and comfort. Noteworthy features include spacious kitchens that flow seamlessly into expansive great rooms, primary suites with generous walk-in closets, and optional lofts that can serve as home offices, media rooms, or play spaces for families.
With a blend of contemporary aesthetics and practical layouts, KB Home’s offerings at Stoney Chase cater to a diverse group of buyers—from growing families to first-time homeowners and even empty nesters looking to downsize without compromising on quality or convenience.
Community-Centric Amenities
Beyond the homes themselves, Stoney Chase will feature an array of planned community amenities designed to foster neighborhood interaction and a balanced lifestyle. These amenities will include:
- A sparkling community pool for cooling off during Texas summers,
- A well-equipped park and playground ideal for families,
- A basketball court for active recreation,
- Meandering walking paths that encourage outdoor living and connection with nature.
The community is also located within the Del Valle Independent School District (ISD), offering access to local schools known for their commitment to student success.
Personalization at the Core of the KB Home Experience
One of the hallmarks that sets KB Home apart is its deep commitment to customer personalization. At Stoney Chase, every home is built uniquely for the buyer, reflecting their individual preferences, lifestyle, and budget. From floor plans to exterior design and finishes, homebuyers can customize nearly every aspect of their new residence.
This customization process is supported through the KB Home Design Studio, a distinctive interactive showroom experience. There, customers work directly with experienced design consultants to select finishes, fixtures, colors, and layouts that align with their style. This hands-on, personalized approach not only enhances the buying experience but also results in homes that feel truly custom-built—even within a master-planned community.
A Trusted Partner in the Homebuying Journey
KB Home is more than a builder—it positions itself as a trusted partner to each customer. The company’s dedication to transparency, communication, and service has earned it recognition as the #1 customer-ranked national homebuilder, based on satisfaction surveys from a leading third-party review platform.
“We are pleased to offer homebuyers in the Austin area new one- and two-story homes in a desirable location near major employers, downtown Austin and Austin-Bergstrom International Airport,” said Chemise McCain, President of KB Home’s Austin division. “Families will also appreciate Stoney Chase’s proximity to a variety of entertainment venues, including Circuit of The Americas™ Formula 1® Track and Germania Insurance® Amphitheater. At KB Home, we’re here to help you achieve your dream with a personalized new home built uniquely for you and your life.”
Sustainability and Innovation Built In
Environmental stewardship and sustainable living are integral to KB Home’s construction philosophy. All homes at Stoney Chase are designed to meet rigorous ENERGY STAR® certification standards—an achievement that less than 12% of newly built homes in the U.S. can claim.
This means that every KB home includes features that promote energy efficiency, water conservation, and healthier indoor environments, translating into lower utility bills and improved overall comfort for homeowners. Elements such as advanced insulation, high-performance windows, and energy-efficient appliances are standard offerings, aligning with KB Home’s forward-thinking approach to homebuilding.
An Ideal Location with Excellent Connectivity
Stoney Chase’s prime location off Elroy Road provides direct access to major thoroughfares, including Highway 130, Highway 183, and Interstate 35, making it easy for residents to commute into downtown Austin or travel quickly to the nearby Austin-Bergstrom International Airport.
In addition to its accessibility, the community is surrounded by a wealth of recreational and entertainment options. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate being just a short drive from Lady Bird Lake, a popular spot for kayaking, paddleboarding, and scenic trails. The neighborhood is also minutes from premier destinations like the Circuit of The Americas™ Formula 1 Track, the Germania Insurance Amphitheater, and a growing selection of shopping and dining experiences.
Flexible Homebuying Experience
To meet a range of homebuying preferences and schedules, KB Home offers both walk-in visits and private, in-person appointments at the Stoney Chase sales office and model homes. For added convenience, potential buyers can also opt for live virtual tours led by a knowledgeable KB sales counselor, making it easier than ever to explore home options from anywhere.
Homes at Stoney Chase are now available starting in the $280,000s, providing an accessible entry point into homeownership in one of the Austin area’s most dynamic growth corridors.
