KB Home Offers New Townhome-Style Condos in Prime East Bay Location
KB Home, one of America’s largest and most trusted homebuilders, has announced the grand opening of The Chapter, a new townhome-style condominium community in Castro Valley, California. This development offers a rare opportunity for homebuyers to own modern, spacious homes designed to suit contemporary lifestyles. With features like open-concept kitchens, primary suites with walk-in closets, and ample storage, The Chapter’s three-story floor plans include up to four bedrooms and four bathrooms. Select floorplans feature accessory dwelling units (ADUs) equipped with a kitchen, bathroom, and laundry area—perfect for multi-generational families, college students, or generating rental income. Additionally, live/work units cater to small business owners seeking a home-based workspace. The community’s amenities include bike racks, a park, a bike repair station, and open green spaces, all within walking distance of the Castro Valley BART station.
“San Francisco–area homebuyers now have a unique opportunity to own a spacious, modern townhome-style condo in a prime Castro Valley location,” said Oren Hershkovich, Regional General Manager of KB Home. “With proximity to shopping, dining, entertainment, and top-rated schools, plus convenient access to BART, The Chapter is ideally situated for both work and play. Homeowners will also enjoy thoughtful on-site amenities designed to support an active and connected lifestyle. At KB Home, we’re dedicated to helping you create a home that’s uniquely yours.”
KB Home stands out for its personalized approach to homebuilding. Each home is tailored to the buyer’s preferences, ensuring that no two KB homes are exactly alike. This customization process takes place at the KB Home Design Studio, where buyers receive expert guidance and can select from a wide range of design options that fit their style and budget. This commitment to a personalized homebuying experience has earned KB Home the distinction of being the #1 customer-ranked national homebuilder based on homebuyer satisfaction surveys conducted by a leading third-party review site.
Innovative design and sustainability are at the core of every KB Home. The company’s floor plans prioritize open, light-filled spaces that seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor living. Each home is engineered for energy and water efficiency, with features that promote healthier indoor environments. KB homes are designed to meet ENERGY STAR® certification standards—achieved by fewer than 12% of new homes nationwide—providing homeowners with enhanced comfort, well-being, and lower utility costs.
Located at the corner of Castro Valley Boulevard and Norbridge Avenue, The Chapter offers a commuter-friendly lifestyle with easy access to Interstates 580, 880, and 680. Oakland International Airport and major employment hubs in the Tri-Valley, Peninsula, and San Jose/Silicon Valley are all within reach. Residents will appreciate the community’s close proximity to downtown Castro Valley’s shopping, dining, and entertainment options, as well as the adjacent Castro Valley Library. Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy nearby hiking and mountain biking trails at Chabot Regional Park and Cull Canyon Regional Recreation Area.
The Chapter’s sales office and model homes are open for both walk-in visits and private tours by appointment. For added convenience, homebuyers can also schedule live video tours with a sales counselor. Pricing starts from the low $1 million range.
