KB Home Opens Two New Communities in Aurora’s Murphy Creek
KB Home , one of the nation’s largest and most respected homebuilders, has announced the grand opening of two brand-new communities within the highly desirable Murphy Creek master plan: Murphy Creek Classic and Murphy Creek Reserve. This expansion underscores KB Home’s ongoing commitment to delivering thoughtfully designed residences in vibrant, well-connected neighborhoods that balance modern living with natural beauty and community amenities.
Aurora, often celebrated for its welcoming environment and scenic surroundings, provides the perfect backdrop for these new KB Home communities. Known as one of Colorado’s fastest-growing cities, Aurora offers families, professionals, and retirees a blend of suburban comfort, access to outdoor recreation, and proximity to Denver’s urban opportunities. By choosing Murphy Creek as the site for its latest development, KB Home has tapped into a location that embodies convenience, lifestyle, and long-term value.
Homes Designed for Modern Living
At Murphy Creek Classic and Murphy Creek Reserve, KB Home is introducing a diverse collection of one- and two-story floor plans that meet the evolving needs of today’s homebuyers.
- Murphy Creek Classic: Offers homes with up to four bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths, ideal for growing families or buyers seeking manageable layouts with versatile space.
- Murphy Creek Reserve: Features larger home designs with up to six bedrooms and four baths, perfect for multigenerational households or buyers who need more flexibility for home offices, guest rooms, or recreational spaces.
Across both communities, buyers will find thoughtfully integrated features such as:
- Open-concept kitchens that flow seamlessly into large great rooms, creating the heart of the home for family gatherings and entertaining.
- Owner’s suites with walk-in closets, providing comfort, privacy, and plenty of storage.
- Ample storage solutions, ensuring every square foot is optimized for practical, everyday living.
These designs reflect KB Home’s focus on delivering functional, stylish, and adaptable spaces that resonate with how people live today.
Community Amenities that Foster Connection
A key advantage of the Murphy Creek master plan is its emphasis on lifestyle. Homeowners at Murphy Creek Classic and Reserve will enjoy access to amenities that enrich daily living:
- Multiple parks and green spaces for recreation and relaxation.
- Playgrounds designed for children to explore and families to gather.
- Walking trails that encourage healthy living and create natural connections throughout the community.
- The Murphy Creek Golf Course, a public 18-hole course known for its scenic beauty and challenging layout.
These amenities reflect KB Home’s belief that a home is more than just the four walls around it — it is also about the neighborhood, opportunities for connection, and access to activities that enhance overall well-being.
A Personalized Homebuying Experience
What distinguishes KB Home from other builders is its customer-first philosophy. Every KB home is individually built for each buyer, ensuring that no two homes are identical. This unique approach allows buyers to:
- Select floor plans that align with their lifestyle and family needs.
- Choose exterior styles that suit their aesthetic preferences.
- Determine their location within the community, giving them greater control over their living environment.
The personalization journey culminates in the KB Home Design Studio, a one-of-a-kind experience where buyers collaborate with expert design consultants. Here, they can explore an extensive range of finishes, materials, and upgrades — from cabinetry and countertops to flooring and lighting. This process empowers buyers to create a home that reflects both their personal style and budget priorities.
Notably, KB Home’s dedication to a tailored homebuying process has earned it recognition as the #1 customer-ranked national homebuilder, based on surveys from a leading third-party review site. This ranking underscores the company’s reputation for building not only quality homes but also trusted relationships with its customers.
Commitment to Sustainability and Efficiency
Innovation is at the heart of KB Home’s design philosophy. Beyond aesthetics and functionality, the company prioritizes sustainability, energy efficiency, and health-conscious construction practices.
Every home at Murphy Creek Classic and Reserve is designed to:
- Achieve ENERGY STAR® certification, a distinction earned by fewer than 12% of new homes nationwide.
- Optimize energy and water efficiency, helping homeowners save on utility costs while reducing their environmental footprint.
- Support healthier indoor environments with features that improve ventilation, air quality, and overall comfort.
These standards reflect KB Home’s long-standing commitment to building homes that not only enhance quality of life but also contribute to a more sustainable future.
Convenient Location with Urban and Natural Access
Murphy Creek Classic and Reserve offer more than beautiful homes and neighborhood amenities — they provide homeowners with an enviable location. Situated at the intersection of Harvest Road and Flat Rock Trail, the communities provide easy access to major roadways, including Interstate 70 and E-470, making commutes to downtown Denver, major employment hubs, and Denver International Airport both quick and convenient.
Nearby lifestyle attractions include:
- Southlands Shopping Center: A regional destination for shopping, dining, and entertainment.
- Downtown Aurora: Home to boutique shops, local cafés, and an increasingly diverse dining scene.
- Stanley Marketplace™: A revitalized warehouse transformed into a bustling hub of artisan vendors, unique eateries, breweries, and fitness studios.
- The Rocky Mountains: Just a short drive away, offering year-round opportunities for hiking, skiing, and world-class resorts.
This combination of accessibility, recreation, and cultural variety makes Murphy Creek an attractive place to call home.
