KB Home (NYSE: KBH), one of the nation’s largest and most recognized homebuilders, today announced the grand opening of Seminole Groves in Seminole, a private, gated community situated in the sought-after South Pinellas area. Centrally located on Seminole Boulevard, Seminole Groves will provide residents excellent access to nearby office parks, major thoroughfares, shopping plazas and local beaches.

Residents at Seminole Groves will be able to easily commute to downtown St. Petersburg and throughout Pinellas County via Seminole Boulevard, Gandy Boulevard, U.S. 19 and Interstate 275. Seminole Groves homeowners can also enjoy water sports and other recreation at nearby Gulf beaches, Treasure Island and tourist attractions such as museums, aquariums and Tropicana Field.

Seminole Groves offers one of the few new homeownership opportunities in the popular South Pinellas area. The unique enclave of 53 single-family homes is situated around a central neighborhood pond, a walled community with two gated entries.

The six floor plans available at Seminole Groves range in size from 2,294 to 3,290 square feet, and can include up to six bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths. Priced from the low-$300,000s with no CDD fees, KB homes at Seminole Groves can be personalized to suit each homebuyer’s individual preferences.

All KB homes, including those at Seminole Groves, are ENERGY STAR® certified and include WaterSense® labeled faucets and fixtures, meaning they are designed to be more energy- and water-efficient than other typical new and resale homes. The water- and energy-saving features built into every new KB home can also help homeowners save money on their monthly utility bills.

KB Home is hosting a grand opening celebration on Saturday, October 3, with light food and refreshments. To attend the event, visit Seminole Groves at 5800 Seminole Boulevard in Seminole.
