KB Home announced the opening of Northgate, its latest gated community of single-family new homes in Gibsonton. Northgate’s commuter-friendly location offers easy access to Interstate 75, Selmon Expressway, and U.S. Routes 301 and 41, making it convenient to major employment centers in downtown Tampa, Brandon and Tampa International Airport. Northgate is situated near several Hillsborough County parks, which feature softball fields, picnic areas, playgrounds and basketball courts. The community is just minutes from a variety of dining and shopping at Westfield Brandon mall, and a short drive to Summerfield Crossing Golf Club. Residents will also enjoy the community’s proximity to Hillsborough County schools, including Gibsonton Elementary, Dowdell Middle and East Bay High School. KB Home is offering seven home designs at Northgate that range in size from 1,346 to 2,877 square feet, with up to five bedrooms and three baths. Ample storage space, open floor plans, and dedicated laundry rooms are characteristic of all the homes at Northgate. Planned community amenities will include a pool and cabana. Pricing begins in the mid- $180,000s. As part of KB Home’s unique homebuying experience, buyers at Northgate will have the opportunity to personalize many aspects of their new home, from selecting their homesite and floor plan, to exterior elevation and interior finishes that best fit their lifestyle and budget. As with all KB homes, those offered at Northgate will be built to ENERGY STAR 3.0® guidelines 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, potentially saving homebuyers money on their monthly utility bills.
