KB to hold open house for Glengarry in Henderson

Today, KB Home will host an open house event at its Glengarry neighborhood, which is located in Anthem Highlands, a master-planned community in Henderson.

The event will be held in the neighborhood, which has striking hilltop views, 10 a.m.-7 p.m., and features the community's new energy-efficient home designs.

The event will include a complimentary lunch to be served from 11 a.m.-
4 p.m.

Glengarry is within walking distance of a variety of shops and restaurants. Residents also enjoy access to a community park.

The two-story homes available at Glengarry are priced from the $160,000s.

Home shoppers have their choice of three floor plans with as many as five bedrooms, 2½ baths and two-car garages.

All homes include brick-paved driveways, landscaped backyards and window coverings. Select plans can be built with balconies or covered patios to enhance outdoor living space.

One plan also offers a first-floor master bedroom suite with an optional second master bedroom upstairs.

All KB homes in Glengarry are designed to help homeowners save money on monthly expenses by earning both the Environmental Protection Agency's Energy Star as well as NV Energy's Energy Plus certification, according to company officials.

Features like programmable thermostats, radiant-barrier roof lining, low-e windows and efficient heating and cooling systems all help keep household utility bills low.

To better illustrate the advantages of such a home, KB Home now includes its Energy Performance Guide in all of its new homes.

Similar to an mpg sticker on cars, the EPG provides homebuyers with estimated monthly electric and gas costs for their new home as it was designed.

It also gives homeowners valuable information on the home's relative energy efficiency when compared to a typical new home or resale home, according to company officials.

The Glengarry sales center is located at 2833 Culloden Ave. in Henderson. From the Las Vegas Beltway south, exit Eastern Avenue heading south, pass Sunridge Heights, turn right on Sun City Anthem Parkway, right on Bicentennial and then left on Anthem Highlands to the sales center ahead on the right.
