Developer Purchases 20 Acres of Land Adjacent to Henderson, Plans on Building 229 Homes
LAS VEGAS, NV – KB Home, a major homebuilder in the Las Vegas Valley, has announced that they have purchased a large plot of “prime” land adjacent to Henderson upon which they intend to construct multiple housing units next year.
The 20 acres of land located in the Southeast valley along Boulder Highway and northeast of Harry Reid International Airport will be the site of KB Home’s latest construction endeavor, with the developer stating they will erect 229 homes at the site.
KB Home purchased the commercially-zoned land from The Siegel Group – a Las Vegas-based real estate investment and management firm – for $19 million, and is currently in the process of entitling the land for residential development.
The Siegel Group President, Stephen Siegel, noted that his firm had received numerous offers for the land in recent years, and said that he is happy that it will be used to address the housing crisis that is currently plaguing Southern Nevada.
We’re thrilled to complete this sale with KB Home, a top-tier builder known for creating exceptional residential communities,” Siegel said. “Their development will bring much-needed housing to Boulder Highway and positively impact the community.”
KB Home’s Division President, Jim McDade, revealed that the 229-unit single-family housing community will be dubbed “Manzano,” and that both construction work and home sales will commence on an unspecified date in 2025.
The new homes at Manzano will be designed for the way people live today, with popular interior features like modern kitchens overlooking large great rooms, expansive bedroom suites with walk-in closets, and ample storage space,” McDade said. “The community’s floor plans will feature up to five bedrooms and four baths.”
The original plot of land involved in the deal totaled 27 acres, with The Siegel Group holding onto the remaining seven acres for future development; there is also currently a 186-unit extended-stay hotel located on the property as well.
