Ormond Beach, Fla. - Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc. and KB Home celebrated the opening of their first co-branded community in Florida. KB Home Deer Creek: Homes Created with Martha Stewart is located in Ormond Beach in the Daytona Beach area. Founder of Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Martha Stewart and President and CEO of KB Home, Jeff Mezger kicked-off the community opening by hosting a private block party for 150 sweepstakes winners. Guests enjoyed refreshments, entertainment, hands-on craft demonstrations and tours of three model homes decorated by the Martha Stewart design team.
"This location is the perfect backdrop to showcase the first Martha inspired community in Florida. The quality and value of a KB home coupled with the Martha inspired designs are an unbeatable combination."
Deer Creek offers 1-and 2-story floor plans that offer 3 to 6 bedrooms and 2.5 to 3 bathrooms. The six floor plans range from 2,500 to 3,800 square feet, with pricing starting in the low $300s. The more traditional styles were inspired by Martha Stewart's homes on the eastern seaboard. Dunemere, available for the first time, and designed especially for Florida homebuyers, has an exterior that illustrates Martha's appreciation of coastal architecture. Local design is evident in other details including stucco and wood exteriors, intricate latticework, and louvered window shutters.
Stated MSLO Founder Martha Stewart, "We are pleased to be offering unique home designs for the Florida landscape. The Deer Creek community offers potential homebuyers the opportunity to be different."
Also exclusive to Deer Creek homebuyers are front doors designed by Martha Stewart exclusively for KB Home and showcased in the three model homes. The Martha Stewart doors are inspired by the detail seen in Martha's homes in New York and Maine.
Deer Creek, part of a master-planned community, offers residents walking trails, a pool and a cabana as well as a fitness center, basketball and volleyball facilities and a children's playground.
