Thinking about building a new home in Palm Bay?

Gardens at Waterstone might be exactly what you're looking for—especially if you're searching for something you can personalize. With 187 more homes to be built, this is one of the best opportunities in the area to build semi-custom with a builder who puts flexibility first: KB Homes.

In this video and blog, I’m walking you through the community, showing you the location, and sitting down with KB Homes rep Peter to talk about the process, pricing, and what you can expect when building here.

🛍️ Nearby Highlights:

Close to Publix, Walmart, and new retail centers
Easy access to West Melbourne & major roads
Zoned for established public schools
Future growth happening all around this corridor
