About KB Home, the Builder Behind The Sanctuary

KB Home has been building since 1957 and has delivered more than 700,000 homes across roughly 49 markets nationwide. Two things set the builder apart in Central Florida. First is the Built-to-Order model: rather than choosing from a handful of fixed packages, buyers select their floor plan, structural options and finishes at a KB Home Design Studio, which gives real control over where the budget goes.

Second is energy efficiency. KB Home has delivered more ENERGY STAR® certified homes than any other builder in the country, and homes at The Sanctuary are built to that standard — meaningful in a market where summer cooling costs are a real line item. KB Home currently carries a 4.5 out of 5 rating across more than 400 verified Orlando-area buyer reviews on NewHomeSource’s TrustBuilder platform.

Floor Plans and Pricing at The Sanctuary

The Sanctuary is organized into three neighborhoods, and being honest about where each one stands matters if you are shopping today:

  • The Sanctuary I is in close-out with seven plans still available, from Plan 1346 (3 bed / 2 bath, 1,346 sq ft, from $369,990) up to Plan 2544 (4 bed / 2.5 bath, 2,544 sq ft, from $442,990). Mid-range options include Plan 1637 (4 bed, 1,637 sq ft, from $386,990) and Plan 2107 (3 bed / 2.5 bath, from $412,990).
  • The Sanctuary II is the most active phase, offering roughly eight plans from about $404,990, spanning 1,541 to 3,016 square feet with 3 to 6 bedrooms — the right range for multigenerational households or buyers who want a dedicated home office.
  • The Sanctuary Townhomes are down to a final opportunity, with a 3 bed / 2.5 bath, 1,463 sq ft plan priced around $339,000.

Because close-out and final-opportunity inventory moves quickly, confirm current availability and pricing before you fall in love with a plan. Builders in this corridor have also been active with rate buydowns and closing-cost incentives in 2026, and those programs change month to month.

Community Amenities

The amenity package is well-scaled for the price point: a clubhouse with a common gathering area and kitchen, a resort-style swimming pool, a splash pad, a fitness room, a tot lot and open multi-use lawn space. Residents also have nearby walking and biking trails and dog-friendly green space. Exterior maintenance is handled for townhome owners, which is why that HOA fee runs higher than the single-family assessment.

Location: What Is Nearby?

Location is the strongest argument for these new build communities near Clermont. A Publix sits about a quarter mile from the entrance. US-27 is immediate, with I-4 and SR 429 both a short drive — which means downtown Orlando, the 429 corridor into Winter Garden and Horizon West, and the Turnpike are all reachable without fighting surface streets.

For families and commuters alike: Walt Disney World is roughly 6.8 miles away, Disney Springs about 9.9 miles, and ChampionsGate, the Promenade at Sunset Walk and the US-192 resort corridor are all close by. Major employers within reach include Walt Disney World Resort, AdventHealth Celebration and Davenport Medical Center. On the outdoor side, Lake Louisa State Park offers camping, fishing and trail riding minutes from home, and Clermont’s Chain of Lakes and downtown waterfront are a short drive north.

What Makes The Sanctuary Stand Out

Among new construction homes in Clermont FL for 2026, The Sanctuary occupies a useful niche. It delivers a full amenity center and Disney-adjacent access at a price well below the Horizon West and Winter Garden averages — where new construction routinely starts above $500,000. The low single-family HOA is a genuine advantage, though buyers should budget carefully for the CDD assessment, which is a separate annual line item and easy to overlook when comparing communities.

This community tends to suit first-time buyers, hospitality and healthcare professionals working the Disney and US-192 corridors, and families who want new construction with an ENERGY STAR build standard without stretching into the $500,000s. Buyers prioritizing top-rated elementary schools should review current Lake County zoning and GreatSchools ratings carefully, as they vary across this corridor.

Thinking About a New Home in Clermont?

If The Sanctuary is on your list — or you want to compare it against other homes for sale in Clermont FL and across Winter Garden, Windermere and Davenport — let’s talk before you visit a model. Having representation at your first sales-office visit costs you nothing and protects your interests through contract, inspections and closing.
