KB Home has opened two new communities in Santa Rosa — Greyhawk and Sparrow at Dutton Meadows — offering two-story, single-family homes starting in the mid $600,000s, the builder announced Friday.
What this means for Santa Rosa residents
The developments sit on Dutton Meadow just south of Hearn Avenue, near U.S. Highway 101. That location gives residents direct access to Highway 12, the North Bay job centers and Charles M. Schulz – Sonoma County Airport. Homes are being marketed inside the Santa Rosa City Schools district and within walking distance of local schools, KB Home said.
The houses are two-story detached single-family plans with up to four bedrooms and three baths. KB Home advertises contemporary floor plans featuring modern kitchens that open to large great rooms, expansive bedroom suites with walk-in closets and increased storage.
- Starting price: mid $600,000s
- Home types: two-story, single-family detached
- Bedrooms/baths: up to 4 beds and 3 baths
- School district: Santa Rosa City Schools
Buyers can personalize selections at the KB Home Design Studio, choosing floor plans and interior finishes. The builder said sales offices and model homes are open for public tours, private appointments and live video tours.
Local context and potential impacts
New inventory at Dutton Meadows will add capacity to the local housing market and offer a price point the builder places at the lower end of new-home options for Sonoma County. The project’s proximity to downtown Santa Rosa — including Old Courthouse Square, Fourth Street shops and cultural sites such as the Charles M. Schulz Museum and the Luther Burbank Center for the Arts — is part of the marketing emphasis.

KB Home also noted the communities are designed with energy- and water-efficiency in mind and intend to pursue ENERGY STAR certification for homes, reflecting broader industry trends toward efficiency standards.
For residents, the openings mean more options for families seeking new construction close to schools and transportation corridors. For city planners and housing officials, new developments add to discussions about infrastructure, traffic near Hearn Avenue and service needs tied to additional households in this part of the city.
KB Home is one of the largest homebuilders in the U.S.; the company provided the details on the new Santa Rosa communities in its announcement.
"Greyhawk and Sparrow at Dutton Meadows provide convenient access to North Bay employment centers and nearby cultural attractions," KB Home said in its release.
