Biz ‘Bite:’ Shea Homes cuts ribbon for model homes in resort community Trilogy Valor

Shea Homes cut the ribbon for six model homes at Trilogy Valor, a developing 55+ resort community near Kuna. The company has been selling and promoting the company for over a year, said Mark Gray, area president with Shea Homes.

“We (have been) able to tell a pretty good story, but there’s nothing like opening up model homes, driving through streets that are landscaped with street trees and irrigation flowing,” Gray told the Idaho Business Review in early October.

Trilogy Valor offers 11 floorplans ranging from 1,342 to 2,367 square feet; all homes are single-story, with detached and duplex options. New homes start around the low-$400,000s. The homes are part of a project that includes amenities for community residents, such as a restaurant and bar, movement studio, pickleball and more. Members of the Kuna Chamber of Commerce, city officials and others attended the Nov. 10 grand opening event. 

 “It’s an honorable business, the business of building a home,” Gray said. “There’s a lot of clichés…There’s truth to all those things that are said. Being a builder, employing associates and gathering up as many businesses with like-values to deliver on that promise is, for a lot of people, a really rewarding experience. And we need more of it.”
