Summerlin blends luxury living with parks, shops and recreation
Those who move to Summerlin might spot a celebrity setting up a shot on the 18th green or grabbing a pint of Ben & Jerry’s from the freezer at the local Albertsons. For more than three decades, Summerlin’s reputation as a high-end haven has attracted homebuyers from diverse backgrounds, including famous actors and world-renowned athletes. This master-planned community is situated on the western rim of the Las Vegas Valley just 10 miles from downtown Las Vegas, and it's consistently ranked among the top 10 in the country in real estate sales. Since its founding in the early 1990s, Summerlin has flourished into a citylike community with neighborhood parks, shopping centers, business parks and more. “You can live, work and play in Summerlin,” says Realtor Kimberly McMahon of Real Broker LLC, who has more than 20 years of experience in the region.
Home styles range from townhomes to luxury golf course estates
Summerlin’s more than 20 neighborhoods and villages feature homes with a wide variety of floor plans and styles, ranging from townhomes to single-family homes, with a wide range of prices. Some luxury custom homes with views of the city and The Strip can also be found here, including five-bedroom homes on the world-famous Bear’s Best Las Vegas golf course. Most homes sit close together on traditional suburban streets, and many have driveways and backyard pools. Larger homes and custom builds are often on the southern and western edges of Summerlin, sometimes on golf courses or backing up to the hills.
Condos sell from around $300,000 to $2 million, depending on square footage and location. Single-family homes range from approximately $400,000 to over $3 million, depending on size, acreage and amenities. Homebuyers seeking a 55-and-older community have several options, with prices ranging from $400,000 to $850,000. Most Summerlin homes are part of an HOA, and homeowners will need to pay monthly or annual dues.
