Buying New In Summerlin
With its recreational trails, proximity to Red Rock, sought-after school zones and seemingly countless parks, Summerlin is quickly becoming to Vegas what Scottsdale is to Pheonix. Summerlin residents also tend to love that the area offers some of the best dining and shopping options in the Valley--Downtown Summerlin, the coveted community’s newest addition, has brought in everything from Lululemon to Nordstrom Rack to a second location for a local hot-spot, Grape Street (go get their Penne Alla Vodka and thank me later).
It’s a small wonder, then, that I constantly hear from clients who want to start their home search in Summerlin before looking elsewhere. As Summerlin’s development spreads further west, we’re noticing a number of top builders offering some pretty great plans ready for the taking.
Buying new has a ton of perks, most of which are obvious (i.e. that unmistakable sense of comfort that comes from knowing your floors have never before been walked on by a stranger’s bare foot). But I also hear from clients who love the fact the entire house in under warranty because everything is brand new. Others are noticing that outdoor living spaces are (finally!) making a comeback in new plans. And the eco- (and economically-) conscious buyers tell me they're drawn to the fact that 2015 floor plans are dripping in energy-efficient features. Above all of these though, almost every new homeowner’s favorite buying-new perk seems to be the fact that you can customize every and anything (fixtures, flooring, paint, cabinetry, etc.) to your liking.
Today, then, I wanted to break down some of my favorite new Summerlin developments for you.
