For active adults and empty-nesters looking to right-size their homes, the master planned community of Summerlin® currently offers neighborhoods exclusively for homebuyers ages 55-plus. One such neighborhood, Heritage by Lennar, islocated in the picturesque village of Stonebridge and has three remaining single-family detached homes available that range from 1,232 to 1,422 square feet, priced from the $500,000s.
The neighborhood is staff-gated to add a level of security and privacy. Heritage’s robust offering of amenities include pickleball courts, swimming pool, fitness center, and clubhouse to create the full and active lifestyle many empty-nesters and retirees are seeking.
At the centerpiece of the village is Stonebridge Park, a 12-acre village park with lighted soccer fields, basketball court, exercise area, pickleball courts, and shaded playground and picnic pavilions. In Stonebridge, Summerlin’s popular trail system and a hallmark of the community, will eventually connect to the Red Rock area as part of a larger planned Clark County Red Rock Legacy Trails project.
According to Jenni Pevoto, Director, Master Planned Community Marketing for Summerlin, the community’s offering of single-story floorplans is also attracting active adults seeking comfort and ease via single-level living.
“We’re seeing an increase in homeowners who prefer to age in place, growing the demand for single-story elevations,” said Pevoto. “Living in an age-qualified neighborhood is a choice that provides homeowners with the opportunity to meet neighbors with similar interests, travel more easily thanks to simplified home maintenance, and enjoy life more fully with programmed events, activities, and opportunities for social engagement.”
“Active adult communities are no longer just for the Baby Boomer population,” said Pevoto. “The oldest members of Generation X, born in the mid-1960s, are also starting to age into the active adult category. Together, both generations are seeking and creating dynamic, fun, and active neighborhoods that provide them the opportunity to right-size their home while upgrading their lifestyle.”
Now in its 34th year of development, Summerlin offers more amenities than any other Southern Nevada community. These include 300-plus parks of all sizes; 200-plus miles of interconnected trails; resident-exclusive community centers; ten golf courses; 26 public, private and charter schools; a public library and performing arts center; Summerlin Hospital Medical Center; houses of worship representing a dozen different faiths; office parks; neighborhood shopping centers; and, of course, Downtown Summerlin®, offering fashion, dining, entertainment, Red Rock Resort, Class-A office buildings, City National Arena, home of the Vegas Golden Knights National Hockey League practice facility, and Las Vegas Ballpark®, a world-class Triple-A baseball stadium and home of the Las Vegas Aviators®.
