For residents of Summerlin®, the master planned community’s active, outdoor lifestyle and beautiful natural surroundings are big draws. For those reasons, the community’s homebuilders are required to incorporate indoor/outdoor detail into their home designs, including covered patios, loggias and balconies, sun decks, porches, and rooftop decks, to name a few.
“Summerlin’s higher elevation offers breathtaking views from multiple vantage points along with cooler temperatures, enhancing the outdoor living experience,” said Jenni Pevoto, Senior Director of Marketing at Summerlin. “We have long recognized the value of outdoor living for our residents, which is why we maintain and uphold design standards that seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor living. These standards maximize living areas within the home, while showcasing Summerlin’s stunning locale along the western edge of the Las Vegas Valley.”
Many Summerlin homebuilders offer additional features—including swimming pools, outdoor kitchens, and fireplaces—via upgrade packages, adding to backyard outdoor enjoyment. And, of course, the community is known for its 200-mile-long trail system ideal for walking, strolling, running, and cycling. With over 300 parks of all sizes, the community offers ample green spaces. Larger community parks are designed to accommodate a variety of sports like softball, soccer, basketball, tennis, pickleball, and volleyball for youth and adults.
