Exploring “Old” Summerlin
Published On: October 18, 2011 Posted by: admin
Whenever I am in the northern part of Summerlin I am always impressed with the ambience of the area, particularly opposed to some of the newer planned communities and even the newer areas of Summerlin. The homes here are a little older than some are comfortable with, but the planned combination of homes, common areas, retail and commercial areas is, in my opinion, unsurpassed in the Las Vegas Valley.
Homes range from smaller condos to large customs. At the time of this writing, prices range from $40,000 to just under $2,000,000. The older villages include The Pueblo Village, The Hills Village and The Trails Village. Homes range in age from 15 years old to around 23 years old. Due to the rather strict CC&R’s in Summerlin, all of the neighborhoods look amazingly good.
The below photos was taken along Hills Center Dr. This tree-lined street is one of the most beautiful in the valley, in my opinion.
Below is a photo of the mid morning coffee crowd at Starbucks in the Trails Village Center.
Pueblo Park in The Pueblo Village is regarded by some as the best “desert” park in the Las Vegas area.
The areas described are just south of Lake Mead Blvd. on both sides of Rampart avenue. Access to the rest of the valley is good, usually by the way of Summerlin Parkway, just a short distance to the south. If you are considering a move to this area I would recommend that you at least give “old” Summerlin a look.
