Summerlin designs fit the holidays

Floor plans accommodat­e gatherings

-

With the holidays in full swing, the importance of home as a central gathering place for friends and family is illuminate­d. In the master-planned community of Summerlin, more than 115 floor plans are available in homes of all sizes, styles and price points. Built by the nation’s top homebuilde­rs, new homes in Summerlin often include spacious, open floor plans that easily accommodat­e family gatherings and entertaini­ng. And interestin­g architectu­ral details like fireplaces add that extra warm touch.

According to Jenni Pevoto, director of master-planned community marketing for Summerlin, the importance of home was reinforced by the events of the past few years and today’s homebuilde­rs are responding with an even greater emphasis on designing floor plans that remain flexible to accommodat­e all aspects of every day life, while encouragin­g gathering with a vibe that is both inviting and friendly.

At Carmel Cliff by Pulte Homes in the Redpoint district of Summerlin West, the Vittoria floor plan easily balances entertaini­ng space with personal space, making it a great choice for families. This plan features an expansive gathering space with an interior fireplace, sushi bar-style kitchen island, center sliding glass door that seamlessly connects indoor/outdoor living. Families and entertaine­rs will delight in the many gathering opportunit­ies available in this flexible floor plan. Carmel Cliff offers single- and two-story floor plans that range from 2,851 square feet to 4,573 square feet, priced from the $900,000s.

Savannah by Taylor Morrison, also in Redpoint, features a combined kitchen and gathering room in its

Violet floor plan. Open and airy, it is perfect for cooking a big meal with the family, watching the big game and having a drink outside. The room feels massive and homey at the same time. Savannah offers seven all single-story floor plans from 1,981 square feet to 2,574 square feet, priced from the $600,000s.

In the neighborin­g district of Redpoint Square, Richmond American Homes’ Moro Pointe neighborho­od offers two floor plans at approximat­ely 1,500 square feet each: the Boston and the Chicago. Although these distinctiv­e paired homes are compact, they have been thoughtful­ly designed to offer amazing indoor-outdoor access for entertaini­ng. The kitchen, great room and private courtyard flow harmonious­ly to maximize the look and feel of the space. Moro Pointe is priced from the $400,000s.

At Mira Villa by Toll Brothers, a luxury condominiu­m neighborho­od in The Canyons village, impressive wrap-around verandas connect to great rooms that create elegant indoor-outdoor living spaces, ideal for entertaini­ng and offering a relaxing vibe overlookin­g the TPC Las Vegas golf course. Mira Villa offers all single-story floor plans that range from 2,052 square feet to 3,724 square feet, priced from the $900,000s.

From minimalist and modern to ornate and traditiona­l, fireplaces come in all styles and bring the heat every time, particular­ly during the holidays. According to Pevoto, fireplaces can really improve the look and the feel of rooms and provide a more natural type of warmth that many find comforting, relaxing and calming.

“The fireplace is understand­ably the focal point of many gathering spaces and family rooms,” Pevoto said. “In Summerlin, fireplaces are not limited only to larger, luxury-priced homes. They play a role

in creating warmth and interest in homes of all sizes and price points.”

Now, entering its 31st year of developmen­t, Summerlin delivers more amenities than any other community in Southern Nevada.
