Confluence of Factors Keeps Luxury Home Market Hot in Southern Nevada

May 28, 2024 - 2:00am

The homes in this luxury real estate community boast an unadulterated view of the Strip, 72-inch fireplaces, and — in some cases — aesthetic wine lockers, recreational rooms where residents can shoot pool and vanities with mirrors ringed in halos of light.

The houses are cropping up in the hillside of MacDonald Highlands, a luxury community in Henderson, where longtime local developer Christopher Homes is building its latest neighborhood: SkyVu.

“It’s a resort-style community,” said Erika Geiser, vice president of marketing at Christopher Homes, which already has two other neighborhoods in MacDonald Highlands. “I mean, homeowners who live here say they feel like they’re on vacation every day.”

The homes start in the upper $2 million range and can span up to nearly 6,500 square feet depending on their floor plan, said Kimberly Stuhmer, director of sales at Christopher Homes.
