Woodside Homes, Summerlin’s first builder, takes down pads in newest village

Summerlin's first home builder is also one of its newest.

The master plan's developer, The Howard Hughes Corp., said Thursday that Woodside Homes was one of two builders to take down pads in The Cliffs, Summerlin's first new village in more than a decade.

Woodside also built The Hills' Panorama Pointe, Summerlin's first subdivision, in 1991.

Woodside and Lennar, which has been building in the master plan for 20 years, bought two parcels totaling 37 acres in The Cliffs, which is on 450 acres near Patrick Lane and Hualapai Way.

Woodside plans 72 single-family homes of 2,500 to 3,200 square feet in its Skystone neighborhood. Lennar will build 73 homes of 3,100 to 3,800 square feet in a community it calls Jade Ridge.

The builders didn't release pricing information, but the new-home median price in Summerlin is well over $400,000, according to numbers from Home Builders Research.

Toll Brothers will also build Regency, a high-end, age-qualified community, in The Cliffs, though the company hasn't released many details on the homes it plans.

The Cliffs, named for the 600-foot-tall ridgeline backing the village's western edge, will have 1,700 single- and multifamily homes in 11 neighborhoods when it's complete in about five years.
