Welcome to

Lone Mountain

Northwest valley • ≈22,000 housing units • median build-year 1998

Named for the 560-foot butte that rises above it, Lone Mountain blends suburban convenience with pockets of rural charm just north of Summerlin. Roughly 54 500 residents (median age forty; median household income about $87 500) live here in a patchwork of 1990s master-planned tracts, half-acre ranch properties and brand-new hillside estates. Entry-level condos and town-homes begin in the mid-$300,000s, traditional three- and four-bedroom single-family homes run from the mid-$400,000s into the high-$700,000s, and guard-gated golf-course homes or custom hillside builds frequently top the one-million-dollar mark. Architectural variety is wide—stucco contemporaries with tiled roofs sit alongside modern glass-and-steel “mini-estates” by Blue Heron—giving buyers plenty of choice without leaving the northwest valley.

Community Layout & Notable Sub-Neighborhoods

Lone Mountain’s residential map stretches from US-95 west to the 215 Beltway and includes several well-known enclaves. Lone Mountain Heights offers family-friendly parks and easy trail access. Paradise Meadows provides gated, semi-custom homes on quarter-acre lots. Painted Desert delivers a guard-gated, mature-landscaped golf community, while the hillside streets closest to the butte showcase modern, view-oriented estates on oversized lot

Lifestyle, Shopping & Recreation

Lone Mountain Regional Park surrounds the butte with a 3.2-mile perimeter trail, an equestrian arena, pickle-ball and tennis courts, shaded playgrounds and a short but rewarding summit hike. Nearby Majestic Park adds twelve tournament-grade softball fields, while Police Memorial Park offers reflective gardens and dog-friendly lawns. Day-to-day errands stay close to home: Costco, Target, Walmart, specialty grocers, medical offices and dozens of restaurants cluster around Centennial Center, five minutes from most Lone Mountain addresses. Whether it’s ramen at Ichi, tapas at La Casa Cigars & Wine Bar or morning coffee at Bad Owl, residents rarely need a freeway for a good meal.

Commute & Connectivity

Fast on-ramps to both US-95 and the 215 Beltway place Downtown Summerlin about fifteen minutes away, the Las Vegas Strip roughly twenty minutes south-east and Harry Reid International Airport twenty-five minutes door-to-door in typical traffic. Despite the easy freeway reach, several county-designated rural-preservation streets still allow horses, giving the area a rare blend of convenience and elbow room.

Why Buyers Love Lone Mountain

Home-shoppers gravitate here for outdoor living—sunrise summit hikes, equestrian loops and nightly city-light views—combined with larger lots and lower HOA footprints than many nearby master plans. Add plentiful retail, dining and healthcare options without tourist congestion, and Lone Mountain offers a lifestyle that feels both spacious and connected.
