Lake Las Vegas – Tri Pointe Homes marked a new chapter in resort-style development with the launch of sales at Lakeview Ridge, a gated enclave offering 54 customizable residences amid scenic waterfront surroundings.[1][2]
Celebrity Designer Elevates the Models
Bobby Berk, known from television hits like “Queer Eye” and “Junk or Jackpot,” crafted the three model homes at Lakeview Ridge. His decade-long partnership with Tri Pointe Homes began with a show home for the International Builders’ Show and has since spanned dozens of Las Vegas projects.[1]
Buyers benefit from the BB Edit Program, which lets them select from Berk’s curated collections for furnishings and finishes. This collaboration adds a layer of sophistication to what Tri Pointe calls its “affordable luxury” lineup. Klif Andrews, division president for Tri Pointe Homes, highlighted how these touches pair with the community’s natural appeal.[1]
Versatile Floor Plans Cater to Varied Needs
The community features three floor plans, each emphasizing open layouts and customization options like glass staircases, pivot doors, and spa-style showers. Residences range from 2,500 to nearly 4,000 square feet, with every home including a gated courtyard entry.[1][3]
| Floor Plan | Square Feet | Bedrooms/Baths | Starting Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Residence 1 | 2,579 | 3/2.5 | $890,000 |
| Residence 2 | 3,356 | 3-5/2.5-4.5 | $991,000 |
| Residence 3 | 3,780-3,991 | 4/4.5 | $1,053,000 |
Residence 1 stands out as the sole single-story option, complete with a primary suite boasting a sloping ceiling. Residence 2 tempts with its downstairs primary suite and flex bonus room, while the expansive Residence 3 offers garage choices up to three cars. Andrews noted that many visitors start with the single-story plan but often upgrade for added space and views.[1]
Indoor-Outdoor Living Suits Lake Las Vegas Lifestyle
Large sliding windows and doors foster seamless connections between interiors and exteriors, capturing lake and mountain vistas. The design aligns with Lake Las Vegas’ resort amenities, including walking paths, golf courses, water recreation, a sports club, and The Village town center.[2]
Tri Pointe incorporates its LivingSmart program for sustainability, covering energy efficiency, water conservation, and health-focused features. The architecture by Bassenian Lagoni draws on modern desert motifs integrated with the terrain. Such elements target empty nesters and child-free couples drawn to the area’s relaxed vibe, as Andrews observed.[1]
- Gated courtyards for privacy
- Optional GenSmart Suites for multigenerational living
- Covered outdoor spaces for year-round enjoyment
- Spacious primary suites with direct outdoor access in select plans
Quick Sales Signal Strong Demand
Sales at Lakeview Ridge progressed swiftly, with four homes under contract shortly after launch. Prices hold steady in the high $800,000s to just over $1 million, distinguishing it from pricier neighbors like Tri Pointe’s La Cova at $2 million and up.[1]
“There’s a lot of luxury touches that are still, kind of, at what I would call an affordable price point,” Andrews said. “We can combine this affordable luxury with great views.” The builder plans four additional communities across the Las Vegas Valley this year.[1]
