2019 Show Home Boasts Never-Before-Seen Architecture

Even before officially unveiling The New American Home 2018 in January during the International Builders’ Show (IBS) in Orlando, construction on the 2019 edition was already well underway in Las Vegas.


NAHB began the process of selecting the builder several years ago and heard proposals from many industry-leading builders. Sun West Custom Homes — whose pitch illustrated a spacious, state-of-the-art home with breathtaking views — ultimately won the contract for the 2019 project, which broke ground in late 2017.


Sun West is building the home in Ascaya, a luxury-home gated community in Henderson, just outside of Las Vegas. The hillside location is perfect for achieving those city views, especially for such an expansive home — 7,126 square feet of living space on a single-story floor plan. The home was designed and being built to achieve the National Green Building Standards (NGBS) “Emerald” designation. 


Dan Coletti, president of Sun West, is excited for the opportunity to showcase what he asserts as never-before-seen architecture that goes beyond the typical definitions of “open concept” and “outdoor living.”


“Transitions between living areas will be so seamless, it’ll be hard to tell where the home’s interior ends and the outside begins,” said Coletti, whose company is also overseeing design. “The indoor/outdoor living areas, courtyard, study and four-car garage will all blend together, while still maintaining their unique qualities.”


The five-bed, five-bath home will be particularly appealing to car connoisseurs. Its finished garage not only serves as a showroom floor visible from various locations throughout the home, but it’s also a well-equipped, air-conditioned game room.


More details about this home — as well as its counterpart, The New American Remodel 2019 — will be coming throughout the months ahead, leading up to their official debuts at IBS 2019 Feb. 19-21.
