The New American Home 2020

About The New American Home 2020

Location: Henderson, Nevada (Ascaya community, 20 minutes from the Las Vegas Convention Center)

Ascaya presents the brilliance and charm of the city of Henderson. This tranquil sanctuary from Las Vegas’ spirited atmosphere exhibits a combination of earth, natural stone, and the beautiful McCullough mountain ranges enclosing the hillside development of 313 luxury estate home sites that help to capture a “contemporary desert” aesthetic. Sensitive to sustainable practices without sacrificing beauty of luxury, a major portion of Ascaya is set aside as open space to maintain the magnificence of the natural desert mountain landscape. 

The breath-taking features of impressive topography, vegetation and wildlife blend well with the panoramic views of the city and the surrounding foothills. The “modern contemporary” design was inspired by the land itself. This concept represents current trends towards sleek, clean and simple lines, minimal décor, abundant light and flat rooflines that match the surrounding foothills.
