Couple finds home at Bella Lago
After living in the same house in California for 40 years, Kimberly and Chauncey Abney recently purchased a new home at Richmond American’s Bella Lago community on the south side of the Las Vegas Valley near Southern Highlands.
The Abneys considered buying another home in California, but decided to purchase in Las Vegas because of how much they could get for their money.
“There were million-dollar homes with only 1,500 square feet in California. We would have to move way out of the city to find something we could even afford,” Kimberly Abney said.
The Abneys chose the Verona floor plan, which features three to five bedrooms and 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 baths in about 2,850 square feet.
Priced from the $390,000s, the Verona is one of three floor plans in Richmond American’s Altezza Collection featured at Bella Lago. Also available is the Tuscana, priced from the $360,000s, with three to five bedrooms and 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 baths in 2,700 square feet.
The Cassandra is the largest of the three plans at Bella Lago, offering four to seven bedrooms and 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 baths in 3,000 square feet. Priced from the low $400,000s, the plan is highlighted by a first-floor study and a second-level library, both of which can be converted into additional bedrooms. Like the other two floor plans, this design includes an attic loft, which can be used as a bedroom suite.
Located at 7770 S. Dean Martin Drive, the Home Gallery is a 22,000-square-foot retail space offering a number of home-buying resources in one location. In addition to a complete design center where buyers can browse options and upgrades, the Home Gallery offers helpful information for those searching for a home.
New home specialists and information kiosks assist visitors in searching floor plans and communities throughout the Las Vegas Valley. Mortgage counselors from Richmond American’s affiliate, HomeAmerican Mortgage Corp., are on hand to answer financing questions.
