Pardee to open Montclaire this weekend

Pardee Homes is welcoming new home shoppers indoors for the grand opening of its newest neighborhood -- Montclaire -- today and Sunday. According to Pardee Homes' Regional Sales Director Rob Tuvell, the theme of the event is, "If you can't stand the heat, get into the kitchen," and refreshments will be offered in each of the four model homes as well as a special tie-in with Williams-Sonoma. Buyers in the first phase will receive a $1,000 Williams-Sonoma gift card, courtesy of Pardee.

"It's July in Southern Nevada and it's hot," Tuvell said. "We want to give home shoppers a reason get out of the heat and come inside to tour these well-designed and appointed models homes, each with a showcase kitchen."

The neighborhood is located in Henderson just south of St. Rose Parkway at Horizon Ridge Parkway and Jeffreys Street.

According to Tuvell, through Pardee's EnergySmart program, the homes are enhanced with money-saving and energy-efficient features such as selective glass that helps keep the homes cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter as well as increased ceiling insulation and sealed ducts for improved air quality. Every EnergySmart home is designed and independently certified to exceed local energy codes.
