Shea Homes at Ardiente features Monaco home

Shea Homes at Ardiente, an age-qualified resort lifestyle community in North Las Vegas, is offering designer home models with versatile floor plans.

“Shea Homes at Ardiente is bringing advanced housing options to Nevada,” said Ardiente’s community manager, Kyle Tibbitts. “Simply put, homeowners are looking for a unique community to enhance their lives, as well as designer home models ready for them to begin living in their dream home.”

One example of these designer home models is the Monaco. The Monaco measures 1,583 square feet with two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a two-car garage starting in the low $200,000s. This model offers an open-concept design with a great room, kitchen, informal dining space and sunlit den/library. The Monaco’s kitchen offers diverse dining options from a casual family environment serving food from an island to the breakfast nook surrounded by bay windows.

Based on a recent Residential Landscape Architecture Trends survey, outdoor living spaces are an important consideration and the Monaco is tapping into this trend.

Ardiente believes outdoor living is a vital part of the Shea lifestyle, which is why this design has an outdoor covered patio that can be personalized with an optional fireplace, as well as an optional front courtyard, allowing for ideal desert living and evenings under the stars with all the comforts of the inside, Tibbitts said.

“No matter which home is best suited for our homebuyers, Ardiente equips each model with SheaXero features as an included feature,” he said.

The SheaXero’s solar and energy-efficient features are included in the home’s base price, he added.

SheaXero utilizes a SolarCity system, plus 14 energy-saving features, such as Trane energy-efficient heating and cooling systems, low-e3 vinyl windows and cathedralized attic insulation.

Through this system, SheaXero reduces and helps to eliminate electric bills that can and save homeowners as much as $3,000 a year, Tibbitts said.

SheaXero homes also include award-winning design features that allow abundant natural light, open floor plans, ergonomic vanity counter tops and its signature Five Sided Architecture.

“We find joy in saving homeowners money, but what’s even more inspiring to us is how excited our residents are to safeguard the environment for their kids and grandkids,” Tibbitts said.

Over the next decade, the 1,000 SheaXero homes sold to date will save 84.8 million pounds of carbon dioxide, which is equivalent to taking 8,000 cars off the road or planting 720,000 trees — enough trees to fill Central Park 30 times, he said.

At the core of the community is a 20,000-square-foot club, featuring two resort-style pools, fitness center, group exercise studio, access to miles of walking trails and billiards and game rooms.
