Exec: Variety abundant at Summerlin

     With more than 250 model homes and 300 floor plans by 30 builders in 70 neighborhoods, the master-planned community of Summerlin is home to a variety of residents, according to W. Stewart Gibbons, executive vice president of The Howard Hughes Corp.
      "Just as quality has become the hallmark of Summerlin, variety is equally abundant," Gibbons said of the options buyers have when choosing a home. "From its inception, Summerlin was designed as a fully integrated community, a place where a variety of residents could live, work and play."
      The community consists of 12 villages in various stages of development. Each village has a park or golf course and trails.
      Home styles range from single- and two-story homes to townhomes, condominiums and apartments. Prices range from the mid-$80,000s to more than $500,000.
      Custom lots measuring one-quarter acre to one-third acre and priced from $90,000 to $300,000 are also offered. Pre-designed custom homes built by featured builders are priced from $500,000 to more than $1 million.
      The community is home to two Tournament Players Club golf courses, three Sun City courses and two Arnold Palmer-designed courses. The community will eventually be home to about 15 golf courses.
      In addition, the community features nine city parks, more than 40 neighborhood parks and more than 40 completed miles of the 100-mile Summerlin Trail system.
      To visit, take Summerlin Parkway to Town Center Drive, turn north, then turn east on Hillwood Drive. Or, take Sahara Avenue to Blue Willow Lane, west of Hualapai Way, and turn south.
      Both sales centers are open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
