Copperhead Ranch home buyers Jacob and Mindy Moody describe the LBM Development neighborhood in the southwestern valley as a "location of a lifetime."

"All the homes are uniquely positioned to offer a wonderful view of Red Rock and the surrounding countryside. The community allows us to enjoy all the rewards of the city while residing in a peaceful, rural environment. It's a great place to raise a family," Jacob Moody said.

The neighborhood offers one- and two-story homes priced from the low $100,000s.

The Moodys purchased the two-story, three-bedroom Ponderosa model.

"To make a good home deal even better, LBM Development included granite kitchen counter tops and raised-panel doors as standard features, and not upgraded options. We love the layout of our new home," Moody said.

Interior features include Colonist doors and trim, ceramic-tile entries, plant shelves, textured walls, vaulted ceilings, media centers and laundry rooms.

Kitchens offer whitewash, maple or alder cabinets; upgraded appliances; and a water line to the refrigerator space. Other amenities include finished garages and ceramic-tile tub and shower surrounds.

Every home also includes ground-mounted air-conditioning units, gas heating, front-yard landscaping with irrigation, block walls, concrete-tile roofs and three-coat stucco exteriors. They are also prewired for cable TV, telephone and ceiling fans.

To visit, take Tropicana Avenue to Durango Drive, head south to Oquendo Road and turn east.

The sales office is open daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
