Valley Vista Homes for Sale
This was supposed to be Park Highlands, a boom-era megaproject that sold for $639 million at a 2005 federal land auction and then went bankrupt twice without a single home built. SunCal acquired the failed western half, re-entitled it, and reopened it as Valley Vista: roughly 600 acres of new-construction North Las Vegas now built mainly by D.R. Horton and Lennar.
About Valley Vista
Valley Vista is a master-planned community of about 600 acres in North Las Vegas, near Decatur Boulevard and Elkhorn Road by the Aliante area. Its history is a comeback story. The land was part of Park Highlands, bought at a 2005 Bureau of Land Management auction for $639 million, which then stalled through two bankruptcies. The site was later split, and SunCal redeveloped the western 600 acres, rebranding it Valley Vista. Buyers still see the old Park Highlands West name in older materials.
Homes and Pricing
The master developer is SunCal, which entitled the land and sold finished parcels to homebuilders. D.R. Horton opened the community and, with Lennar, builds most of it across a range of village neighborhoods, single-family and townhome.
- An estimated 3,500 to 4,100 homes planned at build-out
- Floor plans from roughly 1,200 to 4,400 square feet, one and two story
- Active listings from the low $300,000s into the $700,000s for the largest plans
Amenities and Lifestyle
Valley Vista was planned with shared open space rather than a single clubhouse.
- Three public parks totaling around 25 acres, including Galaxy Park
- A community pool and a paseo and walking-trail network
- A neighborhood elementary school and roughly 21 acres set aside for retail
Location and Commute
The community sits in northern North Las Vegas in the 89084 ZIP code, near the Aliante Casino and the 215 Beltway corridor. North Las Vegas is its own incorporated city, which matters for taxes and municipal services.
Who Lives Here
Valley Vista is still actively building and selling, so it draws new-construction buyers who want to pick a floor plan and lot at a relatively accessible North Las Vegas price. The trade-off is the usual new-construction one: model-home traffic, builder timelines, and a special improvement district (SID) assessment funding the infrastructure.
