The dramatic entryway to the community
center at Sun City Aliante. This Sun City is
noted for its low cost heating and cooling and for
its no-upkeep, water-wise landscaping. |
Sun City Aliante
Sun City Aliante is part of the
new Aliante master-planned community in the northern Las
Vegas Valley. There are almost a dozen separate
neighborhoods in Aliante, as well as a Sun City. This
area is generally considered to be more affordable than
Summerlin or some other neighborhoods in the southern or
western parts of the Valley.

The Nature
Discovery Park at Aliante with the enclosed children's play area
in the back. This part of Aliante is totally
separate from Sun City. |
Sun City Aliante offers homes
for people age 55+ that range from a 2 bedroom, 1,155
sq. ft., home to a 2,105 sq. ft. model with 2
bedrooms and a Library/den.
These homes were definitely
designed with savings in mind. Desert-style
landscaping in the front of the home and back is
included on all homes -- which can mean a considerable
savings both on the cost of initial plantings and in
on-going water-usage.
Additionally, the homes have
been designed to reduce annual heating and cooling costs
drastically and the costs are guaranteed by the builder,
Pulte. In the Las Vegas Valley, air
conditioning bills can be significant--if a home has not
been constructed to reduce those costs.
Fortunately these have.

Homes line the lake
on the golf course in Sun City Aliante.
All landscaping at Aliante--both around homes
and around the common areas--consists of
water-wise desert plants. |
A large clubhouse offer
residents a full range of activities including fitness,
swimming, bocce courts, card rooms, computer facilities,
tennis, a restaurant and more. The golf course is
relatively flat -- compared to the steep Revere golf
course in Sun City Anthem or the Eagles Crest course in
Sun City Summerlin.
Sun City Aliante is very close
to the 215 Beltway that encircles the Las Vegas Valley
and that means access to other parts of the Valley is
easier.
