The Justin is the biggest home Lennar builds at The Henry — a two-story, roughly 4,270-square-foot floor plan in southwest Las Vegas with something most houses this size don't have: a complete private suite built right into it. It's a Next Gen home, Lennar's "home within a home" design, and it's built for the fastest-growing household type in the country — families living across more than one generation under a single roof. Across the roughly 9,600 closings our team at Nevada Real Estate Group has represented, multigenerational buyers are the group whose needs are hardest to satisfy with a standard floor plan, and the Justin is a direct answer to them. This is the home featured in our latest tour.
This guide unpacks the Justin and the Next Gen concept behind it — what the private suite actually includes, how the two-story layout works, what The Henry costs in 2026, and the part most buyers skip: the real financial math of housing a parent or an adult child at home versus the alternatives. It draws on Lennar's and public data plus our own experience representing new-construction buyers, and it's paired with our video tour so you can walk the home for yourself.
The Lennar Justin is a two-story, 4,270-square-foot Next Gen home at The Henry in southwest Las Vegas — 5 bedrooms, 4.5 baths. Its defining feature is a private "home within a home" suite with a separate entrance, kitchenette, living area, bedroom, and full bath. Pricing has recently run from the high $900,000s into the $1.2 million range. For families housing a parent or adult child, that suite is often cheaper than the alternatives.
- The Justin is Lennar's largest Next Gen plan at The Henry — about 4,270 sq ft, 5 bed / 4.5 bath, two stories.
- Its Next Gen suite has a private entrance, kitchenette, living area, bedroom, and full bath.
- Recent pricing ran from roughly $976,990 into the $1.2 million range; confirm current pricing with the builder.
- Every Lennar home is "Everything's Included" — designer upgrades are standard in the base price.
- Multigenerational households are at record highs, and a built-in suite can beat assisted living or a second rent.

What Is the Lennar Justin Next Gen Home in Southwest Las Vegas?
The Justin is a two-story single-family home and the largest of the three plans in The Henry's Two-Stories neighborhood. According to Lennar, it runs about 4,270 square feet with 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms — but the square footage isn't the headline. The headline is what Lennar built into that footprint: a Next Gen private suite, a self-contained living space with its own front door.
That combination is rarer than it sounds. Plenty of builders sell a 4,000-plus-square-foot two-story; very few integrate a fully independent suite into it without turning the rest of the house into a compromise. The Justin keeps a full main home — open great room, kitchen, an owner's suite and additional bedrooms upstairs, a loft — and adds the private quarters alongside it. In our experience representing move-up and multigenerational buyers across the valley, that "no-compromise" layout is exactly what families searching for a multigen home almost never find in resale inventory, which is why new construction like this dominates the segment.
| Feature | Detail |
|---|---|
| Builder | Lennar (Next Gen program) |
| Community | The Henry — Two-Stories, southwest Las Vegas |
| Approx. size | 4,270 sq ft (largest of 3 plans) |
| Bedrooms / baths | 5 bd / 4.5 ba |
| Stories | Two |
| Signature feature | Next Gen private suite — separate entrance, kitchenette, living area, bedroom, full bath |
| Upgrades | Everything's Included — designer features standard |
A note on precision: Lennar prices and configures homes by homesite and updates them weekly, so treat every figure here as a starting point and confirm the exact size, bed count, garage, and current price of a specific Justin homesite with the builder before you write an offer. That's the discipline we apply on every new-construction transaction, and it's why we never let a client rely on an aggregator's cached number.
What Makes a Next Gen "Home Within a Home" Different?
This is the concept that makes the Justin more than a big house. According to Lennar, a Next Gen suite is a private living space attached to the main home with its own separate entrance, a kitchenette, a living area, a bedroom, and a full bathroom — plus, in many configurations, its own laundry and even a dedicated single-car garage bay. It shares the home's roof and address but functions as an independent apartment.
The difference between that and a spare bedroom is the difference between a guest and a resident. A parent, an adult child, a returning college graduate, or a live-in caregiver can have genuine autonomy — come and go through their own door, cook their own breakfast, keep their own hours — while still being one interior door away from family. According to the Pew Research Center, the share of Americans living in multigenerational households has roughly doubled since the 1970s, and privacy is consistently the make-or-break factor in whether those arrangements work. The Next Gen suite is engineered around exactly that need.
How Big Is the Justin, and Who Is It Built For?
At roughly 4,270 square feet, the Justin is built for a household that genuinely needs the room — and increasingly, that means more than the classic nuclear family. The most common buyers we see for a plan like this fall into a few groups: families bringing an aging parent into the home rather than moving them to a facility; parents whose adult children have moved back after college or to save for their own place; and buyers who want a suite for a long-term guest, a live-in nanny, or a home office with its own entrance.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the number of Americans living in multigenerational households has climbed into the tens of millions and hit record levels in recent years, driven by housing costs, longer lifespans, and cultural shifts. A five-bedroom, two-story home with a self-contained suite isn't excess space for these buyers — it's the specification. The Justin's size is a feature, not a luxury, because it lets two generations share a mortgage and a roof without sharing a bathroom or a schedule.
Where Is The Henry Located in Southwest Las Vegas?
The Henry sits in southwest Las Vegas, one of the valley's most active new-construction corridors, near Blue Diamond Crossing and within reach of Exploration Peak Park and the growing retail and dining along the 215 Beltway. It's a compact community — Lennar's materials describe The Henry as a roughly 94-lot neighborhood, with the Two-Stories offering the Justin and its two sibling plans.
Southwest Las Vegas earns its demand honestly. According to the Howard Hughes Corporation and local planning data, the southwest and the 215 corridor have absorbed a large share of the valley's new-home growth because of freeway access to the Strip, the airport, and Summerlin, plus newer schools and parks. For a multigenerational household, that connectivity matters twice over: one commute to work, another to a parent's medical appointments or an adult child's job, all from a single, central base. The Henry puts a Next Gen home in the middle of that.
How Much Does the Justin Cost in 2026?
Here's the pricing picture, framed honestly. Recent Lennar listings put the Justin's base from roughly $976,990, with move-in-ready homesites recently listed in the $1,160,920 to $1,251,398 range depending on lot, upgrades, and inventory timing. Lennar has not fixed a single permanent price — new-construction pricing moves with rates, phase, and homesite — so the numbers below are a snapshot to confirm with the builder, not a quote.
| Line item | Rough figure |
|---|---|
| Purchase price range | ~ $976,990–$1,251,398 |
| Est. price per square foot | ~ $229–$293/sq ft |
| 20% down payment | ~ $195,000–$250,000 |
| Est. Nevada property tax (about 0.5–0.6%/yr) | ~ $5,500–$7,500/year |
| Est. HOA (per aggregator) | about $103/month — confirm with builder |
| Buyer closing costs (about 2–3%) | ~ $22,000–$38,000 |
Two Nevada advantages soften those numbers relative to the coastal states most of our relocating buyers come from. According to the Nevada Department of Taxation and the Clark County Assessor, Nevada's effective property-tax rate is roughly 0.5% to 0.6% of value — low by national standards — and the state has no personal income tax. On a household large enough to need a 4,270-square-foot home, that tax profile can be worth many thousands of dollars a year versus California, which is often the difference that makes a second generation's income go far enough to buy this much house at all.
What Does Lennar's "Everything's Included" Actually Save You?
One reason the Justin's price is easier to underwrite than a comparable custom or semi-custom home is Lennar's pricing philosophy. According to Lennar, its Everything's Included program folds the features most builders sell as costly options — stainless appliances, upgraded quartz or granite counters, designer cabinetry, energy-efficient systems, and smart-home technology — into the base price as standard, at no extra charge.
For a buyer, that changes the shopping experience in two concrete ways. First, the sticker price is closer to the real price: you're not walking into a design center to discover that the home you toured costs $80,000 to $150,000 more once you add the finishes you assumed were included. Second, it simplifies financing, because there's less gap between the contract price and the appraised, upgraded home. In our experience, the design-center surprise is the single biggest source of budget blowups in new construction, and a builder that prices upgrades in rather than up removes that risk. It doesn't mean there are zero choices to make — but it does mean the base is a genuine base.
Why Is Multigenerational Living Growing So Fast in Las Vegas?
The Justin exists because demand for its layout is structural, not fashionable. According to the Pew Research Center, a record number of Americans now live in multigenerational households, and the trend has been rising for decades across nearly every demographic. The drivers are exactly the ones that hit hardest in a fast-growing Sun Belt metro: the cost of housing, the cost of elder care, longer lifespans, and a generation of young adults for whom moving home for a few years is a rational financial move, not a stigma.
Las Vegas amplifies all of it. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the metro's population has grown steadily on the strength of relocation, and a large share of new arrivals come from higher-cost states where an aging parent or an adult child is priced out of an independent home nearby. Bringing that person into a Next Gen suite in Las Vegas — where the tax and cost profile is friendlier — is often the whole reason a family relocates to Las Vegas. The Justin isn't a niche product here. It's a mainstream answer to a mainstream problem.
How Much Can a Next Gen Suite Save vs. Assisted Living or a Second Rent?
This is the math that reframes the price tag. A Next Gen suite looks expensive as a line on a floor plan and cheap as a solution to a real household cost. Consider the two most common alternatives a family weighs.
| Dimension | Assisted living (parent) | Second household (adult child) | Next Gen suite at home |
|---|---|---|---|
| Typical annual cost | ~ $54,000–$72,000/yr | ~ $18,000–$24,000/yr rent | Shared mortgage — no second rent |
| Privacy | Full, but off-site | Full, but separate | Private suite, one door away |
| Family proximity | Low (visits) | Low to moderate | High (same roof) |
| Equity built | None | None (renting) | Into your own home |
According to national cost-of-care surveys such as Genworth's, assisted living runs into the mid-to-high five figures per year, and it climbs. A modest Las Vegas apartment for an adult child runs roughly $1,400 to $1,700 a month, or about $18,000 to $24,000 a year, with nothing to show for it at the end. The Next Gen suite converts those recurring, equity-free costs into a single mortgage on an appreciating asset your family owns. That doesn't make it right for everyone — some families genuinely need the care infrastructure of a facility — but for the many who don't, the suite is the cheaper answer, not the pricier one.
How Does the Two-Story Justin Compare to the Single-Story Eleanor at The Henry?
The Henry gives buyers a real choice within the same community, and it's worth understanding. The Justin is the two-story, maximum-space Next Gen — five bedrooms, a loft, the full private suite, roughly 4,270 square feet. The single-story Eleanor, which we tour in a companion post, is the one-level Next Gen at The Henry for buyers who want multigen living without stairs. We break the Eleanor down in detail in our guide to The Henry's Eleanor Next Gen single-story home.
The short version: choose the Justin when you need the most bedrooms and square footage and don't mind two levels — it's the plan for a large, actively-growing household. Choose a single-story Next Gen when accessibility, aging-in-place, or a no-stairs preference outweighs raw size. Both share the same community, the same Everything's Included standard, and the same Next Gen suite concept — they just solve for different household shapes.

What Should Buyers Know About Buying New Construction From Lennar?
The most important thing to understand about any builder purchase is that the on-site sales agent works for the builder, not for you. That's not a knock — it's their role — but it means the person showing you the Justin is representing Lennar's interests in the price, the homesite premium, the financing incentives, and the contract. According to the Nevada Real Estate Division, buyers are entitled to their own licensed representation, and on nearly every builder transaction that representation costs the buyer nothing because the builder has already budgeted a co-broke commission into the price.
Where independent representation earns its keep on a home like this is in the details: negotiating rate buydowns or closing-cost credits through Lennar's affiliated lender (builders defend base price to protect comps but will move on incentives), timing the homesite and lot-premium selection, reviewing the completion and warranty terms, and making sure the appraisal keeps pace. In our experience, unrepresented buyers are the ones who most often leave incentives on the table — because no one at the table was on their side. It costs you nothing to bring your own agent, and on a million-dollar purchase it can be worth many times its (zero) price.
Is Southwest Las Vegas a Good Place to Buy New Construction in 2026?
For a multigenerational buyer, the answer is yes, with the usual caveat that timing the specific community matters more than timing the macro market. According to Freddie Mac, mortgage rates remain the dominant lever on monthly cost, and on a purchase near or above $1 million, even a half-point difference in rate moves the payment by hundreds of dollars a month — which is exactly why a builder rate buydown is often the most valuable incentive Lennar can offer. Early phases of a community like The Henry can also carry stronger incentives as the builder fills out the neighborhood.
The structural case for the southwest is durable. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Nevada Governor's Office of Economic Development, Southern Nevada keeps diversifying its economy and attracting relocations, and the southwest's freeway access and newer infrastructure make it one of the metro's most liquid resale submarkets. As one of only 789 homes our team closed in 2025 across a $440 million-plus production year would confirm, homes that solve a real household problem — like multigen space — hold demand through rate cycles better than homes that simply offer square footage.
If you're comparing The Henry against other new-home options, it helps to see the full map. Browse the valley's master-planned communities to weigh location, schools, and amenities against southwest Las Vegas, and skim live new construction homes across builders to benchmark price per square foot. And if you already own a home you'd sell to buy the Justin, our seller resources walk through the process — a single-family home with a true private suite tends to draw a deeper buyer pool at resale, which helps support its value through the cycle.
What Should You Ask Before Buying a Next Gen Home?
A Next Gen home adds a few questions a standard purchase doesn't. Before you commit to a Justin homesite, get clear, written answers on the items below.
| Ask about | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Exact plan size + current base price | Lennar prices per homesite and updates weekly |
| Next Gen suite configuration | Confirm entrance, kitchenette, laundry, garage bay for your suite |
| HOA + any sub-association dues | Get the all-in monthly figure in writing |
| Lot premium + homesite | Premiums vary; confirm what you're paying for |
| Incentives (rate buydown / credits) | Usually more negotiable than base price |
| Completion timeline + warranty | New-build schedules and coverage vary |
| Suite rentability / occupancy rules | If you may rent the suite, confirm HOA + city rules first |
The suite-rentability question deserves a flag. Some owners eventually rent a Next Gen suite for income, but short- and long-term rental rules vary by HOA and by Clark County and city ordinance — so if that's part of your plan, confirm what's actually permitted before you buy, not after. We routinely run that check for clients considering a Next Gen home, because the answer can change the entire investment case.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Lennar Justin Next Gen home?
The Justin is Lennar's largest Next Gen plan at The Henry in southwest Las Vegas — a two-story home of about 4,270 square feet with 5 bedrooms and 4.5 baths, including a private Next Gen suite (separate entrance, kitchenette, living area, bedroom, and full bath) built for multigenerational living. Confirm exact size and current price with the builder.
What is a Lennar Next Gen "home within a home"?
It's a private living suite integrated into the main house with its own separate entrance, kitchenette, living area, bedroom, and full bathroom — and often its own laundry and a garage bay. It functions like an independent apartment attached to the home, designed for a parent, adult child, guest, or caregiver.
How much does the Justin cost in 2026?
Recent Lennar listings placed the Justin from roughly $976,990, with move-in homesites listed into the $1.2 million range depending on lot and upgrades. Lennar prices per homesite and updates frequently, so confirm the current number with the builder. Everything's Included upgrades come standard.
Is The Henry a gated community?
That's not confirmed in Lennar's public materials — some aggregators describe it as gated, others don't — so verify gate and guard status directly with the builder for the specific neighborhood before relying on it.
Does "Everything's Included" mean no upgrade costs at all?
It means the designer features most builders sell as costly options — appliances, upgraded counters, cabinetry, smart-home tech — come standard in the base price. You may still choose lot premiums and some selections, but the base is a genuine, livable base, which removes the big design-center surprise.
Can I rent out the Next Gen suite?
Sometimes, but not always — short- and long-term rental rules vary by HOA and by Clark County and city ordinance. If suite income is part of your plan, confirm what's actually permitted before you buy. Call us at (702) 637-1759 and we'll check it for the specific community.
Should I use my own agent to buy a Lennar home?
Yes. The on-site agent represents Lennar. Your own representation typically costs you nothing on a builder purchase and helps you negotiate incentives, review the contract, and manage the appraisal and financing — which on a million-dollar home is real money.
