CRIME DATA

Living in Skystone means luxury contemporary homes on elevated lots with panoramic Red Rock Canyon views, five-minute access to Downtown Summerlin, and the full Howard Hughes Corporation infrastructure — 150 miles of trails, top-rated schools, and the master plan that the Howard Hughes Corporation has refined for over three decades. It's Summerlin's westernmost luxury tier before open desert.
Skystone is known for luxury contemporary floor plans on premium elevated lots, many with panoramic Red Rock Canyon and Strip views, within The Cliffs — one of Summerlin's westernmost and highest-elevation villages. National builders deliver 3,000–5,000+ SF homes with open-concept layouts and desert-contemporary architecture at prices that undercut comparable Bay Area or LA hillside properties by 60–70%.
California relocators who want luxury views without coastal prices, executives needing contemporary space with direct Red Rock access, and families targeting Sig Rogich Middle School (10/10) and Palo Verde High School (8/10) zoning. Buyers who prioritize gated seclusion typically look at The Ridges nearby — Skystone trades the staffed gate for more space and a lower entry price.
Morning hikes or bike rides on Summerlin's 150-mile trail system directly from your front door, five minutes to Downtown Summerlin's shops and restaurants, and an easy ten-minute drive to Red Rock Canyon's scenic loop for more serious outdoor pursuits — all from a luxury contemporary home with Red Rock views framing your western windows.
Skystone at The Cliffs sits in The Cliffs village on Summerlin's western edge in Las Vegas, Nevada, ZIP 89135.

POPULATION & GROWTH
The Cliffs village continues to add new construction phases as Howard Hughes Corporation releases premium lots — growth here is deliberate and supply-managed, which is the land-scarcity argument for buying early in an active phase. ZIP 89135 grew from 24,144 residents in the 2010 Census to 31,763 in 2020, and Summerlin's western villages remain among the most in-demand addresses in the metro.
Howard Hughes Corporation controls land release across all Summerlin villages, including The Cliffs — which means Skystone lots don't compete with a flood of new supply. Each phase releases a finite set of premium elevated lots, and demand from California relocators and valley move-up buyers consistently outpaces that release. Buying in an active phase gives access to the best remaining lot selection; buying resale gives immediate occupancy in an established neighborhood with mature landscaping.

Build a property-specific budget using a lender quote, the parcel tax estimate, insurance quotes and association documents. The starting amounts below are editable illustrations, not current local rates or verified fees. Compare the result with your Loan Estimate, and budget separately for maintenance, utilities and closing costs.
Inputs are assumptions, not a loan offer, insurance quote or parcel tax calculation. This simplified fixed-rate example applies the selected PMI rate below 20% down; actual mortgage-insurance eligibility, cost and cancellation depend on the loan. Maintenance, utilities, closing costs and special assessments are additional. Review the CFPB housing budget guide and confirm amounts with the relevant providers.
BUYING AND RENTING
Compare actual homes that meet the same needs over your expected time in the area. A purchase price and an advertised rent alone do not establish which option costs less. Use current quotes and separate monthly cash flow, upfront cash, and the amount you might recover when moving.
Start with the down payment, lender and closing charges, and any immediate repairs. Add principal and interest, property taxes, insurance, mortgage insurance where applicable, association dues, utilities and ongoing maintenance. Identify expenses paid outside escrow so they are included in your household budget.
For a later sale, model the remaining loan balance and selling expenses. Appreciation is uncertain; compare unchanged-price and lower-price cases as well as any growth assumption. Principal repayment builds an ownership interest, but that does not guarantee a profit or make every cash payment recoverable.
Use an actual lease offer and confirm the term, deposit, renewal provisions, parking, pet charges, utilities and renter's insurance. Record which maintenance services are included and any costs or restrictions associated with an early move. An advertised starting rent may not include every required charge.
Keep the comparison consistent: use the same time period, household needs and moving assumptions. Include the cash that remains available when a down payment is not used, without assuming a guaranteed investment return. Your need for flexibility and responsibility for repairs also matter alongside the financial figures.
There is no verified community-wide holding period or five-year equity gain shown here. Ask your lender to explain financing assumptions and have a tax professional assess any claimed tax benefit for your circumstances. Keep a copy of the quotes and dates so you can update the comparison before making an offer.
PROPERTY-SPECIFIC ASSOCIATION COSTS
A community name does not establish a property's current dues or all the associations that govern it. Obtain the applicable resale package, budget and governing documents for the exact address. Confirm the effective date and payment frequency of each fee with the association or its manager.
Identify master and sub-association dues separately. Check whether utilities, exterior maintenance, insurance, amenities or club access are included, optional or billed separately. A listing's monthly figure may omit a quarterly or annual charge, and an advertised amenity does not establish membership rights.
Ask about transfer, document, capital-contribution and other transaction fees, as well as approved or proposed assessments. Confirm who pays each item under the contract. Review available reserve and budget information; historical dues are not a guarantee of future charges.
Verify the actual rules for leasing, pets, parking, property changes and amenity access. Age restrictions and gate staffing require their own current documentation. Do not assume neighboring subdivisions or similarly named communities have identical rules, services or fees.
COMMUTE & TRANSPORTATION
The Cliffs village feeds into Summerlin Parkway and Charleston Boulevard, connecting quickly to I-215 and I-15. Mean Las Vegas commutes run about 25 minutes per U.S. Census ACS data; most Skystone destinations beat that comfortably except the Strip (~20 min) and airport (~30 min). Test the Strip run at rush hour before committing.
Drive times are typical off-peak estimates for the route named; check live traffic before you rely on one.
Quick Answer
Resale purchases in Skystone close in 30–45 days through a Nevada escrow company; cash deals close in 7–14. New construction runs 4–10 months from contract to keys. Jumbo files on view-lot purchases occasionally need extra appraisal time when ridgeline comps are thin. Call (702) 637-1759 to match your timeline to the right inventory.
Quick Answer
Most Skystone buyers put down 20–25%. On a $1.1 million area-median home, plan $220,000 (20%) to $275,000 (25%) at closing. Homes above the conforming loan limit require jumbo financing — most lenders want 20–25% down plus 12 months of liquid reserves. VA loans allow 0% for eligible veterans; verify the appraised value matches the contract on premium view-lot purchases, where comps can be sparse.
Skystone at The Cliffs FAQ — 18 Answers
Skystone homes range $950,000–$1.7 million as of mid-2026, per $915,000 area benchmark data from Las Vegas REALTORS. Elevated lots with panoramic Red Rock Canyon and Strip views, ZIP 89135, and Summerlin master-plan amenities support pricing above the broader Cliffs village average. Lot elevation and builder-tier upgrades determine where any specific home lands inside that range.
Skystone is inside The Cliffs village — one of the westernmost Summerlin villages in Las Vegas, ZIP 89135, developed by Howard Hughes Corporation. Village placement governs your sub-association, nearest parks, trail access, and school zoning. From Skystone, Downtown Summerlin is about five minutes east and Red Rock Canyon's scenic loop is roughly ten minutes west on Charleston Boulevard. It is the last Summerlin village before open desert, which is exactly what delivers the elevated view lots.
Yes — elevated lot placement is Skystone's primary draw. Many home sites sit high enough on The Cliffs village ridgeline to capture panoramic Red Rock Canyon views to the west and Strip skyline views to the east. Not every lot delivers the full double-exposure panorama: north-facing and interior lots may have partial or neighbor-facing outlooks. Request the precise lot elevations before making your offer — our agents pull the topographic survey and compare current active listings to find the view tier you need.
Skystone's ZIP code is 89135 — The Cliffs village address on Summerlin's western edge in Las Vegas. Filtering your MLS search to 89135 keeps comps clean because Summerlin spans multiple ZIP codes with meaningfully different price bands. The 89135 envelope covers the highest-elevation Summerlin lots and commands a pricing premium over the broader master plan. Give us the ZIP and your budget and we will build the search for you.
Budget $95–$230 per month for HOA dues in Skystone, combining the Summerlin master-association fee with your sub-association assessment. That range covers common-area maintenance, trail access across Summerlin's 150-mile network, and the village amenity program. Exact dues, reserve-study status, and any pending special assessments vary by sub-association — request the full resale package during due diligence. Our team reviews HOA documents on every Skystone purchase we represent so you know total carrying cost before you close.
Clark County School District serves Skystone with John C. Vanderburg Elementary (8/10 per GreatSchools), Sig Rogich Middle School (10/10 — among Nevada's highest-rated public middles), and Palo Verde High School (8/10). Private options include The Meadows School, Bishop Gorman, and Faith Lutheran; charters include Doral Academy Red Rock and Pinecrest Academy of Nevada. Confirm current zoning directly with CCSD during escrow — our team runs a school-boundary check on every buyer file.
The Strip is approximately twenty minutes from Skystone via Summerlin Parkway and I-15. Harry Reid International Airport runs about thirty minutes via I-215 South. Downtown Summerlin's 125+ shops and restaurants are roughly five minutes east on Charleston Boulevard, and Red Rock Canyon's 13-mile scenic loop is about ten minutes west. Most residents handle day-to-day errands inside Summerlin entirely — airport runs and Strip visits are the main outbound drives.
Skystone is not a guard-gated community — it is a new-construction single-family neighborhood within the master-planned Summerlin framework, open to community traffic. Residents gain the security and quiet character of an established master plan, with park access, trail connections, and Howard Hughes Corporation's infrastructure behind every street. Buyers who specifically need a staffed gate typically look at The Ridges or Red Rock Country Club nearby; our agents can walk through the trade-offs between gated seclusion and the open-community lifestyle.
National builders have been active across The Cliffs village — including Toll Brothers, Lennar, and Richmond American — delivering luxury contemporary floor plans from roughly 3,000 to 5,000-plus square feet on the elevated lots that define Skystone. Builder incentives, included options, and premium-lot premiums change quarterly; verify current offerings directly with each builder's on-site sales team before you go under contract. Our agents work with every active Cliffs-village builder and can run a side-by-side comparison before your first appointment.
Both exist in and around Skystone. The broader Cliffs village still has active new-construction phases from national builders on premium elevated lots. Resale opportunities arise as earlier-phase buyers sell — often with mature landscaping, upgraded appliances, and premium-lot premiums already baked into the price. New construction typically means a longer timeline (4–10 months from contract to keys) and builder-contract negotiation; resale closes on a standard 30–45 day Nevada escrow timeline. Call us at (702) 637-1759 to compare what is active right now.
Nevada levies zero personal income tax — a five-figure annual saving for most California relocators. Per the California Franchise Tax Board, California's top marginal rate is 13.3%. A household earning $400,000 saves roughly $36,000 per year in state income taxes simply by establishing Nevada residency. Pair that with Clark County's effective property-tax rate of approximately 0.5–0.75% and the 3% annual cap on primary-residence assessments under Nevada Revised Statutes 361.4723, and Skystone's $950K–$1.7M price tag competes on total cost with Bay Area homes at half the space.
Nevada's effective property-tax rate runs approximately 0.5–0.75% of a home's assessed value per the Clark County Assessor, and the state caps annual increases on a primary residence at 3% under Nevada Revised Statutes 361.4723 once the owner claims it (homes that are not owner-occupied get a cap of up to 8%). On a $1.1 million Skystone home, that translates to roughly $5,500–$8,250 per year — predictable, escalation-capped carrying costs. Compare that with California's uncapped Proposition 19 reassessments on transfers, and Nevada's structure becomes part of the financial case for moving here.
Skystone occupies the luxury tier within The Cliffs village — larger floor plans, more elevated lots, and higher price points than earlier-phase Cliffs neighborhoods like Ironwood at The Cliffs. Within the broader Summerlin West area, Skystone competes with The Ridges (guard-gated, from ~$2M+) and Red Rock Country Club (golf-course gated, from ~$1.2M). Skystone's open-community access, contemporary architecture, and $950K–$1.7M pricing give buyers meaningful value relative to those gated alternatives for comparable or larger square footage.
Skystone's Cliffs village address puts Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area — roughly 195,000 acres managed by the Bureau of Land Management — about ten minutes west on Charleston Boulevard. The 13-mile scenic loop, world-class sandstone climbing, and dozens of named hiking trails start there. Closer, the Summerlin Trail System's 150-mile network connects directly from Skystone to parks, schools, and Downtown Summerlin. Fox Hill Park and The Paseos Linear Park are within the immediate neighborhood fabric.
Yes — our team has represented buyers and sellers throughout The Cliffs village and across the Summerlin West area. We handle lot-elevation analysis, builder-contract negotiation, HOA document review, and relocation coordination for out-of-state buyers. Call (702) 637-1759 or start your search online — we typically schedule same-day appointments and can arrange virtual tours for California and out-of-state buyers who need to see Skystone before flying in.
Most Skystone buyers put down 10–20%. On a $1.1 million home — the approximate area median — plan $110,000 (10%) to $220,000 (20%) at closing. Homes above the current conforming loan limit require jumbo financing, where lenders typically want 20–25% down plus 12 months of reserves. VA loans allow 0% for eligible veterans; confirm the appraised value matches the contract price on premium view lots, where comps are sometimes sparse. Call (702) 637-1759 and we will connect you with a Summerlin-experienced lender before you start touring.
Resale purchases in Skystone close in 30–45 days through a Nevada escrow company — cash deals can close in 7–14. New construction runs 4–10 months from contract execution to keys, depending on the builder's current build schedule and the phase. Jumbo files on premium lots occasionally need extra appraisal time when view-lot comps are thin. Our team tracks every active phase in The Cliffs village so you know the realistic timeline before you commit.
The Cliffs village — and Skystone's elevated-lot tier within it — has held value consistently because Howard Hughes Corporation controls land release across Summerlin, limiting supply. Premium view lots on the ridgeline appreciate faster than interior lots in flat-plane neighborhoods. Nevada's zero income tax and 3% property-tax cap keep carrying costs predictable over a multi-decade hold. Over a 5–10 year horizon, the combination of supply discipline, view-lot scarcity, and tax structure has rewarded buyers who chose The Cliffs — verify with our team's closed-transaction data before you write.

Yes — Skystone is a neighborhood within The Cliffs village of Summerlin, the master-planned community developed by Howard Hughes Corporation in Las Vegas, ZIP 89135. Residents get full access to the Summerlin amenity network: 150 miles of trails, 200+ parks, and the Downtown Summerlin retail hub five minutes east.
Elevated ridgeline lots on the western side of The Cliffs village offer the best Red Rock Canyon views; lots on the eastern side of the neighborhood can capture Strip skyline views at night. The specific view depends on lot elevation, orientation, and which builder phase the home was built in — our agents pull the topographic survey and compare elevations before you make an offer.
Both new construction and resale exist in and around Skystone. Active builder phases from national builders including Toll Brothers and Lennar are delivering new homes on elevated lots in The Cliffs village; resale opportunities arise from earlier phases with mature landscaping and upgrades already paid for. New construction takes 4–10 months to close; resale closes in 30–45 days.
The Summerlin Trail System spans 150+ miles connecting villages, parks, schools, and Downtown Summerlin through paved and natural paths. The trailhead access from The Cliffs village connects directly to this network, giving Skystone residents bike and pedestrian access to Downtown Summerlin in about 30 minutes and to Fox Hill Park and The Paseos Linear Park in five.
Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area is approximately ten minutes from Skystone via West Charleston Boulevard — the BLM-managed conservation area covers roughly 195,000 acres with a 13-mile scenic loop, world-class sandstone climbing, and dozens of named hiking trails. It is the closest Las Vegas luxury neighborhood to the canyon's primary entrance.
Toll Brothers, Lennar, and Richmond American have been active in The Cliffs village delivering luxury contemporary floor plans on elevated lots. Builder incentives, available lots, and included features change quarterly — verify current active phases directly with each builder's on-site sales team, or call us at (702) 637-1759 for a current phase comparison.
Skystone offers open-community contemporary homes on elevated view lots at $950K–$1.7M; The Ridges is Summerlin's guard-gated ultra-luxury enclave starting near $2M+ with Bear's Best golf and a staffed gate. Buyers choosing Skystone trade the staffed gate for more square footage per dollar and direct trail access; buyers choosing The Ridges trade down slightly on size for the gated exclusivity and golf-course living.
Plan approximately 20 minutes from Skystone to the Strip via Summerlin Parkway and I-15 — longer than more central Las Vegas addresses, but consistent with other western Summerlin villages. Test the commute at rush hour before committing; most Skystone residents find day-to-day life stays entirely within the Summerlin corridor, with Strip and airport runs as the primary outbound drives.

Every statistic on this page is sourced from a primary or government dataset, refreshed monthly. Because Skystone at The Cliffs is a sub-neighborhood within The Cliffs village, we present ZIP 89135 area benchmarks rather than neighborhood-only medians — samples at the neighborhood level are too small to be statistically meaningful.

Methodology: Listing counts, prices and days on market are NREG's analysis of Las Vegas REALTORS MLS data received through the Repliers feed; this page refreshes them about once a day, and each market figure carries its date or window. Census and BLS figures are the published vintage named beside them and change only when the agency releases new estimates.
