Somersett is a 2,391-acre master plan in the foothills of northwest Reno, between Peavine Mountain and the Sierra Nevada, with two golf courses, two clubhouses and 27 miles of trails that the Somersett Owners Association trails and parks page says are open to the public. I-80 runs along its south side: downtown Reno is 12 to 17 minutes and Reno-Tahoe International Airport 16 to 21 minutes by our free-flow road model. Nevada has no state income tax.
Somersett is known for golf and trails: the private, member-owned Somersett Golf & Country Club, the association's nine-hole Canyon Nine course, The Club at Town Center, and 27 miles of association trails that are open to the public. It also holds Sierra Canyon, the Del Webb 55+ section.
Somersett suits buyers who want trail access and a clubhouse in northwest Reno, golfers willing to join a private club, active adults considering Sierra Canyon resales, and households who want several home types within one master association.
Residents use The Club at Town Center for pools, fitness and tennis and the association trails for walks and rides, and two City of Reno parks sit inside the community. By our free-flow road model, downtown Reno is 12 to 17 minutes, Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe 39 to 48 minutes and Incline Village on Lake Tahoe 54 to 65 minutes; winter storms add time on the Mount Rose Highway.
Somersett sits in the foothills of northwest Reno (ZIP 89523), between Peavine Mountain to the north and the Sierra Nevada to the west, with I-80 and the Truckee River canyon to the south. Sampled ground elevations run about 5,000–5,400 ft (USGS). 12 to 17 minutes from downtown Reno by our free-flow road model.

Quick Answer
It depends on what you need. Somersett gives residents The Club at Town Center, the association's Canyon Nine course and 27 miles of association trails that are open to the public, and the private Somersett Golf & Country Club is on site for members. Downtown Reno is 12 to 17 minutes away by our free-flow road model. The trade-offs: master and possible sub-association dues, foothill snow, and longer drives to south Reno and Lake Tahoe.

POPULATION & GROWTH
Census counts for ZIP 89523 rose from 31,373 in 2010 to 36,646 in 2020, a 16.8% gain while Somersett's phases filled in. The 2020–2024 American Community Survey estimate is 37,130. We do not publish a projection.
Most of the change came between 2010 and 2020. The ACS figure is a survey estimate with a margin of error, so read the small rise since 2020 as roughly flat.

New Construction
Most Somersett homes are resales. The only builder in the Somersett Owners Association's builder directory is Desert Wind Homes, which is selling Brae Retreat, a gated enclave (checked September 26, 2026). Earlier phases came from builders including Del Webb (Sierra Canyon, now resale only), Toll Brothers (The Cliffs at Somersett) and Ryder Homes (The Pointe at Somersett); none of them lists a Somersett community today. Ask what a builder's price includes and whether incentives require a specific lender.
Outdoor Recreation
Somersett's own amenities are the association's 27-mile trail system, which the Somersett Owners Association trails and parks page says is open to the public, plus The Club at Town Center and the Canyon Nine course; the golf club is private. Two City of Reno parks sit inside the community. Farther afield, Rancho San Rafael Park is 14 to 19 minutes and Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe 39 to 48 minutes by our free-flow road model.
ON-SITE
A private, member-owned club with full, junior, corporate and social memberships. Non-member Somersett residents may book four tee times a year — $140 per player April to October, $90 November to March — per the Somersett Owners Association.
ON-SITE
The association's clubhouse, with pools, a fitness center, and tennis and pickleball courts. New owners get an access card, fob or app once the association sets up their account.

The association's nine-hole par-3 course (par 27), separate from the private golf club.
ON-SITE
Paved and natural trails owned and managed by the Somersett Owners Association and open to the public, according to the association.

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
Somersett Parkway is the community's main road, and I-80 runs along its south side. By our free-flow road model on OpenStreetMap data (from the middle of Somersett, without traffic, October 26, 2026) downtown Reno is 12 to 17 minutes and the airport 16 to 21. Mean travel time to work for ZIP 89523 residents is 21.9 minutes, per U.S. Census Bureau ACS 2020–2024 (Census Reporter).
Drive times are typical off-peak estimates for the route named; check live traffic before you rely on one.
Quick Answer
Compare the contract timeline, lender requirements, inspection period, and title work with your agent and escrow company. A resale and a new-construction purchase can have very different completion schedules. Use the dates in your agreement rather than assuming a community-wide closing time.
Quick Answer
Ask a licensed lender to compare the programs available for your purchase price, down payment, credit profile, and occupancy. Include mortgage insurance, property taxes, homeowners insurance, and all HOA assessments in the payment. Loan limits and eligibility change, so use a dated loan estimate rather than a community-wide financing assumption.
Somersett FAQ — 17 Answers
NREG’s latest analysis of NNRMLS data puts the ZIP 89523 median list price at $680,000; the date is shown with the figure at the top of this page. That ZIP includes Mogul and other northwest Reno neighborhoods outside Somersett, so this is regional context, not a Somersett-only median or a closed-sale value. Compare recent sales within the same Somersett section, home type, size and condition before setting an offer.
The Somersett Owners Association describes a 2,391-acre master plan in northwest Reno with two golf courses, two clubhouses and more than 27 miles of hiking and biking trails, which it opens to the public. Canyon Nine is the association's nine-hole par-3 course; the Somersett Golf & Country Club is a private, member-owned club. Check the access rights and costs for the property you are considering.
Dues are set by the Somersett Owners Association and, in some sections, a sub-association. Get the current amounts from the resale package (the association supplies it through HomeWiseDocs) rather than a listing summary. At a sale, the association charges a $340 new-home set-up fee and a capital contribution of 0.1% of the price on a resale ($1,000 on a new-home sale), according to its resale page. Golf-club membership is separate.
Some Somersett sections sit behind gates, and the association issues gate codes to owners who live behind them. Brae Retreat, the section Desert Wind Homes is building, is gated. Confirm gate access and road-maintenance responsibilities for the exact subdivision. Canyon Nine is a golf course, not a gated residential enclave.
WCSD’s zoned-school map places the Somersett addresses we tested, including Sierra Canyon, in Westergard Elementary, Billinghurst Middle and McQueen High (zone records marked current; checked September 26, 2026). Zones can change, so confirm the exact address and school year with WCSD before relying on an assignment; transfers and private-school admission are separate.
I-80 runs along Somersett's south side. By our free-flow road model (from the middle of Somersett, without traffic) downtown Reno is 12 to 17 minutes (8.6 miles) and Reno-Tahoe International Airport 16 to 21 (11.9 miles). Test the drive from the actual home at commute time; traffic, weather and the Mount Rose Highway in winter add time.
The displayed 55-day figure is the median days on market for ZIP 89523 from NREG’s analysis of NNRMLS data, and it can fall back to a saved snapshot when live data is unavailable. It is not a Somersett-only sale timeline. Compare dated, sold-only records in the same section and separate marketing time from the escrow period before relying on a number.
The association describes two golf courses, two clubhouses and more than 27 miles of trails. The trails are open to the public; The Club at Town Center, with pools, fitness and tennis and pickleball courts, serves association members; and the Somersett Golf & Country Club is private. Non-member residents may book four tee times a year at the golf club. Confirm what a property's dues include in its resale package.
Yes, in one section. Desert Wind Homes is selling Brae Retreat, a gated enclave inside Somersett, from $1,019,990 on its website (checked September 26, 2026), with plans of 2,655 to 3,868 square feet. Most other Somersett homes are resales, including every home in Sierra Canyon. Call Nevada Real Estate Group at (775) 277-2120 to compare a new home with resales.
Use the Washoe County Assessor parcel record and the actual tax bill for the home. Nevada caps a primary residence's yearly tax increase at 3% under NRS 361.4723, but the new owner must claim it; otherwise the general cap of up to 8% applies, and a sale does not reset the base. Do not calculate a bill by multiplying the purchase price by an assumed rate.
Compare the route to work, trail and park access, property maintenance and total monthly costs, including master and any sub-association dues. If school attendance matters, confirm the address with WCSD. Tour the exact section and home at different times; access, snow and lot conditions vary within the master plan.
Somersett is a northwest Reno golf and trail master plan. Caughlin Ranch is an established west Reno community 14 to 19 minutes away by our free-flow road model, and Damonte Ranch is in south Reno, 23 to 32 minutes away. Compare current listings, commute routes, exact school assignments and association documents rather than assuming one is best for every buyer.
Somersett includes attached homes, single-family houses, custom homes and building lots, plus Sierra Canyon, the Del Webb 55+ section, where every sale is now a resale. The live listings show the current mix. Review age restrictions, association documents and amenity rights for each property rather than assuming the whole master plan has the same terms.
Dues are set by the Somersett Owners Association and, in some sections, a sub-association. Get the current amounts from the resale package (the association supplies it through HomeWiseDocs) rather than a listing summary. At a sale, the association charges a $340 new-home set-up fee and a capital contribution of 0.1% of the price on a resale ($1,000 on a new-home sale), according to its resale page. Golf-club membership is separate. WCSD’s zoned-school map places the Somersett addresses we tested, including Sierra Canyon, in Westergard Elementary, Billinghurst Middle and McQueen High (zone records marked current; checked September 26, 2026). Zones can change, so confirm the exact address and school year with WCSD before relying on an assignment; transfers and private-school admission are separate.
Ask a licensed lender to compare the programs available for your purchase price, down payment, credit profile, and occupancy. Include mortgage insurance, property taxes, homeowners insurance, and all HOA assessments in the payment. Loan limits and eligibility change, so use a dated loan estimate rather than a community-wide financing assumption.
Somersett and Caughlin Ranch offer different locations, housing styles, and amenities. Compare the same home type and budget in each, review HOA documents, and verify schools by address. Somersett emphasizes golf, trails and clubhouse amenities; the Caughlin Ranch HOA describes an established landscape with 24 miles of trails.
Compare the contract timeline, lender requirements, inspection period, and title work with your agent and escrow company. A resale and a new-construction purchase can have very different completion schedules. Use the dates in your agreement rather than assuming a community-wide closing time.

Many buyers choose it for the trails, clubhouse and golf, but whether it suits you depends on your needs.

Methodology: Listing counts, prices and days on market are NREG's analysis of Northern Nevada Regional 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. Confirm details for a specific home with its listing and the responsible agency.
