What makes it home
Life inside Ardiente
Ardiente has an unusual history: Centex began it in 2005, Shea Homes took it over in 2010 and finished it, with grand-opening events and new models in 2017. The result is a community that feels newer than its 2005 start, with Spanish and Tuscan-inspired architecture, open-concept floor plans, and energy-efficient construction on gated streets.
The 20,000-square-foot clubhouse is the social heart: a fitness center, group exercise studio, billiards and card rooms, a library, a multipurpose room, and a catering kitchen, open from early morning to evening. Outside are two pools plus a spa, tennis, pickleball, bocce, and basketball courts, a putting green, walking and biking trails, six landscaped parks including a rose garden and a dog park, and a 24/7 guard-gated entry.
Programming is staff-driven, with an activity director, resident clubs, and organized events from fitness classes and tennis clinics to dog training and home-sizing seminars. For 55-plus buyers who want a full clubhouse lifestyle at North Las Vegas pricing, Ardiente is one of the newer, amenity-complete options in the area.
