Huntridge
Las Vegas' first tract neighborhood: 1940s ranch homes, mature trees, and the landmark theater that started it all.
Neighborhood Guide
One of Las Vegas' oldest neighborhoods and its first tract subdivision, with 1940s and 1950s ranch homes, mature trees, and the historic Huntridge Theater at its heart.
Huntridge is one of Las Vegas' oldest residential neighborhoods, developed between 1941 and 1944 as the city's first tract subdivision, with the landmark Huntridge Theater anchoring the corner. The housing stock is mostly single-story ranch homes and mid-century cottages on generous lots, with mature trees, a walkable grid, and a location south of Charleston and east of the Arts District that puts Downtown, the Arts District, and the Maryland Parkway corridor minutes away. Buyers come for the architecture, the history, and the appreciation story, and many come to renovate.

What makes it home
Life inside Huntridge
Huntridge was laid out in the early 1940s on land assembled by businessman Leigh Hunt and developed partly to house families connected to Nellis Air Force Base in the war years. It was one of the first Las Vegas subdivisions planned to federal housing standards, and the Huntridge Theater, built in 1944, became the neighborhood's landmark.
The homes are mostly single-story ranch houses and mid-century cottages from the 1940s and 1950s on generous-for-their-time lots, set on a walkable grid with mature, tree-lined streets and Huntridge Circle Park at the center. It reads like a small town from the era: porches, grass, and streets scaled for neighbors, not traffic.
Today Huntridge sits in the middle of the city's revitalization story. The theater is being restored, new businesses have moved into the surrounding corridor, renovated homes blend original character with modern systems, and the neighborhood has become one of central Las Vegas' most in-demand spots for renovation and restoration buys.

Questions people ask
Straight answers about Huntridge
What makes Huntridge historic?
It was Las Vegas' first tract subdivision, laid out between 1941 and 1944, and the Huntridge Theater, built in 1944, is the neighborhood's landmark. The ranch and mid-century housing stock and the mature, tree-lined streets have kept the character intact for eight decades.
Is there an HOA?
No. Huntridge is an old-style central Las Vegas neighborhood without a homeowners association, exactly what renovators and owners who want to manage their own property love about it. There is no dues line in the monthly math.
Is Huntridge walkable to Downtown and the Arts District?
Very. The neighborhood sits immediately east of the Arts District and just south of Charleston, so galleries, restaurants, Downtown, and Fremont East are walkable or a very short drive.
Is it a good place to renovate?
Buyers are drawn specifically to restore the mid-century architecture, and renovated homes have driven much of the appreciation story. The key is knowing which homes are priced as a project versus a completed renovation, which is exactly what I help clients separate.
