Astoria Homes^® Presents Southern Hills

Closeout Spectacular

Located in the Southeast gem of Las Vegas, home to some of Southern Nevada's most sought-after master-planned communities of Green Valley Ranch, Anthem and Seven Hills, Southern Hills by ASTORIA HOMES is holding an unprecedented closeout of the award-winning homebuilder's outstanding community. Interested homebuyers must act now, as Southern Hills' popularity ensures homes will not be available for long.

"We are very excited about the closeout of Southern Hills," said Geoff Gorman, senior vice president of sales for ASTORIA HOMES. "This community has been a great success for ASTORIA HOMES and remains a popular choice among homebuyers. What makes this last phase so special is that this will be the last opportunity for homebuyers to purchase these particular models, thus elevating the uniqueness of the home designs and further protecting their investment."

Based on the best of the best of ASTORIA HOMES' most popular floor plans, Southern Hills highlights beautiful yet functional homes with bonus rooms, dens, retreats, lofts, mini-suites, state-of-the-art kitchens, and spacious, pool-sized yards. With four flexible and open floor plans, homes range from 2,722 to 3,688 square feet with four to five bedrooms, and three-car garages. Starting from the low $500s, Southern Hills is the perfect example of affordable luxury, a benefit that caught the eye of happy homeowner Stefanie Van Aken.

Looking for a larger home for her family at the right price, Van Aken, 31, a married mother of two, knew she and her husband, Kelly, wanted to search for a home to raise their children as well as entertain guests.

"We wanted a home that was inviting to our guests, but kid-friendly as well," said Van Aken, who is marketing director for Ollies Tavern. "I am a former employee of ASTORIA HOMES, so I am well aware of the quality and comfort that they offer in all of their homes. Our home has the perfect layout and accommodates all of our wants and needs when entertaining guests. Our large great room downstairs is ideal for adult get-togethers, while the oversized playroom upstairs lets the kids have room to run around and enjoy themselves."

Southern Hills offers more than just a home for families like the Van Akens. It offers a lifestyle, one full of fun, comfort and convenience for the whole family. This fabulous community is surrounded by walking and bike trails, parks, greenbelts, championship golf courses, highly-rated schools, the Henderson Multigenerational Community Center, fine dining, shopping and breathtaking views of the famous Las Vegas Strip skyline and the Black Mountains. The area is also home to the wildly popular Green Valley Ranch Resort, Casino & Spa and the District at Green Valley Ranch.

"We like to have people over for dinner and drinks, I do lunch and playdates with my girlfriends and their children, and my husband and I like to go out to eat at fine restaurants or see a movie," said Van Aken. "The area that we live in makes it so easy to get around and enjoy ourselves."

"Southern Hills is perfectly located in the heart of Henderson," said Traci Sexton, sales manager for ASTORIA HOMES. "Our homeowners have expressed joy and satisfaction about being so close to shopping, restaurants, and the 215 beltway access, which ensures a quick commute to anywhere in the valley."

The Van Akens recently resided in an Anthem community. They toured other homebuilders in the area before choosing ASTORIA HOMES, a choice they are very glad they made.

"Our neighbors in Southern Hills are welcoming and friendly," said Van Aken. "We couldn't be more happy with our ASTORIA home."
