Amenities
Dramatic mountain views throughout the neighborhood. Many new parks with playgrounds, miles of designated open space with paved walking trails connecting clustered homes, access to hiking on Peavine Mountain, and convenient shopping. Easy access to I-80 and convenient to Downtown Reno.
Character
Very much a newer neighborhood. However, many areas have established landscaping. Most homes built in the late 80’s and through the 90’s. Building continues, especially up the base of Peavine. Many homes here have incredible panoramic mountain views. Cul-de-sacs are common and paved paths through the open space make great biking for neighborhood kids. Numerous quail families roam the streets, brush bunnies occasionally show themselves, and there are many interesting birds.
