A Great Northern Las Vegas Active Adult Community

Tucked away in a quiet corner of highly desirable active adult communities in North Las Vegas is Ardiente, a Shea Homes master-planned active adult community.  Ardiente is just minutes away from the excitement of The Strip, and just steps from the tranquility of the mountains and desert. There is plenty of local shopping and all of the conveniences one could every dream of needing a short ride from our gates. A mere three miles away is Nellis Air Force Base with its commissary shopping and a brand new, nearly completed VA hospital within 1.5 miles of the community. Venture a little further to Los Angeles’ beaches or the outdoor adventure of southern Utah. With the Las Vegas International Airport only 20 minutes by car, the world is never far away.

Since 2005 active adults, age 55 and older, have chosen Ardiente for its ideal location, guard gated security, private clubhouse, outdoor recreational amenities and superior lifestyle. Today, Shea Homes at Ardiente delivers energy efficient choices, and home building innovation, at very reasonable prices.

With nearly 300 full time residents here you’ll find numerous clubs in full swing! From card clubs to car clubs or travel adventure to nature hiking there is something for nearly everyone seeking active adult living at its finest.

If you are looking for a little culture in Las Vegas there are plenty of Museums, Galleries and attractions to fulfill your needs. Plan a visit to a few of the only in Las Vegas sights to make your active adult retirement community that much more interesting. Art is all around you in Las Vegas and history has been made so many times in this city that often is seen as very one sided. Take a look at all that Las Vegas has to offer.

Take a trip to Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area offering a one-way 13-mile scenic drive, hiking, biking, rock climbing and seasonal camping. A newly remodeled visitor center at the base of the scenic drive offers in-depth information about the area's history, recreation, geology, wildlife and vegetation. You will also find a gift shop and interactive indoor & outdoor exhibitions. Northern Las Vegas has many other activities for active adult living in a Nevada retirement community.
