If you’ve been house-hunting in the East Valley, chances are Cadence has come up in conversation. Developed by The LandWell Company on 2,200 acres in eastern Henderson, Cadence has grown since breaking ground in 2012 into one of the top-selling master-planned communities in the entire country, regularly ranking among the top five nationally in annual industry sales reports. With roughly 12,250 homes planned at full buildout, it’s one of the largest active communities in the Las Vegas valley — and one worth understanding before you start touring.
More Than One Park to Love
The heart of Cadence is its nearly 50-acre Central Park, with mountain views, multiple playgrounds, walking trails, splash pads, and large event lawns. But Central Park is just the start — Cadence spreads city parks throughout its villages, including Desert Pulse Park (home to the Dakota Dog Park, with three separate play areas sized for pets big and small) and individual neighborhood parks like Mountain Bluebird Park, Endless Sky Park, Expedition Park, and Luminoso Park. Nearly every village has a park of its own, so green space is rarely more than a short walk away.
A Massive Sports Park Is on the Way
Cadence’s next big amenity is the 100-acre Cadence Sports Park, currently in development with the City of Henderson. Once complete, it will bring multipurpose athletic fields, baseball and softball diamonds, basketball and pickleball courts, playgrounds, and picnic areas, all connected to the Las Vegas Wash Trail system. For a community already known for its parks, this regional-scale sports complex is set to be a major draw for active families and youth sports leagues alike.
Nine Builders, a Range of Price Points
Cadence isn’t a single-builder community, which means buyers get real variety under one HOA. Woodside Homes, Richmond American Homes, Lennar, Toll Brothers, StoryBook Homes, D.R. Horton, Century Communities, Beazer Homes, and Taylor Morrison all have active neighborhoods here. As of 202
6, pricing spans a wide range: townhomes generally start in the $260,000s, entry-level single-family homes run roughly $350,000 to $500,000, mid-range homes fall between $450,000 and $650,000, and luxury offerings start around $600,000 and climb from there.
Close to Shopping — and to Downtown Henderson
Cadence’s location is one of its strongest selling points. Within the community, the 30-acre Cadence Village Center is anchored by Smith’s Marketplace and includes everyday stops like Starbucks, Café Rio, Jersey Mike’s, and Wells Fargo. Just outside Cadence, residents are minutes from the Galleria at Suns
et and The District at Green Valley Ranch, both packed with retail, dining, and entertainment. And downtown Henderson’s Water Street District — with its locally owned shops and restaurants — is only about a 10-minute drive away, giving residents small-town charm and city convenience in the same trip.
What Buyers Should Know Before Touring
One detail that trips up a lot of buyers: because Cadence is a new-construction community, you need to bring your Prem
ier Homes Real Estate agent with you on your very first visit to any builder’s sales office or model home. Builders register representation at that first visit only — if you tour alone and decide to add an agent later, most builders won’t recognize that representation, and you’ll lose the benefit of having someone in your corner on contracts, upgrade pricing, and incentive fine print. It’s worth a phone call before you ever set foot on the lot.
Between the amenities, the builder variety, and the pace of buildout, Cadence remains one of the most active corners of the Henderson market — and one where the right guidance up front makes a real difference in what you end up paying and owning.
