Here’s a guide to touring the community in a day with visits to its many neighborhoods and amenities with built-in pit stops for a cup of coffee, lunch and even a few perfect only-in-Summerlin “selfie” spots.

You will find six collections of homes in a range of transitional architectural styles from 1,579 square feet to 4,815 square feet, priced from the high $300,000s. Perch yourself atop Reverence’s easternmost edge for a selfie with a view of the entire valley.
Next stop? The expansive Paseos village west of the 215 Beltway on elevated topography overlooking the valley.
