How much does a waterfront home cost in Desert Shores?

Lakefront homes typically start around $550,000 and climb past $650,000 for larger floor plans on Lake Jacqueline. Water view homes (lake adjacent without direct frontage) fall in the $475,000 to $550,000 range. Non waterfront homes inside the community generally sell between $375,000 and $475,000.

The lakefront premium runs roughly $100,000 to $200,000 over equivalent non waterfront homes. That premium reflects private dock access, water views, and the limited supply of lakefront lots; the community has about 100 acres of total water surface across the four lakes.

Why are Desert Shores prices lower than Summerlin?

Desert Shores costs about one third less than Summerlin West, where the median price sits near $840,000. Homes here were primarily built between 1988 and 2008 by RA Homes and other early developers, so the housing stock is more established than newer Summerlin villages. Buyers who want lake amenities, mature landscaping, and a shorter commute to the Strip often prefer Desert Shores at this price point.
