Southstar at Ridgebrook: RS Development Homes

by Ryan Rose

Southstar is a 115 home subdivision within Ridgebrook, built by RS Development with four floor plans ranging from 1,553 to 2,050 square feet. Nestled in Summerlin's 89135 zip code, Southstar offers some of the most efficiently designed homes in the community, making it a popular choice for first time buyers and young families.

What Floor Plans Are Available in Southstar?

RS Development created four floor plans for the Southstar subdivision, each built between 2001 and 2003. The smallest plan starts at 1,553 square feet, offering a compact yet functional layout that works well for couples or small families. The largest reaches 2,050 square feet, providing additional bedrooms and living space for households that need more room. All homes feature stucco exteriors and contemporary architectural styling consistent with the rest of Ridgebrook.

Southstar's four plans are more focused in size range than the other Ridgebrook subdivisions. While Echo Ridge reaches up to 2,633 square feet and Granite Peaks tops out at 2,550, Southstar's ceiling of 2,050 square feet reflects RS Development's emphasis on practical, well proportioned layouts. The lush green landscaped yards that characterize Ridgebrook are present throughout Southstar as well.

How Does Southstar's Pricing Compare Within Ridgebrook?

Because Southstar homes tend to be on the smaller side of Ridgebrook's overall inventory, they often represent the most accessible price points in the community. Buyers can expect prices in the mid $300,000s for smaller plans, with updated or larger homes reaching into the low to mid $400,000s. All Southstar homeowners pay the Summerlin South master association fee of $76 per month.

Ryan Rose frequently recommends Southstar to buyers who want the Ridgebrook lifestyle at a more approachable price point. The subdivision offers the same community amenities, the same Summerlin location, and the same proximity to the 6.3 acre Ridgebrook Park and Goolsby Elementary School. The difference is simply a smaller footprint, which many buyers actually prefer.

A Local Agent's Take on Southstar

What makes Southstar compelling is that RS Development built homes designed for real daily living rather than showpiece square footage. The floor plans flow naturally, rooms are proportional, and the overall feel is comfortable without wasted space. For buyers who prioritize location and community over sheer size, Southstar delivers exceptional value within Summerlin.
