On the horizon, envision the breathtaking Sierra Nevada mountains. Just in front of you, visualize the emerald greens of a fairway meticulously maintained. The reality -- it's all in your own back yard at Toll Brothers' new home neighborhoods within Reno-area golf communities.
The nation's leading builder of luxury homes now offers residences in three golf course communities in Reno, including Mountain Crest and Sonterra at Somersett and Toll Brothers at ArrowCreek.
"When Toll Brothers expanded its operation to the Reno area last year, we wanted to be a part of the most prestigious golf course communities," says Gary Mayo, vice president of Toll Brothers.
"Somersett and ArrowCreek set the standard for golf lifestyles in the area. By offering Toll Brothers' award-winning homes in these communities, we are able to meet and exceed the expectations our homebuyers have for the ultimate in luxury living."
At Somersett, homeowners have access to a stunning 18-hole championship golf course designed by 1992 U.S. Open Champion Tom Kite. The course spans 7,360 yards and has a par 72. Features of the course include seven lakes, 62 bunkers and 400-foot-wide landing areas, as well as dramatic elevation changes and majestic mountain views.
The private Somersett course also offers complete practice and learning facilities. In addition to the 18-hole course, Somersett also offers the "just for fun" Canyon Nine par-3 golf course.
Upon completion, Mountain Crest will include 100 homes -- with a number of golf course sites available. Four new floor plans, ranging in size from 2,600 to 4,200 square feet, are offered with prices starting from the low $600,000s.
Three model homes will open for viewing at Mountain Crest this fall.
In addition to Mountain Crest, sales are now under way at Toll Brothers' Sonterra at Somersett.
Plans for Sonterra include approximately 114 homesites with a selection of six floor plans ranging in size from 3,400 to 5,200 square feet. Model homes are planned for completion in summer 2005.
Somersett is a spectacular gated community that will include a 21,000-square-foot recreational complex and a community trail system extending more than 25 miles.
"Homebuyers have been very enthusiastic about the lifestyle offered within Mountain Crest and Sonterra at Somersett," Mayo says. "Somersett is the ideal setting for those who want it all -- from world-class golf to comfortable family living."
