The neighborhood

Altura Overview

Altura occupies a prime corner of The Paseos off Fox Hill and Alta Drive, the newest wave of the village's build-out. Toll Brothers opened models here in January 2017, and the roughly 119 homes sold through sold-out status within a couple of years, so everything in Altura is recent construction with a current building standard: open great rooms, upgraded millwork, and floor plans sized for buyers who want space.

What sets Altura apart is the mix. Most of the village's newer neighborhoods commit to all two-story or all single-story plans; Altura offers both, which makes it a genuine option for downsizers who want one-level living at 3,800-plus square feet AND for families who want a large two-story layout, all behind the same gate. It shares that parklike entry with Sarasota, so the two neighborhoods read as one gated community from the street.

Homes

Homes & Floor Plans

Toll Brothers marketed Altura with a range of plans spanning about 3,842 to 4,237 square feet. The figures below should be confirmed against the specific home, which may carry options that change bedroom counts and finishes.

Size

Plans run approximately 3,842 to 4,237 square feet, the largest new-build range in this corner of the village.

Bedrooms

Typically 4 to 5 bedrooms, with up to 7 bedrooms possible in some plans depending on options.

Baths

About 4.5 to 6.5 baths across the plan range, matching the home's scale with multiple ensuite bedrooms and a guest bath.

Market context, as of late 2025 / early 2026

Altura trades as a premium resale neighborhood with thin inventory, so exact pricing moves with what is listed at any moment. Homes of this size in The Paseos commonly list well above the village median, which stood around $825,000 in Q4 2025 reports; the right Altura home can be substantially higher depending on plan, lot, view corridor and upgrades. Every sale is different, and market conditions change, so ask for current comparables before drawing conclusions.

HOA context: Altura carries the Summerlin master fee, currently described around $69 per month for the Summerlin West portion of the village, plus the village and Altura sub-association dues that cover the shared gate and common areas, commonly in the $75 to $150 range for single-family homes in The Paseos. Exact fees depend on the specific home.

Day to day

Lifestyle & Local Context

Altura residents get the newest housing stock in the village with the widest price spread between plans, which makes the neighborhood feel like a small collection of individual estates rather than a tract. Because Altura and Sarasota share a gate, the streetscape reads as one larger gated community with two distinct characters, and the shared entry means neighborly traffic between the two neighborhoods.

Daily life centers on the west side of Summerlin: morning walks on the village trails, weekend picnics at Paseos Park, and the West Charleston corridor for groceries and errands. Red Rock Canyon is the backdrop and the destination, and Downtown Summerlin handles shopping, dining and the ballpark. For downsizers, the single-story Altura plans offer large one-level living without leaving the newest, most desirable part of The Paseos.

Good questions

Altura FAQ

Who built Altura in The Paseos?

Toll Brothers built Altura, with a model grand opening in January 2017 and construction running through roughly 2018. The community is sold out and now trades entirely on the resale market.

Are Altura homes one-story or two-story?

Both. Altura mixes single-story and two-story floor plans across roughly 119 homes, which is unusual for the newest Paseos product and gives buyers a choice between one-level living and larger two-story layouts.

How large are Altura homes?

The floor plans run roughly 3,842 to 4,237 square feet with 4 to 5 bedrooms, up to 7 bedrooms in some plans, and 4.5 to 6.5 baths. Confirm the specific plan and square footage for the home you are considering.

Does Altura share its gate with another neighborhood?

Yes. Altura and Sarasota form one of The Paseos' paired-gate communities, sharing a parklike gated entry off Fox Hill and Alta Drive. Each neighborhood keeps its own character and sub-association behind the shared gate.

What schools serve Altura?

The schools most commonly referenced for the Paseos and 89138 area are Linda Rankin Givens Elementary, Sig Rogich Middle and Palo Verde High. CCSD assigns by exact address and boundaries change, so always verify current zoning for a specific home.

What is the market like in Altura?

Altura is a premium, low-inventory resale neighborhood, so listings turn over slowly and prices ride the top of the Paseos range. Village-level reports put The Paseos median around $825,000 in Q4 2025, but homes of Altura's size sell well above that, with final numbers depending heavily on plan, lot, view and condition. Ask for current comparables for a specific home.

Who is Altura a good fit for?

Buyers who want a recent Toll Brothers home, generous square footage and the choice of single- or two-story living, with gated security and Red Rock views. It also suits relocating families and empty nesters who want room for guests.

Altura is a neighborhood where pricing gets tricky: plans vary by thousands of square feet, lots carry very different view exposure, and the single-story vs. two-story choice changes the buyer pool entirely. I have followed The Paseos since before its newest gates opened, and I know which Altura floor plans resell strongest, what options buyers pay for, and what the market evidence actually supports for a specific home.
