The neighborhood

Palmilla Overview

Palmilla is a gated single-family neighborhood within a village of Summerlin in the far-west Las Vegas valley (zip 89138), built by Woodside Homes in 2006-2007 with the first closings around December 2006. That makes it one of the newer enclaves on the west side of the Vistas.

Every home in Palmilla is two-story, with a three-car garage, typically four to five bedrooms and roughly 2,500 to 3,100 square feet. A private park, pool and play areas sit inside the gate, and the village clock-tower parks, schools and trail network are all close by. For buyers who want gated-Vistas living with newer construction, Palmilla delivers both.
