Could This Be North Las Vegas' Best New-Home Value Right Now?

Quick Takeaways

• A brand-new community: KB Home opened the first phase of Sandstone at Tule Springs on September 4, 2026, a nearly 300-acre master plan in North Las Vegas.
• Prices start in the $300,000s: That entry point puts Sandstone squarely in the conversation as a value new-construction option in the valley.
• Over 1,500 homes planned: Clark County property records tied to the December 2024 land purchase point to 1,483 homes on the site.
• Outdoor amenities planned: Parks, trails and access to the Tule Springs Fossil Beds National Monument are all part of the picture.
• Location north of the 215: Just off I-215 in the Villages at Tule Springs area, a part of the valley known for new-home value.

What Is Sandstone at Tule Springs?

Sandstone is a new KB Home master-planned community in North Las Vegas, located in the Villages at Tule Springs area just north of the 215 Las Vegas Beltway. It sits on a nearly 300-acre site, and the master plan calls for more than 1,500 homes. Clark County property records tied to the December 2024 land purchase point to 1,483 homes on the site.

KB Home bought the land, about 212 acres, for $91 million in December 2024, and opened the first phase of the community on September 4, 2026. Early phases carry their own names, including the Landings at Sandstone at Tule Springs and the Gardens at Sandstone at Tule Springs. If you have driven the North 5th Street corridor lately, you have likely seen this growth coming: from I-215, exit North 5th Street heading north and turn right on Sandstone Ranch Parkway.

KB Home is one of the largest and most trusted homebuilders in the United States, publicly traded under the ticker NYSE: KBH. For a broader look at where Sandstone fits, my Villages at Tule Springs guide covers the wider area, and the North Las Vegas community hub lays out the city as a whole.

What Comes With Living at Sandstone?

Beyond the homes themselves, the community is planned around the outdoors. Sandstone calls for parks and trails woven through the neighborhoods, and the area is defined by its proximity to open desert. The Tule Springs Fossil Beds National Monument is nearby, and Floyd Lamb Park is close as well, which gives the community a sense of open space that a lot of new-home neighborhoods simply do not have.

Location matters here too. Being north of the 215 Beltway puts the community on the north end of the valley, with North 5th Street as the main artery. If you work or live on the north side, this is a short-drive part of town. The honest question is how the commute works for you specifically, because value is only value if the location fits your life.

How Much Do Homes at Sandstone Start At?

Pricing at Sandstone starts in the $300,000s. That entry point is the heart of the value argument, and it is a real one. New homes in that range have become increasingly rare across the valley, which is exactly why this community is drawing attention.

The $300,000s is the starting point, not the ceiling. Larger floor plans, upgraded finishes and the phase you buy in will all move the price. But the starting number tells you the builder is aiming squarely at the entry and move-up part of the market, and that is where North Las Vegas has built its reputation.

How Does the Value Compare Across the Valley?

North Las Vegas is widely noted as the Las Vegas Valley's value new-construction leader, with new homes commonly starting in the $300,000s, well below many Las Vegas and Henderson new-build price points. The table below lays out the general picture. I keep the comparison intentionally broad, because specific prices move by neighborhood and by phase, and I would rather give you the honest shape of the market than a number that is out of date by the time you read it.

New-home starting prices

Commonly in the $300,000s

Generally higher new-build price points

Generally higher new-build price points

Market reputation

Widely noted as the valley's value new-construction leader

A broad, mature resale and new-build market

Established master plans, strong schools, higher price points

Community character

Newer master plans and room to grow

The full range, from resale to high-rise and luxury

More built-out master-planned communities

What to weigh

A newer, still-developing area

Neighborhood-by-neighborhood variance

Premium often attached to established amenities

The takeaway is not that one city is better than another. It is that the same dollar buys more new construction in North Las Vegas than it does in many parts of Las Vegas and Henderson right now. Whether that tradeoff makes sense for you depends on your commute, your lifestyle and how you feel about living in a newer, still-developing part of town.

What Should Buyers Watch Out For?

Every new community has a honeymoon glow. The useful thing is to look past it and ask the questions that protect your decision.

• The community is still being built out: Sandstone just opened its first phase, which means the surrounding streets, parks and neighborhoods will keep developing for years. That is normal for a large master plan, but it is worth going in with your eyes open about what is finished today versus what is coming.
• Verify HOA and community details for yourself: I do not publish HOA fees or assessment details here because they change and they belong on the actual community paperwork. When you get serious about a specific home, the builder's disclosures and the HOA documents are the source to read.
• Have your own representation when you buy new construction: A builder's sales staff represents the builder. Bringing your own agent costs you nothing out of pocket in most new-construction deals, and it means someone is looking after your interests in the contract, the upgrades and the closing. My new-construction page walks through why this matters.

If you are weighing new construction anywhere in the valley, my guide to buying new construction runs through the questions builders do not always raise, and why having your own agent matters from the very first visit.

Is a New Home in North Las Vegas the Right Move?

Here is the honest answer: for the right buyer, a new home at Sandstone at Tule Springs is a genuinely strong value. You get a brand-new home from a major, publicly traded builder, a starting price in the $300,000s, planned parks and trails, and access to the open desert around the Tule Springs Fossil Beds. That combination is hard to beat on price across the valley.

But value is not only the sticker price. It is also whether the home fits your life. North Las Vegas is a newer, growing part of town, and the community itself is still building out. If you work on the north side, want room to grow and are comfortable being early in a master plan, this could be an excellent fit. If you need the most established schools, amenities and infrastructure in the valley today, you may value paying more for a built-out community elsewhere. Neither answer is wrong. They are just different.

The smartest next step is not to make this call from an article. It is to put your actual numbers on the table and compare. If you want to know what your current home is worth and how a move would work financially, start with a home value review, then we can talk about whether new construction fits.
