Shadow Crest

Independent Assessment

Multiple sources (55places, Beazer Homes' own site, activeadultliving.com, Hampsten Realty, homesforsaleinmesquitenevada.com) consistently and independently confirm that Shadow Crest is a genuine, gated, age-qualified 55+ community, with Beazer Homes' "Gatherings at Shadow Crest" branding covering the newer-construction portion of the neighborhood. Reported total home counts and square-footage ranges vary somewhat between sources (105 homes across 11 floor plans per one detailed source, versus a narrower 40-home Beazer-specific figure), which likely reflects Shadow Crest being a broader neighborhood name encompassing the Beazer-built phase alongside other builders' homes; the wider figures are presented while the discrepancy is flagged. Address references for the community also vary slightly by source (one citing 1053 Atkins Lane, 89034, and others describing it within the Highland Views/Highland Vistas master-planned area near 89027), which buyers should resolve for a specific home with a local agent.

Who May Find This Community Appealing

Buyers who want a comparatively newer-built, age-qualified single-family home in Mesquite, with larger floor plan options (up to roughly 3,000 square feet) and low-maintenance yard care bundled into the HOA, are a strong fit for Shadow Crest. Its proximity to Mesa View Regional Hospital also appeals to buyers who prioritize quick access to healthcare.

Homes, Builders & Development History

Beazer Homes built and marketed the "Gatherings at Shadow Crest" new-construction phase, reported at 40 single-family homes, which has since sold out; the broader Shadow Crest neighborhood is reported at approximately 105 total homes across 11 different floor plans ranging from about 1,536 to 3,048 square feet, each with a two or three-car garage. General landscape maintenance and Beazer's Choice Plans customization options were included as part of the original new-construction sales program.

Current Pricing & Market Positioning

Reported pricing at Shadow Crest has ranged from the high-$300,000s to the low-$700,000s depending on home size and section, positioning it among the higher-priced options within Mesquite's smaller gated 55+ communities alongside Mesa Hills. Buyers should request recent closed comparables for the specific home, builder, and floor plan.

New Construction vs. Resale Considerations

Beazer Homes' "Gatherings at Shadow Crest" new-construction phase has sold out, so current purchases in that phase are resale without a builder warranty, though homes are comparatively newer than much of Mesquite's other 55+ housing stock. Buyers should confirm the specific build year and original builder of any home, request a full independent inspection, and review the HOA's current financial statements and reserve study.

Taxes, Insurance & Special Assessments

Homes here are subject to Clark County property tax at the county's current rate, along with Nevada's statutory partial property-tax abatement, which caps annual increases on a qualifying primary residence's tax bill. Nevada has no state income tax. Buyers should confirm current assessed value, applicable tax rate, and abatement eligibility directly with the Clark County Assessor.

Community Layout & Lifestyle

Shadow Crest offers a gated, low-maintenance, age-qualified single-family lifestyle with a comparatively newer housing stock than several other Mesquite 55+ neighborhoods, and larger available floor plans up to roughly 3,000 square feet. Without on-site clubhouse amenities, residents' social and recreational life leans on the nearby Mesquite Recreation Center and the broader Mesquite community.

Shopping, Healthcare & Airport Access

Shadow Crest is located in Mesquite, Nevada, next to Mesa View Regional Hospital, with Interstate 15 about a mile away (source addresses vary between 1053 Atkins Lane, 89034, and locations within the Highland Views/Highland Vistas area near 89027; buyers should confirm the specific address for any home under consideration). Downtown Mesquite's casino-resort district and daily services are a short drive, and Las Vegas is roughly an hour and a half to the south.

Age Qualification & Material Ownership Restrictions

Shadow Crest is consistently described across multiple independent sources, including Beazer Homes' own marketing, as an age-qualified, gated community for adults 55 and older. The recorded Clark County deed-restriction or CC&R language establishing the specific legal age-verification mechanism was not independently obtained; buyers should confirm current age-qualification and occupancy rules directly with the HOA before purchasing.

Tradeoffs & Limitations

Shadow Crest has no on-site clubhouse, pool, or fitness facility of its own; residents who want those amenities generally join the separately operated Mesquite Recreation Center a short drive away. Reported total home count and address details vary somewhat across sources, likely reflecting the community's status as a broader neighborhood beyond just the Beazer-built "Gatherings" phase, so buyers should confirm the specific builder, address, and phase of any home under consideration.

Comparison With Nearby Communities

Within Mesquite's smaller gated 55+ communities, Shadow Crest offers a comparatively newer housing stock and larger available floor plans than Highland Fairways, positioning it closer to Mesa Hills on price while lacking Mesa Hills' proximity to Falcon Ridge Golf Course. Buyers who want a dedicated on-site golf course and resort-scale amenities should look toward Sun City Mesquite instead.
