Cliffside contemporary estate strikes a pose as it sits along the huge rock outcroppings of a gated hidden canyon within the luxury community of MacDonald Highlands. From this heightened elevation, large windows, glass doors and multiple balconies offer tremendous indoor/outdoor experiences with glittering views of the Las Vegas Strip. The main level of this custom home highlights a large entertainment room hosting a wetbar, wine cellar and home theatre. Several access points offer entry to the dramatic backyard with its infinity-swimming pool, spa and fire features and large wraparound balcony.

A two-way fireplace separates the formal dining and living rooms while an office/den sits nearby. The gourmet kitchen features chocolate-colored cabinetry, granite counters, "Wolf" and "Miele" appliances. The owners' suite rests at the top of the home, accessed by an elevator or stairs, and offers a luxurious bath, dual wardrobe closets, a wetbar and more commanding Strip views. Secondary bedrooms offer in-suite baths and walk-in closets.

Ten years in the planning, developer Rich MacDonald's vision of an intimate, private enclave of luxury homes on a commanding mountainside, has become a widely celebrated reality. "You don't get a second chance," notes Rich MacDonald, developer of MacDonald Highlands. He's referring to the process of designing and developing "MacDonald Highlands", the prestigious hillside community in Henderson, Nevada. "It's one time around, so it better be done the right way and it's even more critical when your name is right there on the entry monument!" he says with a broad grin.
