Heritage at Cadence is a 55+ community in Henderson, Nevada, inside the Cadence master-planned neighborhood that covers about 2,200 acres with more than 450 acres set aside for open spaces like parks, trails, and gardens, and you've got this nice mix of single-family homes, townhomes, and even some condos, different layouts for people who like one-story living or need more garage space, including some homes with RV garages and extra parking. The homes here, like one built in 2016 with a 2,516 square-foot floor plan, usually come with upgrades such as granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, tile and carpet flooring, and garage space for three or four vehicles, sometimes with an attached RV area that includes hook-ups and extra high ceilings. Some houses offer big kitchens with islands, white cabinets, and even a reverse osmosis system for clean drinking water, and you'll see primary bedroom suites set away from the main part of the house with roomy walk-in closets, walk-in showers, dual sinks, make-up tables, and even private bathrooms.
The community feels walkable because of the open design, with sidewalks and very few barriers, which makes it easy to get around whether you're heading over to one of the parks like Desert Pulse or Dakota Dog Park, hitting the trails, or just sitting out on your own covered patio that might have manual shades to keep the Nevada sun off you for a bit, sometimes with gas or glass-door fireplaces on chilly evenings. You'll find yards landscaped with desert plants, synthetic turf, barbecue spots, and dog runs, with many places set up for pets, and most homes have access to fast Wi-Fi and cable, plus insulated windows and ceiling fans to keep cool in the desert air.
Central Park sits at the heart of Cadence and gives folks a big area-about 50 acres-to enjoy all sorts of things like picnic spots, playgrounds, an amphitheater, walking paths, an outdoor lap pool with six lanes, pickleball and bocce ball courts, splash pads, and fitness stations. The 22,700-square-foot community center nearby offers meeting rooms, hobby and arts studios, a billiards room, movie theater, a ballroom, a café, and a private fitness center, and the place keeps pretty busy with scheduled events, classes, movie nights, and resident-run activities that create a social scene if you want to join in. Amenities reach beyond recreation, with shopping close by like Smith's Marketplace with a Starbucks, a cheese shop, and fuel center, and there are animal hospitals nearby if you have pets.
