Toll Brothers has officially introduced one of the most unique home collections in the entire Las Vegas valley — Glenrock at Grand Park Village in Summerlin West. Nestled within the master-planned Summerlin community, Glenrock sits on elevated terrain, giving many homes remarkable vistas of the surrounding desert and mountain backdrop.
What makes Glenrock truly stand out is its blend of “desert-modern” architecture, homebuyer-friendly flexibility, and structural features rarely seen in Las Vegas — including full walk-out lower levels/terraces and optional multi-gen suites.
With eight distinct floorplans ranging from around 2,900 sq ft to more than 4,500 sq ft, and offering 3-5 bedrooms, up to 6½ baths, and 3- to 4-car garages, Glenrock is designed to accommodate a wide variety of lifestyles — from active families and multigenerational households to buyers seeking a luxury lock-and-leave option with resort-style amenities.
The community is gated, with its own private park and direct access to all the robust amenities of Summerlin — trails, golf, shopping, dining, and more — making it appealing both to local Las Vegas move-ups and out-of-state relocating buyers looking for a turnkey luxury lifestyle.
Because walk-out basements are almost unheard of in Southern Nevada, Glenrock’s unique elevation in Grand Park Village is turning heads. Many buyers who assumed Las Vegas couldn’t offer this kind of flexible, lower-level living are now realizing that Glenrock changes the game.
Basements are almost unheard of in Southern Nevada, which is why Glenrock immediately stands out. Toll Brothers is the first major builder on the West Side to introduce true modern walkout basement plans—a feature typically associated with hillside luxury markets in places like Colorado or Utah, not Las Vegas.
What makes these lower levels so impressive is that they don’t feel like basements at all. Because Glenrock sits on elevated terrain in Grand Park Village, the homes are designed with large windows, natural light, and intentional hillside grading that creates bright, open, fully livable spaces rather than dark, closed-off rooms.
For buyers who want:
extra entertaining space
a media room or game room
a private guest or multi-gen suite
a flexible lower-level living area that still feels connected to the main home
Glenrock offers something you simply can’t find elsewhere in Las Vegas. This single feature — the ability to have a light-filled, functional walkout basement — is one of the biggest reasons Glenrock is generating so much excitement among both local and relocating buyers.
As we explored Glenrock in Summerlin West, we took a close look at the three different structural layouts Toll Brothers offers and how each one fits a different lifestyle. Each offers a different lifestyle experience, depending on how you live, entertain, and use your space.
Glenrock’s single-story designs are perfect for homeowners who want a clean, modern layout without stairs—ideal for convenience, accessibility, and everyday comfort.
What these plans typically offer:
Open-concept kitchens designed for entertaining
Expansive great rooms with natural sightlines
High ceilings that enhance volume and light
Smart, efficient layouts with minimal wasted space
These homes are especially popular among downsizers, retirees, and anyone who wants all essential living spaces on one level—while still enjoying Toll Brothers’ signature architectural detailing.
This is one of the most unique features of Glenrock and the reason the community is gaining so much attention. Thanks to the elevated terrain in Grand Park Village, select floor plans offer a true walkout basement—a rarity in Southern Nevada.
Instead of feeling like an underground level, these lower spaces are designed with large windows, natural light, and direct outdoor access, creating the feel of a full second living area.
A walkout basement is perfect for:
A media or theater room
A game room or teen hangout
A private guest suite or multi-gen space
A homework, hobby, or craft area
A second lounge for entertaining or relaxing
You get all the benefits of additional square footage without stacking a traditional two-story layout, keeping your main level peaceful, quiet, and functional.
For buyers who want maximum flexibility—or families with diverse space needs—this configuration delivers the most expansive lifestyle. These homes combine a single-story main level with both a walkout basement and an optional pop-up second story.
This creates a multi-level luxury layout with multiple private zones, ideal for:
Multi-generational households
Long-term guests or adult children living at home
Buyers needing separate home offices, creative studios, or gym spaces
Families wanting dedicated areas for kids, adults, and shared living
This plan type offers unmatched separation of space while still maintaining the modern, open aesthetic Toll Brothers is known for.
If multigenerational living is on your radar — whether that means aging parents, college-age kids, extended family, or long-term guests — Glenrock is one of the strongest options in all of Summerlin West.
Toll Brothers designed many of the Glenrock floor plans with built-in flexibility, offering configurations that allow families to live together comfortably while still enjoying privacy and independence. During our walkthrough, we highlighted several features that make these homes ideal for multi-gen living:
Many plans include (or offer the option to add) fully equipped suites with their own bathroom — perfect for parents, adult children, or guests who want a more private retreat within the home.
Instead of repurposing a spare bedroom, some layouts offer true guest quarters set apart from the main living areas. This allows visitors to feel like they have their own “mini-apartment” within the home.
The walkout basement option is a game changer. With windows, outdoor access, and full-size living areas, this level can function as:
a private living room,
a full guest level,
a teen hangout,
an in-law suite, or
an independent space for long-term family stays.
It naturally creates separation without feeling disconnected.
Several Glenrock models include versatile flex rooms that can easily convert into:
an office for someone working from home
a gym or fitness room
a crafting or hobby studio
an additional sleeping area if needed.
This adaptability is one of the biggest reasons multi-gen families gravitate toward Glenrock.
With thoughtfully separated living zones, optional suites, and the ability to carve out private spaces on multiple levels, Glenrock offers a level of flexibility that’s hard to find anywhere else in Las Vegas — especially with the addition of true walkout basements.
If you’re blending households, planning for future needs, or simply want a home that adapts as your family does, Glenrock delivers some of the most privacy-forward and lifestyle-friendly layouts in Summerlin West.
One of the biggest questions buyers have when building a new home is which upgrades should be done with the builder—and which ones are better saved for after closing. During our tour of the Glenrock models, we talked through the smartest ways to approach the design studio so you get the most value without overspending.
New construction can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re choosing everything from cabinets and flooring to lighting and tile. But not every choice needs to be made at the design studio. Some upgrades truly should be done during construction, while others can be completed more affordably—and often more beautifully—once you’ve moved in.
These are the items that generally need to be finalized before construction begins because they affect the structure, plumbing, or electrical system of the home. If you skip them early, going back later can be extremely expensive—or in some cases, not possible at all.
Structural changes (extra rooms, extended patios, added suites, pop-up second stories)
Plumbing configurations (moving sinks, adding showers, relocating appliances)
Layout modifications (expanding kitchen islands, adjusting room placement)
Electrical placement (extra outlets, ceiling fans, recessed lights, low-voltage wiring)
Anything behind the walls (soundproofing, insulation upgrades, pre-wired speaker systems)
These selections are the foundation of your home’s functionality. Making the right decisions during the design studio phase ensures your home works for your lifestyle from day one—without costly tear-outs or renovations later.
While the design studio is the best place to handle anything structural or behind the walls, many of the most high-impact design choices are actually better (and often more affordable) to complete after closing with a trusted contractor. These are the upgrades that elevate your home’s personality and style — and don’t require the builder’s involvement during construction.
During our tour of the Glenrock models, we talked about several design elements that looked stunning, but could be achieved with higher quality and more customization once the home is finished.
Accent walls, wainscoting, paneling, fluted details, and trim work add architectural depth — and local craftsmen can usually deliver more intricate designs at a better price than the builder’s menu of options.
Bookshelves, media walls, mudroom benches, and storage systems look more “designed” when built after closing. You’re able to choose your exact materials, finishes, and layout rather than relying on limited builder packages.
Builders often charge premium pricing for lighting swaps. After market, you get:
a wider selection
better quality
installation at a lower cost
It also allows you to layer lighting intentionally throughout the home.
Some flooring types — especially high-end hardwoods, patterned carpet, or oversized tile — can be installed more affordably after closing. This also prevents builder markups and gives you access to more boutique design options.
We pointed out several beautiful architectural details in the models, including arches and built-out shelves. These are often easier to achieve with a contractor who can customize the shape, finish, and scale exactly to your vision — and without the builder’s upgrade pricing.
From grasscloth to luxurious jewel-tone patterns (both trending right now), wallpaper installation is almost always better left to a dedicated wallpaper professional. Builders rarely specialize in this, and post-closing installation yields cleaner edges and better longevity.
You’ll typically save money, get higher-quality craftsmanship, and gain access to more materials, finishes, and customization. Builders focus on structure and systems — local artisans elevate the style.
Plus, many of the design-forward touches you saw in the Glenrock models were created by staging designers, not by the builder’s standard options. That’s exactly why we guide clients on where to spend and where to save to get the most beautiful results without unnecessary costs.
One of the things that makes Glenrock so memorable is the level of design intention in the model homes. Toll Brothers leans into a warm, modern aesthetic, and during our walkthrough we pointed out several choices that buyers can easily replicate — either through the design studio or through custom work after closing.
Arches are officially back — and Glenrock showcases them beautifully. They soften the clean lines of modern architecture and add a sense of craftsmanship that immediately elevates a space.
These aren’t just decorative; they create visual flow between rooms and bring a timeless feel to otherwise contemporary layouts. And yes — custom arches can absolutely be done after closing, often with even more precision and personality.
The walkout basement models highlight one of Glenrock’s biggest strengths: lower levels that feel like real living spaces.
With stadium-style seating, jewel-tone wallpaper, warm lighting, and textured finishes, the media room feels cozy and intentional — not like a leftover or bonus room.
This space is a perfect example of how a walkout basement can become a true second living area for movie nights, gaming, or hosting guests.
Throughout the models, Toll Brothers used a mix of natural stone and stone-look quartz — and the result is refined, warm, and very on-trend. Some of the most notable details included:
Higher backsplash treatments
Textured 4x4 tiles with an articulated edge
Floating shelves layered over stone
Metal or glass accent shelving – These combinations create a grounded, organic look that pairs beautifully with desert-modern architecture.
Fluted details showed up in the primary bathroom cabinetry, offering a luxe, furniture-style appeal.
Used sparingly — on vanities, accent cabinets, or built-ins — fluting creates a tactile, high-design moment without overwhelming the space.
It’s a trend designers love because it adds depth and texture while keeping the palette calm and modern.
One of the biggest shifts in the Glenrock models is the move away from cool grays and into richer, earth-based tones.
Warm woods, brown cabinetry, taupe walls, and natural flooring tones create a grounded, desert-inspired feel — perfect for the climate and lifestyle in Summerlin West.
This trend makes the homes feel welcoming, elevated, and less industrial than the grayscale palettes of the past decade.
If you’re considering a new construction home in Summerlin West—including Toll Brothers Glenrock—one of the most important steps happens before you ever walk into the sales office: bring your own real estate agent on your very first visit.
In our upcoming video (Video 3), we’ll dig into the details of pricing, lot premiums, incentives, and builder negotiations, but this key point deserves its own spotlight because it impacts your entire buying experience from start to finish.
This is the biggest misconception in new construction. The friendly sales consultants at the model homes are knowledgeable and helpful, but their job is to represent the builder’s best interests — not yours.
When you bring your own agent, you gain a dedicated advocate who protects your goals, your timeline, and your investment at every step.
From writing the contract to final walkthroughs months later, your agent ensures deadlines are met, promises are kept, and your rights as a buyer are protected.
Builders often offer incentives, but not all incentives are good incentives. A seasoned new-construction agent knows when upgrades are worth negotiating, how to secure closing costs or rate buydowns, and how to ensure you’re not overpaying for options that add little resale value.
Design decisions can quickly become overwhelming — and expensive. Your agent can help you prioritize which upgrades should be done with the builder and which are smarter to complete after closing to save money and improve quality.
Not all structural choices or design upgrades add value. A knowledgeable agent will help you choose options that support long-term equity and make your home more appealing if you ever decide to sell.
From contract clauses to lot orientation, drainage, construction timelines, electrical placement, or HOA considerations — your agent helps you avoid pitfalls that could cost thousands down the road.
If you step in without your own agent, you may unintentionally give up the right to representation — and with it, the support you need for pricing, upgrades, inspections, and construction oversight.
Having a new-construction specialist with you means you’re not just purchasing a home… you’re making a well-protected, well-planned investment.
If you’re considering a new construction home in Glenrock at Grand Park Village, having the right guidance early on makes all the difference. Whether you’re comparing floor plans, preparing for your Toll Brothers Design Studio appointment, or wondering if a walkout basement or multi-gen layout fits your lifestyle, you don’t have to navigate it alone.
New construction comes with hundreds of decisions — structural options, lot selection, elevation choices, design upgrades, builder incentives, and long-term resale strategy. My job is to make that entire process clear, confident, and enjoyable.
With deep experience in Summerlin West, extensive knowledge of Toll Brothers communities, and a design-forward approach to helping clients personalize their homes, I’m here to advocate for you from your very first visit to the day you get your keys.
Let’s build something beautiful together.
