Ence Homes Mesquite NV - Trailside new construction - early completion

Ence Homes Mesquite NV

New Ence homes in the Trailside subdivision in Mesquite NV - finished early and the buyers have already moved in, with a lot of help from their new neighbors.  Quite a few people showed up to help unload the truck and the whole thing only took about 1/2 hour.  Is that a record for a quick move in?

Randy, Mary and their son, Matt came from South Dakota looking for an existing home, but we couldn't find just the right house with a swimming pool.  Most folks assume that we have lots of pools here, but that just isn't so.  Then we looked for homes with a pool-sized lot - we do have some of those here.  But we still could not find a house that they really liked.

They did like the Trailside subdivision - near Hughes middle school and several of our pet friendly parks in Mesquite.  So I called John Johnson from Ence Homes and he met us at the model home.  No - that home was not quite what they wanted.  John suggested a floor plan that was used in one of the Ence subdivisions in the St George, Utah area.

After a quick trip to see the existing model, Randy. Mary and Matt were ready to pick their upgrades and design choices.  Ence Homes in Mesquite NV  has a terrific design center in St George with all of the choices laid out.  You can actually see what you are getting when you plan a home.  You end up with a custom home.

A week later, we were at the design center - fun, but a long day!  Then the folks were off to South Dakota, leaving me here to build their home for them.  :)

Ence New Homes Mesquite NV Design Center

Well, actually, I did not do any of the actual building - but checked on the house as it was being built and got updates at least once a week from John, who took pictures of the different stages of construction for the buyers.  The home was finished almost a month early and we had to hustle to get the VA loan approved and all the paperwork in.  But we did it.

And it is a beauty.  Next step is the heated swimming pool.

Mesquite NV Halloween - Trunk or Treat on Monday Oct 31 2011

Mesquite NV Halloween Trunk or Treat - Monday Night Oct 31

Pretty scary!

Halloween in Mesquite NV trunk or treat


Mesquite Police Department will be blocking off Yucca Street next to City Hall on Monday from 5:30 to 7:00 pm for the fourth annual Mesquite Trunk or Treat party. 

Local businesses and residents have volunteered donations, as well as their time to pass out Halloween candy to all the "little monsters" who attend.

With so many gated communities and second homes in Mesquite, not all neighborhoods here are ghost and goblin friendly.  Many of our snowbirds haven't arrived for the winter yet.

Mesquite's Trunk or Treat is a great way for kids to celebrate my favorite holiday in a fun and safe place.


Although I live in a 55 plus active adult community, I still stock up on Halloween candy - just in case I get a bunch of kids trick or treating at my door.  If not, I will be forced to eat the leftovers.  Again.  Can't wait!

Sun City Mesquite 55 + Communities - Split Rail Subdivision Homes for Sale

Sun City Mesquite Nevada is an active adult community for 55 + residents.  Within the Pulte master community are several subdivisions - and each neighborhood has it's own personality, Split Rail is one of the first 2 completed.  The amenities included in the low HOA fee of $120 are one of the reasons that so many people are buying a second home or retirement home in Nevada.

Homes for sale in Split Rail began in June 2007 with the grand opening of Sun City Mesquite 55 + Community - with many homes completed by the end of the year.  With several of the highest elevation premium lots, and only 114 home sites, this neighborhood sold out quickly.  Both Series 2 and Series 3 floorplans in Sun City were offered on these exclusive lots, resulting in a nice mix of several different kinds of homes with attractive elevations, some gated courtyards and some lovely custom swimming pools.

There are now Sun City Mesquite resale MLS Listings for sale in Split Rail.

The location is a plus, too - just south of the Sun City Pioneer Recreation Center, an easy walk - an easier ride in your golf cart!

Views from these premium lots overlooking Sun City Mesquite and the mountains are some of the best in town - this picture was taken at a Sun City Mesquite Split Rail home for sale at 1160 Clouds Rest Point - right after the sun set from the raised deck by the private custom swimming pool.

Pet Friendly Mesquite Nevada

Mesquite is a pet friendly place - People asking about relocation to Mesquite NV might ask if their pets will be welcome, too.  If you are thinking of buying a home, all subdivisions allow pets, subject to restrictions on rental property.  If you are thinking of renting a home, the owner may or may not allow pets.  If pets are allowed in rentals, there will usually be a pet deposit or a slight increase in rent.

There are many pet friendly parks in Mesquite - most of our many public parks allow pets and have pet stations with plastic bags and disposal cans.  There are benches to sit on, but you cannot take your dog off the leash.

All of the Mesquite walking trails allow pets - so take your dog, if you have one, pets must be on a leash, and you must pick up after them.  Many of the walking paths are lighted at night - handy in the summer when it might be too hot for you or your pet to walk in the afternoon.  Bring your own doggie bags.

Walking pets in neighborhoods is fine, too - you can walk them in any subdivision or on any city street, as long as they are on a leash - you do have to pick up after them, anywhere in Mesquite.

Pet Friendly Hotels in Mesquite - we have several hotels and motels that will allow pets - book early on holidays and weekends, most charge an extra fee for pets.

Bocce Ball Courts Sun City Mesquite 55 + Community - Pioneer Recreation Center

Sun City Mesquite 55 + Community has the only bocce ball court around here - one of the many activities offered to residents at their Pioneer Recreation Center.  You can bring your own bocce balls or use one of the sets that the Rec Center provides for residents.  I thought that Bocce was a game, but is considered a sport by those who play it.  :)

Bocce Ball in Mesquite NVAccording to BocceBallRules.net - "Bocce is without a doubt one of the most exciting and enjoyable sports."  I have not played it yet, myself, but I am certainly looking forward to my first game.  I don't think I will need a lesson, just some practice if I want to win - like all sports, right?  I have watched some play and it really does look like fun.

"No matter your level of competition, the rules of bocce are relatively basic, and allow you to start playing and enjoying this wonderful game within minutes."

I do know that you have to keep the ball within the cement borders - This might be difficult for me - I never could color within the lines.

So ... I am not going to tell you how to play bocce - but when I do play it, I will make an exciting video for you all to enjoy.Sun City Mesquite Bocce Ball Courts

Mesquite NV - Fruits and Vegetables Grow in the Desert Backyards - Hard to believe?

Mesquite NV - Fruits and Vegetables Grow in the Desert - One of my Mesquite MLS listings has a huge backyard, over 1/3 acre.  In this small town, that is a very big lot.  I had taken pictures of the lush landscaping and mature trees make this yard so inviting.  Only recently did I actually walk back to the far corner of this custom home for sale - wow!  Produce!

Mesquite NV Backyard in NO HOA NeighborhoodMesquite has it's own water - we are sitting on a huge aquifer, maybe the biggest in Nevada.  The water is harsh to the skin, most homes have water softeners - but boy do the plants here love the minerals!

This backyard has quite a variety of trees and plants, from blooming cactus to a huge Oak tree.

Even a large Evergreen tree that just makes me want to hang some Christmas ornaments on it.  Since the home is in a neighborhood with NO HOA Fees, you can do pretty much whatever you want.  Without asking permission from the Homeowner Association.

But the special of the month in this Mesquite backyard is the grape vines with a whole bunch of bunches of grapes getting ready to mature and now I found a glorious fig tree.

It is huge and full of little figs - figi?

I can't wait for them to bloom.  Actually, I don't like figs, I am just amazed that this tree is laden with them.

It is a desert here - who knew that growing fresh fruit in your backyard garden is an option?
