What $4 Million Buys in a Single-Story Ridges Home: November 2026

By Michael Gorton | November 9, 2026

If your budget for The Ridges in Summerlin is around $4 million and you want everything on one level, the options are specific this week. As checked November 9, 2026, a renovated Silver Ridge home is listed at $3,999,000, two more single-story homes are listed between $4.5 million and $4.9 million, and two early-November closings show how far apart individual Ridges homes can price.

Here is what those public listings and sales show, what they do not show, and how I would use them whether you are buying or thinking about selling a single-story home in The Ridges.

The Ridges at about $4 million: the November 9 snapshot

A public GLVAR IDX search of active listings across The Ridges, checked November 9, 2026, showed a median list price of $3,999,000 and an average asking price of about $1,051 per square foot. That search mixes condominiums, semi-custom homes and large custom estates, so it is a broad context figure, not a value for any single home.

A separate IDX search limited to single-story Ridges homes showed asking prices from $2,695,000 to $9,500,000 on the same day, with a median list price of $4,495,000. In other words, a $4 million single-story budget sits near the middle of what is currently offered, not at the top.

11456 Opal Springs Way: $3,999,000 in Silver Ridge

The public listing for 11456 Opal Springs Way, MLS 2809818, shows an active asking price of $3,999,000 as of November 9, 2026. It lists three bedrooms, four bathrooms, 3,798 square feet, a 2019 year built and single-story construction on a lot of about 0.26 acre in the Silver Ridge enclave.

The listing describes the home as extensively renovated. Advertised features include a kitchen with Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances and dual oversized islands, a great room with a wet bar, and a primary suite set behind its own foyer with direct garden access. Outside, the listing describes a pool, elevated spa, covered outdoor kitchen, covered lounge and a bocce court that converts to a putting green. Recent upgrades listed include an integrated security system, an EV charger and whole-home water filtration.

Dividing the asking price by the listed square footage gives about $1,053 per square foot. Association dues shown in the IDX record total about $814 per month across two line items. Confirm current dues and any club costs with the governing documents rather than a listing feed.

Two single-story alternatives just above $4 million

36 Tapadero Lane: $4,495,000 on a half-acre corner

36 Tapadero Lane, MLS 2818667, is listed as active at $4,495,000. The listing calls it a rare single-story residence on a 0.52-acre, golf-course-adjacent corner lot with Strip views, four bedrooms, a detached casita and a three-car garage. It was built in 2004 and, per the description, fully remodeled in 2019. Outdoor features include a 1,500-square-foot pool and spa, two built-in barbecues, a fire pit and a chipping and putting green.

Public sources disagree on its size: one IDX record shows 3,921 square feet of living area while another shows 3,421. At 3,921 square feet the ask works out to about $1,146 per square foot. Resolve the measurement, and whether the casita is included, before comparing it to anything else.

48 Panorama Crest Avenue: $4,900,000 in Topaz Ridge

48 Panorama Crest Avenue, MLS 2804851, is listed as active at $4,900,000. The IDX record shows five bedrooms, 4,179 square feet, a 2003 year built, one story and a lot of about 0.38 acre. That is about $1,173 per square foot of asking price.

Side by side

The pattern is not simply bigger equals pricier per foot. Opal Springs is the newest and least expensive per foot of the three. Tapadero trades an older house for the largest lot, a casita and golf-course frontage. Panorama Crest offers the most bedrooms. Which one is the better value depends on how you will live in it.

What the November 3 closings add

35 Morning Glow Lane: single-story, $6,100,000

MLS-sourced records show 35 Morning Glow Lane, MLS 2826741, sold November 3, 2026 for $6,100,000. It is a 2015 single-story contemporary with four bedrooms and 4,725 square feet on about 0.37 acre, which works out to about $1,291 per square foot. Its public history records the October 14, 2026 listing and a pending status on that same date, and an earlier sale in April 2024 at $4,475,000.

That is a strong result, but it is one home. The listing describes floor-to-ceiling sliding doors, a sunken fire pit lounge and a dry sauna. Condition, design and setting all sit inside that number.

29 Soaring Bird Court: two-story, $3,950,000

29 Soaring Bird Court, MLS 2739045, also sold November 3, 2026, for $3,950,000. It is a 2006 two-story home with seven bedrooms, including dual primary suites and a casita, and 6,630 square feet on about 0.43 acre. That is about $596 per square foot.

Its public price history shows a December 2025 listing at $5,200,000, then reductions to $4,800,000 in January, $4,250,000 in June and $4,100,000 in September. The sale closed $1,250,000, or about 24%, below the original ask and $150,000 below the final ask. The records show the path, not the reasons, so I would not read seller motivation into it.

I covered the early-November closings across Henderson and Summerlin in more detail in my early November luxury closings recap.

What this means if you are buying

Price the house, not the zip code. Two homes in The Ridges closed the same day at roughly $596 and $1,291 per square foot. A community average cannot tell you which side of that range a specific house belongs on.

Verify size before you compare. When sources disagree on square footage, as they do on Tapadero, per-foot math is only as good as the measurement behind it.

Weigh lot, age and layout separately. A 2019 renovation, a half-acre golf lot and a fifth bedroom are different kinds of value. Decide which matter to you before touring.

Read the documents. Request association documents, any club membership terms, insurance quotes and permit history for remodels. For a wider view of the community, see my Summerlin guide to The Ridges and The Summit Club or how The Ridges compares with The Summit Club and Reverence.

What this means if you own a single-story home in The Ridges

Buyers shopping at $4 million can see every active single-story listing in minutes, along with the price history of recent sales. If your home is priced to the best recent result rather than to its own condition, lot and layout, the Soaring Bird history, about eleven months from first ask to closing, shows how long a price path can run.

The better approach is a written pricing analysis built from MLS comparable sales and current competition, with your home's specific advantages spelled out. Start with a private Ridges home value request, or read how I approach luxury listings in The Ridges.

What is the asking price per square foot for single-story homes in The Ridges?

Using listed square footage, the three examples in this post range from about $1,053 per square foot at Opal Springs Way to about $1,173 at Panorama Crest Avenue. These are asking-price calculations, not sale prices or appraisals.

Did any homes in The Ridges close in early November 2026?

Yes. Public MLS-sourced records show 35 Morning Glow Lane, a single-story home, sold November 3, 2026 for $6,100,000, and 29 Soaring Bird Court, a two-story home, sold the same day for $3,950,000.

Why did 29 Soaring Bird Court sell well below its original asking price?

Its public price history shows a December 2025 listing at $5,200,000, followed by reductions to $4,800,000, $4,250,000 and $4,100,000 before the $3,950,000 sale. The records show the price path, not the reasons behind it.

Is single-story living a meaningful factor in The Ridges?

Sellers market it that way: the Opal Springs Way and Tapadero Lane listings both lead with single-story living. The two November 3 closings, one single-story at about $1,291 per square foot and one two-story at about $596, show how differently individual homes can price, but two sales do not prove a community-wide premium.
