Royal Troom Popular With First-time Buyers - July 25th, 2007

Dayton Valley is used to being first--it was the site of Nevada’s first gold discovery leading to the birth of the famed Comstock Lode, the first permanent emigrant settlement, first Chinatown, first dance, first marriage--and divorce--, first Nevada quartz mine, first volunteer fire department, oldest Nevada school house and first Lyon County court house.
Now, almost 150 years later, the area is again booming, becoming one of the fastest-growing communities in the United States.
This time, people are being drawn to the area for a variety of reasons, including a wish to return to a quieter lifestyle filled with history, favorable housing prices and outstanding natural beauty.
Lakemont Homes Nevada is doing its part to help those home buyers.
“Our master planned community of Legado is a first in and of itself for Dayton,” said Lakemont Nevada president Greg Peitzmeier.
“It has the first--and only--18-hole Arnold Palmer-designed golf course in this area and it features six new home neighborhoods, a 14,000 square foot clubhouse with a pro shop, bar and grill and gourmet dining, and our Club Legado sports complex is coming soon,” he said.
One of the six neighborhoods within Legado, Royal Troon, is named for another historic site--the Troon Golf Club on the west coast of Scotland.
Legado’s course, The Dayton Valley Golf Club, offers lakes and water features, and will soon be enhanced with an additional nine holes of premier golfing.
The Royal Troon models, named for famous golfers, are now open Monday from 2 to 5 p.m., and Tuesday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
“It’s easy to find our sales center,” said Marketing Manager Marcia Neese.
“For those coming from Carson City, you go east on Highway 50 and then right on Dayton Valley Road. The Royal Troon models are on your left as you approach Palmer Drive.
We also invite people to visit our clubhouse at Legado along with our other new home neighborhoods in this fabulous community.”
Royal Troon features four floor plans, including the 1,250-square-foot Crenshaw; 1,362 square foot Norman; the 1,403 square foot Stewart; and the 1,556-square-foot Nelson. (Square footage is approximate.)
Prices start at $234,900.
“We want people to know that at Legado, they’re not just buying a home, they’re getting a whole lifestyle,” Peitzmeier said.
“These homes are a quality value and in a wonderful location, just 15 minutes from Carson City and about 40 minutes from Lake Tahoe or Reno.”
Part of the value is in the options offered, like easy-care gourmet kitchens with Whirlpool appliances, recessed lighting, oak cabinetry, expansive counter space, as well as convenient islands and pantries. Luxurious master suites feature spacious walk-in closets, oval soaking tub and shower, and tile vanities.
Homes are built with energy-saving features like R-30 attic insulation, high-efficiency gas forced-air heating with pilotless ignition and energy-efficient vinyl dual-paned windows, cost-effective insulated 50-gallon gas water heater and weather-resistant fiberglass entry door.
“We want consumers to choose Royal Troon at Legado because we offer all the amenities they want,” said Peitzmeier.
“It’s always the homeowner who matters most . . . and in today’s market, buyers want a builder who will listen to their needs and wants and respond in a timely and professional fashion.
“At Lakemont, we pride ourselves in doing everything in our power to satisfy our buyers.”
Royal Troon buyers’ custom options include gas fireplaces, upgraded floor coverings, security alarm systems, surround sound and intercoms, central vacuum and decorator selected window coverings.
“It’s all about the homebuyer’s plans and desires and that’s why we give them lots of options at every home-price level,” Peitzmeier said.
