Rancho Circle

Situated off Rancho Drive just north of Alta Drive about a mile west of The Smith Center for the Performing Arts, Rancho Circle was the original hot spot for those seeking generous lot sizes. It became a neighborhood of exclusive large custom homes, many of which would often serve as gathering spots for prominent parties for notable people such as President Ronald Reagan.

In the past five decades, the community certainly has seen a plethora of celebrities and economic ups and downs. 

If you weren’t around in the 1950s and 1960s, Rancho Circle was seen as the neighborhood where money grew on trees. Long before Rancho Circle had a security gate added to protect its residents from the steady flow of buses carrying tourists, kids would leave behind subdivisions such as middle-class Twin Lakes to capitalize on the candy of Rancho Circle homes on Halloween.

Although Rancho Circle is no longer the “Main Street” of high-end Vegas real estate, it carries with it a fascinating history that included impressive lighting displays each Christmas. With 34 lots as large as 2.72 acres, it’s a paradise where residents enjoy their space and the surrounding landscape.
