The New American Home

TNAH 2020, located in the exclusive Ascaya community of custom homes in Henderson, Nev., represents current trends towards sleek, clean and simple lines, minimal décor, abundant light and flat rooflines that match the surrounding foothills. This tranquil sanctuary from Las Vegas' spirited atmosphere exhibits a combination of earth, natural stone, amid the McCullough mountain ranges to help capture a modern aesthetic in the desert.

The one-story, 7,683-square-foot masterpiece with more than 6,400 square feet of living space was built by Sun West Custom Homes. In addition to its incredible kitchen, the home features four bedrooms, five-plus baths, two showroom garages, a luxurious great room, elegant wine room, multiple water features surrounding the courtyard, beautiful fire features and an outdoor heated entertainment area. 

Sun West Custom Homes Senior Interior Designer Suzanne Czar said her inspiration for the home was an oasis in the desert and, upon visiting the 23,000-square-foot Signature Kitchen Suite Experience & Design Center, in Napa, Calif., a state-of-the-art facility which displays the brand's built-in products, she was able to bring her vision to life. By choosing sleek built-in stainless steel appliances juxtaposed against very sophisticated, high gloss finishes, she was able to create a dramatic kitchen that contrasts with the muted earth tones of the exterior surroundings in the high desert. In addition, Czar shared that technology was of utmost importance and the sous-vide modality on the 48-inch dual-fuel pro range became a focal point of the kitchen. Czar loved the overall design, combining the luxury of the Signature Kitchen Suite appliances with the beautiful finishes.
