Tri Pointe Homes Unveils La Cova: An Exclusive Waterfront Neighborhood At Southshore Lake Las Vegas
With priority group now forming, La Cova will offer 42 luxury resort-style residences in a new private guard-gated neighborhood, expected to attract buyers from across the country
HENDERSON, Nev. – The ultimate expression of waterfront prestige has arrived with the grand opening of La Cova — a new double-gated luxury neighborhood by Tri Pointe Homes®, (NYSE: TPH), one of the largest homebuilders in the U.S., set within the illustrious SouthShore Lake Las Vegas community. La Cova’s 42 spacious residences are perched along three peninsulas bordering the 320-acre lake, offering a rare opportunity to experience lakeside living with resort-style floorplans, distinct Mediterranean and Tuscan architecture, and a high degree of privacy. Two model homes now open by appointment daily offer an immersive glimpse into La Cova’s elevated lifestyle, where serene design and artful attention to detail combine to create the ultimate retreat.
“La Cova introduces a new pinnacle for resort-style living in Las Vegas, where the luxury housing market is anticipated to have back-to-back record-breaking years,” said Klif Andrews, Division President of Tri Pointe Homes Las Vegas. “We’ve drawn on decades of experience in designing premium homes and collaborated with leading architects, land planners, and landscape architects to create a professionally designed neighborhood for the highly desirable SouthShore neighborhood at Lake Las Vegas. As a globally recognized destination, Las Vegas’ vibrant culture and Nevada’s tax-friendly policies draw buyers from all over the country, and La Cova is an alluring opportunity for luxury buyers who want every day to feel like a getaway.”
La Cova will feature 42 one- and two-story homes across six distinct floorplans ranging from approximately 2,800 to 4,200 square feet. Created in collaboration with renowned architectural firm, Woodley Architectural Group and landscape architect ABLA Studios, each homesite has been thoughtfully positioned to maximize views, privacy, and connection to the outdoors, while the homes feature modern Mediterranean and Tuscan influences with versatile layouts to harmonize with the lakeside setting. Nearly every La Cova residence will offer water views, and select residences will also include options like casitas, secondary suites for guests or multi-generational living, flex spaces for home offices or gyms, outdoor decks, and secluded backyard spaces tucked into the neighborhood.
“Each detail at La Cova has been carefully considered to capture the essence of a remarkable lakeside retreat,” said Michael Woodley, Principal Architect at Woodley Architectural Group. “From creating brand new floorplans designed specifically for this neighborhood, to the interplay of natural light and sophisticated finishes, these homes integrate luxury and leisure to enrich the art of living at every turn.”
The two completed model homes highlight La Cova’s exceptional design and craftsmanship, offering buyers an immersive look at the neighborhood’s elevated living experience. Highlights include a built-in bar with artistic lighting, primary bedroom suites with natural quartz accent walls, and a dual primary suite with an adjacent deck. Features like a spa shower spanning the full width of the primary bath exemplify the neighborhood’s focus on refined comfort, while features such as 15-foot stacking glass doors seamlessly blend indoor spaces with lakefronts. Both models feature spacious outdoor areas perfect for entertaining, relaxing by the pool, or enjoying the lakeside views.
The single-story Residence 2 model home embraces a fresh, neutral color palette inspired by modern Tuscan design, evoking a comfortable yet sophisticated aesthetic. Earthy, textural elements such as light-washed woods, touches of leather, and contrasting black accents create a casual elegance. The great room is crowned by a striking 14-foot ceiling, featuring stylish panels with hidden LED lighting that form a dramatic “grid” above the seating area, complemented by a towering stone fireplace. This layered design adds visual depth while fostering a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere.
The two-story Residence 5 model home offers a refined feel to align with its modern Mediterranean architecture. A warm, nature-inspired palette of soft celadon, coppers, golds, bronzes, and greys echoes the hues of the nearby lake and surrounding topography. Jewel tones, warm walnut wood, and gold-toned metals with high-gloss cabinets elevate the home’s luxurious ambiance. The home is anchored by a floating staircase enhanced with a dramatic two-story 3D walnut wall treatment, offering a grandeur upon entry that sets the tone for the rest of the model’s design.
“Complementing the serenity of the lake, the interiors of La Cova are a study in effortless sophistication,” said Yolanda Landrum, interior designer for La Cova and Founder of Yolanda Landrum Interior Design, Inc. “Each home tells its own story through rich materials, luxurious furnishings, and unique accents, resulting in a space that feels personal, sophisticated and welcoming.”
