The Top Neighborhoods In Henderson Are Anthem Country Club, Ascaya & MacDonald Highlands.
These three luxury neighborhoods offer high-end homes and great amenities, but as a realtor living in Anthem Country Club and selling in all three of them, I can tell you that their markets work completely different.
Below is my perspective on why Anthem Country Club continues to be one of the best performing luxury home communities in Henderson year after year and why it will continue to perform so well.
1. Long-Term Stability Of Values
For almost 20 years Anthem Country Club has been one of the most stable luxury home markets in Henderson.
While newer communities like Ascaya are still trying to develop their own identity and infrastructure, Anthem has already developed its identity and is a proven investment opportunity for luxury homebuyers.
Due to Anthem's maturity, luxury homebuyers understand exactly what they're getting. The landscaping is beautiful and maintained, the golf course is established and providing a long-term amenity to homeowners, and the resale data shows that the community retains value over time.
This sense of stability also translates into consistent pricing stability throughout the years, regardless of whether the overall market is moving upward, downward, or staying flat.
2. Wider Buyer Appeal
Another reason Anthem Country Club holds its value is due to the wide appeal it has among luxury homebuyers.
Ascaya and MacDonald Highlands seem to appeal to a certain type of luxury homebuyer that is looking for ultra-modern designs, luxury finishes, and minimal HOA restrictions. Anthem appeals to a wider audience including working professionals, families, retirees, and executives that are looking for a luxury home environment that is comfortable and secure.
Due to this, there is consistent demand for homes in Anthem Country Club. When economic conditions shift and luxury homebuyers become less active in the market, Anthem's demand pool remains active due to the diverse lifestyles and price ranges available.
3. Diversification Of Home Prices Within Anthem Country Club Provides Protection Against Market Fluctuations
Home prices in Anthem Country Club range from approximately $700,000 to over $10 million. This diversification provides multiple layers of protection against fluctuations in the overall housing market.
Entry level luxury homebuyers can upgrade to higher end homes within the community, and high-end luxury homebuyers can purchase luxury homes from builders or previously owned homes with custom features.
Ascaya and MacDonald Highlands primarily cater to the ultra-luxury market segment and may experience reduced activity when high-end liquidity tightens. Anthem's diversified pricing range helps protect it from market swings.
4. Consistent Resale Performance And Appreciation
Historically, Anthem Country Club has experienced consistent and predictable appreciation in the value of homes within the community.
Some of the highest performing luxury home resale values have historically been those with golf course, lake or Strip views.
Although luxury home values can drop in correction periods, Anthem Country Club tends to retain value compared to other surrounding luxury home communities due to the low supply of homes and consistent demand from luxury homebuyers.
Luxury homes in Anthem Country Club that are well maintained and located in prime areas typically sell quickly when properly priced.
5. Great Location With Easy Access To Amenities
Both Ascaya and MacDonald Highlands have unique characteristics and benefits such as the ultra-modern design of Ascaya and the dramatic elevation changes of MacDonald Highlands; however, Anthem Country Club excels in terms of location and livability.
Anthem Country Club is within minutes of Henderson's top rated school districts, shopping centers, restaurants and Las Vegas McCarran Airport. Anthem's residents can enjoy panoramic mountain views, luxurious amenities and the feeling of being part of a true neighborhood community without having to sacrifice the convenience of being close to everything.
For luxury homebuyers that desire an upscale lifestyle without being isolated from the world outside their community, Anthem Country Club checks both boxes.
6. Anthem's Community Reputation Extends Beyond Real Estate
Anthem Country Club has a reputation that goes beyond luxury real estate.
Residents of Anthem Country Club enjoy the benefit of 24 hour per day gated security, a championship golf course, a strong social culture and a sense of community that takes years to establish in newer communities.
This intangible asset that Anthem Country Club brings to the table keeps long time residents loyal and attracts new luxury homebuyers from across the country.
When you buy a home in Anthem Country Club, you are not just buying a home, you are buying a proven luxury lifestyle that consistently attracts high quality luxury homeowners.

When luxury homebuyers select Anthem Country Club, it is generally because they are seeking long term stability, easy access to luxury amenities and a community that truly feels lived in.
It is not speculation, it is a strategy.
Conclusion
Anthem Country Club holds its value and continues to outperform expectations year after year due to its ability to deliver something that no other community in Henderson can provide: a proven combination of luxury, comfort, and community.
