A total of 8 single story floor plans are available ranging from 1,235 to 2,352 sq. ft.  Base prices as of May 3, 2008 range from $220,900 to 303, 900. This represents another large price reduction for this community. As of September 2007 the previous base prices ranged from $250,990 to $356,990. Note that the substantial incentives available lately can reduce the prices actually offered even further. This is a guard gated community with six parks, a recreation center with exercise and craft areas, two swimming pools, spa, bocce and tennis facilities. Additional amenities include putting an chipping greens. Note that Ardiante is now offering some nice incentives on homes in the process of construction or completed.

The elevation at Ardiente is approximately 2,000 ft. above sea level.

Pros and cons for Ardiente include the following, in my opinion:   The commute to the center of the strip/airport area is fairly easy with close access to the I-15.  Ardiente does not have any Land Improvement Assessment fees.  This is a small guard gated community so it should be good security wise with an officer roaming the neighborhood as well.  Ardiente promotional material puts it as "lock-and-leave lifestyle perfect for age-qualified residents".  On the con side, it is not part of a master planned community and as such it will be surrounded by subdivisions without the protections and amenities usually associated with master plans.  Homeowner Association fees may be a little higher than most of the other new options in age restricted, in that it will be guard gated.

The community center at Ardiente is a real jewel. It seems more than adequate for the size of the community and has a real country club feel to it.
