Stonegate Reno Supports Recreation July 19, 2019
StoneGate Reno is taking many crucial details into account while planning the master planned community for Northern Nevada, like water and traffic. StoneGate Reno is also dedicated to preserving the natural beauty of the historic Heinz Ranch by investing in recreational activities for the new residents. At the end of the 10 years, StoneGate Reno will include 3,815 single-family homes and 320 multi-family homes–all of which will want some outdoorsy things to do.
Of the ±1,378 acres of private land StoneGate Reno will encompass, about 25 to 30 percent of its total acreage will be maintained as common area/open space for its residents.
The project provides over eight miles of an extensive trail network that connect to the adjacent U.S. Forest Service property. StoneGate Reno’s 12-acre community center will combine a multi-purpose recreational building, neighborhood retail and accessible amenities such as a pool, fire pit and amphitheater.
What surrounds the StoneGate master planned community?
The property is surrounded by mostly vacant land to the north, south, east and west. U.S. 395 and the Cold Springs residential community border the land to the north. Forest Service lands abut the property on a portion of the east and south sides, which will be included in terms of trail networks. A small community of Unincorporated Washoe County single-family parcels is located along the northwestern corner.
