What should you know about buying a home with a guest house in Southern Highlands?

A guest house is a detached second living space on the same lot, with room to stay for weeks or months, and there are 2 Southern Highlands homes for sale right now whose listings mention one, at a median list price of $9,993,000.

  • Guest houses need a bigger lot than a casita, so they are most likely on the custom estates inside the guard gated golf club and on the large homesites in Olympia Ridge.
  • The Southern Highlands Homeowner Design Manual allows a kitchen and sleeping quarters in a guest house, at least 6 feet from the main house, with a second floor of up to half the first floor.
  • Clark County allows one guest unit per lot. On a lot of 10,000 square feet or more it can be as large as the main home.
  • Under the HOA manual a guest house cannot be sold apart from the main home.
  • This list matches guest house or guesthouse in the listing description, so it overlaps with the casita list and can include a large casita.

Community guide

What is it like to own a home with a guest house in Southern Highlands?

A guest house is a small home of its own: usually a bedroom or two, a bath, a living area, and a kitchen, in a separate building on the same lot. Buyers here use them for a parent who wants independence, a grown child saving for a place, a caregiver or live-in help, or friends and family who come for the winter. It is the most private setup Southern Highlands offers short of buying two homes on the same street.

They are rare because they need room. A guest house needs a lot big enough to keep setbacks from the property lines and at least 6 feet from the main house, which is why you find them on the custom estates inside Southern Highlands Golf Club and on new builds in Olympia Ridge, and almost never in the production neighborhoods. Clark County allows one per lot, and on a lot of 10,000 square feet or more it can be as large as the main home. The Southern Highlands design manual allows a kitchen and sleeping quarters, and a second floor of up to half the first floor. A guest house tied to the main house with a breezeway still counts as a separate structure for the setbacks.

There are tradeoffs. The master association's design manual says a guest house cannot be sold separately from the main home. Plan on paying to cool, clean, and maintain a second building, and on an appraisal that may have few true comparable sales. If a smaller space will do, see homes with casitas, or look at large lots if you would rather build one yourself.

Before you buy

What should you check before buying a Southern Highlands home with a guest house?

Confirm the guest house and its kitchen were permitted and approved, read the CC&Rs, and talk to your lender about the appraisal early.

  1. Permits for the building and the kitchen

    Ask for the Clark County building permit and final inspection for the guest house, and for any kitchen, gas line, or second floor added later.

  2. HOA and neighborhood approvals

    Ask for the Southern Highlands Community Association approval and the neighborhood association's approval. Inside the golf club, the neighborhood rules can be stricter than the master manual.

  3. Utilities and systems

    Find out whether the guest house has its own air conditioning, water heater, and electric panel or meter, and how old each one is. A second building doubles some of the upkeep.

  4. Appraisal and financing

    Few homes have a true guest house, so comparable sales are thin. Ask your lender how the appraiser will treat it, and leave room for an appraisal gap on a large estate.

  5. Insurance

    Get a quote for the exact address with the guest house disclosed, and check that the other structures limit covers rebuilding it.

  6. Parking and access

    Clark County's code calls for one extra parking space for a guest unit. Check where a guest parks and how they reach the door without walking through the main house.

  7. SID and LID assessments

    Ask whether the home has a Special or Local Improvement District assessment on the tax bill, what balance is left, and who pays it at closing.

Questions, answered

Questions people ask about Southern Highlands homes with guest houses

What is the difference between a guest house and a casita?

Mostly size. A casita is usually a bedroom and bath, and a guest house usually adds a living area and a kitchen. Clark County's current code treats both as accessory living quarters, and the Southern Highlands design manual groups them together.

Can a guest house have a kitchen?

Yes. The Southern Highlands design manual allows kitchen facilities and sleeping quarters in a guest house, and the kitchen needs a Clark County building permit.

How big can a guest house be?

Clark County allows up to 75 percent of the main home's living area on a lot under 10,000 square feet, and up to the main home's size on a bigger lot. The HOA design manual allows a second floor of up to half the first floor.

Can I build a guest house on a Southern Highlands lot?

If the lot is big enough to meet the setbacks and stay 6 feet from the main house, and the master association, the neighborhood association, and the county approve it. Large lots inside the golf club and in Olympia Ridge are where this works.

Why does this list overlap with the casita list?

Both lists match words in the listing description, and agents use the two terms loosely. Check the photos and floor plan, or ask us about a specific home.

How do I find the schools for a home in Southern Highlands?

Public schools in Southern Highlands are assigned by home address through the Clark County School District, and the lines can change from year to year. Look up any address with the district's zoning search, and read each school's public report on the Nevada Report Card.
