Tropical Estates in Paradise Palms - The Tropicana

First up for the four pictured Tropical Estates models is the Tropicana, designed as "the ultimate in picturesque architecture." With a split plan and decorative shadow block wall, this home offers "an unequaled planned interior". The screen detailing and wagon in the carport are pretty fantastic too.

Thanks to UNLV Special Collections the Tropical Estates sales brochure has now been found. Tropical Estates is located roughly between Algonquin Drive, Ottawa Drive, Spencer Street and Pawnee Drive, and was built by Val and Lee Valentine, builders of the The Casino House.

There are approximately 101 Tropical Estates Homes in Paradise Palms which incorporate some of the most unique decorative concrete screen block found in the neighborhood. Other defining features of Tropical Estates include screened front patios/courtyards, sprawling ranch-style architecture, large sunken roman tubs in the master baths and double-door entries to the master bedroom. There were four initial semi-custom models available in Tropical Estates, which will be shared in separate upcoming posts.
