⛰️ IN ASCAYA, BIGGER LAND DOESN’T ALWAYS MEAN MORE BUILDABLE SPACE.
When Raiders owner Mark Davis purchased nearly 19 acres across four Ascaya homesites for $38.75 million, only about 7.6 acres were identified as buildable.
It’s a powerful reminder for anyone considering a custom home in this hillside community: the acreage on a listing tells only part of the story.
Before buying a lot, it’s important to understand:
🔹 The approved building envelope
🔹 Slope, grading, and retaining wall requirements
🔹 Construction costs tied to site conditions
🔹 Architectural review and building timelines
The right lot isn’t necessarily the biggest one. It’s the one that fits your vision, plans, and budget.
