Named for the volcanic rock indigenous to the Arizona desert, Blackstone is a private country club community with a luxurious yet casual lifestyle. This gated enclave features an award-winning golf architect, relaxed amenities, and lush desert landscapes. Built in the heart of Vistancia, a quiet master planned community that stretches across 7,100 acres in the Sonoran desert with over 25% reserved for open space. Blackstone offers Townhome residences and Luxury Homes priced from the mid-$400,000's to over $1 million.
The gem of Blackstone is the 18-hole championship golf course designed by Jim Engh, named “Architect of the Year” by Golf Digest in 2003. Engh has created legendary courses all across the country but brings his talents to Arizona for the first time. Between the 9th and 10th hole is a large Mediterranean-inspired clubhouse known as The Hacienda. Offering both fine and casual dining, private event space, a bar and wine cellar, The Hacienda is the centerpiece of the community. The Old World architecture reflects the Spanish Colonial and Mexican influences of the area.
The community affords desert, mountain and golf course views and features a variety of custom homesites and upscale homes by prominent builders. What sets Blackstone apart is its design for year round living. While most private communities in this area are geared toward summer homes, Blackstone is designed for primary residences and offers year round access to a multitude of amenities and activities. Located in the secluded valley of Peoria, just outside of Phoenix, much of this area remains underdeveloped allowing room for wildlife to roam and residents to explore.
