Every 48 Hours Maracay Sells New Tucson ‘Center Pointe Vistoso’ Home by BSB Design

“As new home lots became scarce in the master plan, Maracay recognized the value of this community and invested in the details to create a unique opportunity that buyers are responding to.” – Maracay Homes President Andy Warren.

‘Center Pointe Vistoso’ is located on one of the final and best parcels within 122-acre master-planned Rancho Vistoso community in Oro Valley. Comprised of 343 premium homesites within five strategically planned gated neighborhoods, Maracay Homes’ new-home project is the largest to open in Tucson since 2008.

Rancho Vistoso has been one of the most desired master-planned communities in Tucson for nearly 30 years. With interest in new-home opportunities in the region far out-pacing Rancho Vistoso supply, demand has been building for several years.

Surrounded by captivating views of the Catalina and Tortolita mountains, starry night skies and infinite nature exploration opportunities, Maracay Homes’ ‘Center Pointe Vistoso’ seems worlds away from city life – yet recreation, health care and commerce are all close by.

Sales Success Driving Local Market Recovery

“As the national housing market improves, Center Pointe Vistoso is driving the market recovery on a local level.” – Maracay Homes Tucson Vice President James Attwood.

Maracay Homes’ ‘Center Pointe Vistoso’ community has sold an average of one new home every 48 hours (100 homes in 200 days) since opening just under seven months ago.

The Center Pointe Vistoso community accounts for 60 percent of Oro Valley’s residential building permit volume this year and 8.6 percent of new-home starts in Tucson, a city of more than 1 million people.

Unparalleled Product Variety and Amenities.

“Center Pointe Vistoso is the only option in this submarket with this level of product diversity and amenities, which is a big reason one in every 11 homes started in Tucson this year (excluding age-restricted housing) has been at this community.” – James Attwood.


Home sizes range from approximately 1,400 to 4,000 square feet. Each Center Pointe Vistoso plan includes Maracay Homes’ FlexDesign® selections for optimum customization. All homes are Energy Star® certified and include Maracay Homes’ LivingSmart® program for high performance and cost efficiency.

Neighborhoods are connected by a dynamic, multi-purpose trail system that leads to a 6,000-square-foot luxury swim complex and a large, grassy park with shaded playground equipment and picnic stations.
