Mattamy Homes to Build 73 Homes in Tucson’s Blackhawk Community
Mattamy Homes, the largest privately owned homebuilder in North America, has purchased 73 finished lots within the community of Blackhawk (southwest of Interstate-10 and Wilmot Road) in Tucson. The deal closed on Dec. 18 for $7.3 million.
Mattamy’s offerings in Blackhawk will include spacious single-family homes ranging from 1,429 to 2,427 square feet. Available floorplans offer ample storage options, modern open designs and versatile room configurations enabling homebuyers the choice between dens and flex space. In addition to the thoughtfully designed floorplans, Blackhawk offers four pocket parks, all of which include turf grass areas, ramadas, playgrounds and benches. Two pathways are adjacent to the community which will eventually connect to a future planned regional trailway system.
“We’re excited to bring the Mattamy Way to Blackhawk,” said Anjela Salyer, president of Mattamy’s Tucson Division. “This convenient location ensures that shopping, dining and outdoor recreation destinations are never far away, making it an ideal choice for families, professionals and empty nesters alike.”
