About Tucson Estates
Tucson Estates is a well-established 55+ manufactured home community situated on the edge of the saguaro-studded Tucson Mountain Park just 20 minutes from downtown Tucson Arizona. This location provides a quiet, active lifestyle with spectacular mountain and desert views, gorgeous sunsets, and a broad diversity of wild-life in our own backyard. Miles of walking and hiking trails originating in Tucson Estates meander through the surrounding desert, foothills, and mountains.
With 1665 lots, the community is large enough to provide first class amenities with a significant number of clubs and activities yet, small enough to join-in, make new friends, and discover activities you might find of interest.
If it’s recreation and social activities you are looking for, Tucson Estates is the place to be. There are so many things to get involved in that you may have a hard time fitting it all in. A modest monthly fee includes unlimited use of an Executive 18 Hole Golf Course, swimming pools, Spa, Tennis, Pickleball, Shuffleboard courts, a library, and much more. Excellent facilities provide nearly 100 clubs with meeting rooms for social activities, arts & crafts, music and recreation, just to name a few. If you like to play cards or games or you have a favorite hobby or craft, chances are that Tucson Estates already has a group for it.
Many residents choose to make Tucson Estates their permanent home. Still others plan their winter escapes from frigid northern destinations as far away as Nova Scotia and Alaska. Regardless, you will love it here. One visit is all it takes for most people to decide to purchase a home of their own to come back year after year. If you are interested in a short or longer-term rental opportunity to try, we have those too. (See “Housing Options” for more information.)
Tucson Estates is a self-managed, private community. Our amenities, buildings, and grounds are expertly maintained and continually upgraded through the guidance of an on-site General Manager assisted by an excellent office staff, maintenance team, and golf crew. We operate under a Homeowners Association called TEPOA (Tucson Estates Property Owners Association) with Bylaws, Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&R’s), and written policies which provide a durable framework to keep our community well managed and fiscally sound.
Strong community input is only one of the many reasons Tucson Estates remains attractive and well run. Member/Owners are actively involved in the governance of our community. Our 11 member volunteer Board of Directors provide strategic and tactical direction for our community. We also have 11 Standing Committees consisting of over a hundred volunteer Member/Owners who identify, review, recommend, and support ways to make Tucson Estates a better place to live. Volunteer opportunities abound; there are plenty of chances to get involved as much or as little as you like.
