Age rules
Hearthstone Villas is an age-restricted 55+ community. As with most 55+ communities, the exact rules on who can live there — and any limited allowance for younger residents — are set in the community’s governing documents. Rules like these can change, and they aren’t always easy to find. Before you buy, we’ll confirm the current age rules for you so there are no surprises.
Homes at Hearthstone Villas
Hearthstone Villas is made up of 60 townhome-style garden villas, generally ranging from about 1,339 to 1,476 square feet. They’re low-maintenance by design and comfortable to live in. Since they were built in the late 1990s, some have been updated and some are more original, so features and condition vary home to home. With such a small community, homes don’t come up for sale often — so when a good one appears, it pays to be ready.
Good news for pet owners: Hearthstone Villas is pet-friendly — a nice plus in a gated townhome community. We’ll confirm any specifics, like size or number limits, for the home you’re considering.
Buying an established villa? Roofs, cooling, plumbing, and electrical all deserve a close look, even in a home from the late ’90s. That’s what the inspection period is for — and it’s where having us on your side pays off.
Amenities & daily life
For a community this small, Hearthstone Villas keeps things simple and social:
- A clubhouse for gatherings and events.
- A community swimming pool.
- Fitness classes and arts & crafts activities.
- Landscaped gardens and walking paths.
The scale here is intentionally low-key — a friendly, easygoing place — and with Superstition Springs right outside the gate, there’s plenty more to do nearby.
