In the hills above Brea, Orange County’s newest address is shaping up for a big arrival this spring. Two of the nation’s premier homebuilders, Shea Homes and Standard Pacific Homes, are bringing a vision to life in the new master-planned community of Blackstone, where four beautiful new home neighborhoods will be set against a scenic backdrop of expansive views. A VIP interest list is forming now at www.blackstonelife.com.
With its rustic setting near Carbon Canyon Regional Park and Olinda Historical Trails and its proximity to the 57, 91 and 60 freeways, Blackstone will offer the perfect balance of rural charm and urban convenience.
Also nearby are exciting regional shopping, dining and entertainment venues, including Brea Mall and the shops of historic downtown Brea. With so many options, it’s the perfect choice for everyone in the family.
For families with children, a major attraction will be the top-rated schools of the Brea Olinda Unified School District, which is considered one of Orange County’s best.
The district is recognized for its high percentage of National Blue Ribbon Schools of Excellence and California Distinguished Schools. In addition, eight of Brea’s nine schools have achieved API scores above 800, which ranks them as “A” schools.
Blackstone will be filled with potential for families who love to live and play where the action is – at home. Opportunities for leisure-time enjoyment will range from neighborhood parks to a fun-filled recreation center with pool and spa, outdoor fireplace, barbecues and an activity lawn. There’ll even be plenty of grins and giggles at the community’s children’s water activities center located at the recreation center.
Recreational possibilities will extend throughout the city of Brea, which boasts 15 community parks, including a popular sports park and a 12-acre historical park showcasing Brea’s rich heritage.
When Blackstone debuts in March, home buyers will discover four neighborhoods with prices ranging from the mid $500,000s to the high $900,000s, each designed to blend harmoniously with the natural setting of this one-of-a-kind community.
