Spyglass Estates is an upscale neighborhood located directly adjacent north of the larger community of The Groves in East Mesa. Roughly a one-kilometer stretch of the Roosevelt Water Conservation District’s canal system defines Spyglass Estates eastern boundary. Val Vista Drive and McDowell Road, as this map also shows, respectively define this neighborhood’s western and northern edges.
The development of Spyglass luxury homes, initiated by Antigua Construction, began in 1985. This subdivision was platted with expansive lots, allocated at a minimum of 35,000 square feet per home site. Spyglass Estates, now completely built out, was developed with just 66 homes. It was carved from a former orange grove, one of Mesa’s citrus orchards whose history dates back to the late 1800s. To preserve this heritage, the yards of all home sites in this neighborhood must retain at least one row of citrus trees. Approval from the homeowners’ association has to be secured before any citrus is removed from the yards.
The premier choices in this neighborhood is located at its gated enclave of Villa Tuscano. Available single family homes for sale at Spyglass Estates would typically have five or six bedrooms within floor areas of between 6,900 and 14,220 square feet.
The Hermosa Vista Flood neighborhood in the north side of Spyglass offers spacious choices as well, ranging from 3,700 to 9,400 square feet designed with four up to seven bedrooms.
