About Vista Del Monte

Vista Del Monte is the third of a square mile of midtown Tucson between Columbus Boulevard and Swan Road, from Grant Road north to Fort Lowell Road, with McCormick Park inside its west edge. Its smaller houses close for almost what its larger ones do. Over the three years to October 2026 there were 47 Residential closings inside this boundary, and every one was a detached house: the condominium and townhouse cuts both came back empty. They closed between $180,000 and $599,000, around a median of $325,000 and an average of $328,267. The nine houses with two bedrooms or fewer had a median of 986 square feet and a median close of $305,000; the 38 with three bedrooms or more had a median of 1,377 square feet and a median close of $327,500. So in this record roughly 390 more square feet came with about $22,500 more at the median, and the smaller group closed at a median $291.78 per square foot against $233.25 for the larger. The smaller houses also sold faster — a median 12 days on market against 28.5 — and one of the nine took a price reduction, against 19 of the 38. The two groups are the same age: a median year built of 1957 for the smaller and 1959 for the larger, so the gap is size, not era. Those are medians over two separate groups, not paired sales, and they rest on nine closings on one side. So a valuation here starts from bedroom count and square footage together, and works from comparable sales of the same size. The rest of the record: living area 708 to 2,592 square feet to a median of 1,366, year built 1942 to 2025 to a median of 1958, a median $238.76 per square foot, list prices $199,000 to $599,000 to a $325,000 median, a median 21 days on market against 25 cumulative, 35 days from listing to contract and 48 to close, and a 0.98 sale-to-list ratio. Ten of the 47 closed above their asking price and 20 took at least one price reduction. Every price, size, year and day figure rests on all 47 records. Twenty-one of the 47 closed between $300,000 and $350,000. The range printed at the top of this page holds 44 of the 47 closings; one closed below $200,000 and two at $450,000 or more. Four more closings over the same three years were recorded as residential income property — buildings sold for their rental units — and are counted separately, not in any figure above. These are closed sales, not homes currently for sale. The land record says the same thing about the stock. Pima County counts 498 parcels wholly inside the line. 431 carry a single-family residential use code and 40 a multiple-residential code — duplexes and triplexes among them — and none the condominium and townhouse code. The City of Tucson's R-1 residence zone covers 326 of the 498 parcels and 54 of 88 interior sample points, R-2 another 155 parcels, and the commercial and office parcels sit along Grant Road, Swan Road and the east end of Fort Lowell Road. The median lot under a detached house is about a fifth of an acre. The ground was platted in pieces. The Venice Addition, 191 lots recorded in June 1926, and the Vista Del Monte subdivision, 134 lots recorded on 4 January 1930, both lie wholly inside the line. Smaller additions followed through the post-war years — the Laurel Addition in 1945, Warsaw Addition No. 2 in 1953, the Kapsal Addition in 1958, Michelle Meadows in 1969 and Fort Lowell Meadows in 1970 among them — and the newest plat is a two-lot split recorded in October 2023. Three edges are streets and check against Pima County's own centrelines: Columbus Boulevard on the west, Grant Road on the south and Swan Road on the east. The north edge is Fort Lowell Road from Swan Road west to where that road ends; west of there the line follows lot lines a short way south of Presidio Road. A block between Goyette Avenue and Swan Road, from about Water Street north to Bermuda Street, is cut out of the shape and is not part of it. Inside the line is about 188 acres. All 555 official address points inside it are in ZIP code 85712. The whole boundary is inside the City of Tucson: annexation ordinance 1895, effective 26 April 1959, covers all 88 interior sample points with no deannexation, and every parcel carries the county's TUCSON jurisdiction code. It is split between two council wards — Ward 6 at 64 of the 88 sample points and Ward 3 at the other 24. The City-registered Vista Del Monte neighborhood association, registered in July 1990, is returned at all 88 sample points. Homeowners associations are a separate question. Pima County publishes no register of them, so whether a recorded declaration runs with a particular lot is answered by the title work and by nothing on this page. Read the title commitment and any resale disclosure before writing an offer. FEMA's flood map returns Zone X at 66 of the 88 interior sample points and shaded Zone X, which FEMA defines as a moderate flood hazard area, at the other 22; a Zone AE polygon, one of FEMA's special flood hazard area designations, touches the boundary but reaches no sample point. A sample point is not a flood determination for any particular house. Pima County's Davis-Monthan Air Force Base vicinity layer covers all 88 sample points, while the base's noise control districts, its Air Installation Compatible Use Zones and the county's avigation easement and disclosure areas reach none of them. Arizona Revised Statutes section 28-8484 requires a seller of residential real estate to give the buyer a written disclosure before title transfers when the property is in territory in the vicinity of a military airport as delineated on the State Land Department's map, so that map, not the county layer, is what decides it for a particular house. McCormick Park, a 14.2-acre City of Tucson park at 2950 North Columbus Boulevard, lies wholly inside the boundary. The City lists a playground, a ramada, grills and picnic tables, a basketball court, a multi-purpose field, fitness stations, a restroom, a community garden and an eight-foot-wide multiuse path. The Rillito River Park is a little under a mile north, measured from the middle of the boundary to its nearest edge. Schools are Tucson Unified throughout. Doolen Middle School at 2400 North Country Club Road and Catalina High School at 3645 East Pima Street are assigned at all 88 sample points. The elementary assignment is split: W. V. Whitmore Elementary School at 5330 East Glenn Street at 83 points and John B. Wright Elementary School at 4311 East Linden Street at the other five. LiveBy's assignment query returns the same four schools and marks all four assigned. No grade range is stated here, because the county and LiveBy record two of the four schools' grades differently, and assignments are drawn by address and change, so confirm a specific address with the district. Measured from the middle of the boundary, Tucson Medical Center on Grant Road is about 1.1 miles away, Tucson Fire Department Station 7 on Pima Street about 1.1 and the Martha Cooper library about 1.2. Oak Flower, which has its own page here, lies west across Columbus Boulevard.
