Tesoro Highlands Community
Tesoro Highlands is a new home development located at the top edge of the Tesoro Del Valle community in Valencia of Santa Clarita. The community will include 1,270 acres of land with up to 13 new neighborhoods with approximately 820 homes. Four of the neighborhoods are intended specifically for the 55+ crowd. The neighborhoods will be gated at various locations while providing access to 22 miles of improved trails. The two builders for the project are Lennar and Toll Brothers.
4/16/24 UPDATE: Since our last visit we’ve observed Toll Brothers is making incredible progress on the Bella Terra and Alta Monte collections! Also, Lennar continues to make progress in more subdivisions including the 55+ models in Sierra Bella, Paseo, Estrada and Toscana. Scroll down for more information.

Tesoro Highlands Video
Here’s our latest video update for Tesoro Highlands. Scroll down to watch a video tour of the Campana model homes and another video about the new Avila homes. We also published a video tour of the 55+ Villas on our YouTube Channel. We plan to publish the next video sometime this summer, or as soon as they finish the main recreation area.
Overview of Tesoro Highlands
Some of the new subdivisions or neighborhoods now in progress include Bella Terra, Alta Monte, Campana, Toscana, Estrada, Paseo, Avila, Sierra Bella, Arches and Montilla. The Bella Terra and Alta Monte homes are being built by Toll Brothers and Lennar is building the others.
The overall plan is to create a village like atmosphere, taking advantage of the local natural surroundings, hillsides and open space. The idea of expanding and enhancing the trails is always a popular attraction among prospective buyers. Given the location above Tesoro Del Valle and judging from the initial models, we are seeing a good number of beautiful views from within the neighborhoods. In fact, we recently visited the Bella Terra and Alta Monte neighborhoods and the mountain views to the south are incredible!
We are especially excited for the four new active adult neighborhoods, Sierra Bella, Toscana, Paseo and Estrada neighborhoods called, The 55+ Villas at Tesoro Highlands. When it comes to buying a home, there are currently only a few age restricted options in the SCV area. Sure, there are rental communities, but more home buying options for seniors will be a welcome addition to Santa Clarita Valley.
Neighborhood Amenities
Two recreation centers, namely The Retreat and The Oasis, are presently in the process of being built. The Retreat is designated as the main recreation hub, while The Oasis is intended for the 55+ neighborhoods. Residents can expect to enjoy clubhouses, swimming pools, hot tubs, lounge areas, a fitness center and more. There will also be multiple park areas, extended trail systems, and various other amenities. The objective here has always been to establish inviting gathering spots that facilitate resident interaction and socialization. Drawing from our observations, we anticipate that both recreation areas will resemble the mini resorts commonly seen in contemporary housing developments.
By the way, don’t miss having a look at the new Skyline community. Their primary recreation area is one of our favorites! We also have extensive information about the new neighborhoods in Valencia next to Magic Mountain.
Moving Forward
Moving forward, we’ll continue to share updated photos as the development progresses.
Schools & Local Conveniences
The schools nearby are the same as those for all of Tesoro. Tesoro Del Valle Elementary is situated centrally within Tesoro Del Valle. Rio Norte Junior High School is across Copper Hill Drive and it’s just a short drive to Valencia High School.
The elementary school is part of the Saugus Union School District. Valencia High and Rio Norte are both part of the William S. Hart School District.
Local Conveniences
Of course, Tesoro Village has been around a while. It’s a local favorite and located at the bottom of Tesoro. There are also several other convenience locations such as Havana Savannah, El Pollo Loco, a gas station with a convenience store and more.

Brand New Homes For Sale in Tesoro Highlands
Click the blue button to see ACTIVE listings of homes for sale in Tesoro Highlands. This is a new community and the builders do not usually share ALL their homes in the local MLS. If looking to buy, it’s best to work directly with us so we can provide you with more complete new home construction information.
NOTE: Looking at the builder’s listings, some of the listing photos displayed could be staged models, renderings or photos of the same homes built in other developments. The same is true for pictures of the amenities.
Caution! Before Visiting
It’s important to remember, if looking to buy a brand new home here or any new development, be sure to take us with you on your first visit. Why? Because, if you sign in at the development without us, we won’t be able to represent you on your new home purchase. We know all the right questions to ask to get the answers you need to make accurate and informed decisions. Having your own agent makes good sense and provides a much needed extra layer of protection.
