Living in Tuscan Hills

Tuscan Hills sits off Province Way in St. George's Tonaquint area. You reach it from Dixie Drive, not the busier Bluff Street or St. George Boulevard. The neighborhood was not built all at once. Its plat was recorded in four separate phases: Phases 1 and 2 in December 2005, Phase 3 in January 2015, and Phase 4 in April 2019. As you walk from one street to the next, you can see how the earlier and later sections differ in age and lot layout.

What sets it apart from a typical St. George subdivision is lot size. County plat records show roughly 90 residential lots across the four phases, plus dedicated common-area and open-space parcels. Lots in Phases 2 to 4 run from about a quarter acre up past half an acre, and Phase 1 lots are about 0.04 acre. That is noticeably larger than the lots in the big-builder neighborhoods on much of the west side.

Tonaquint Park is close, under a mile away in a straight line. It has a playground, sports fields, a nature center, and a way onto the river trail. Dixie Drive runs straight north to Sunset Boulevard, and Walmart on Pioneer Road is a short drive south. That keeps your daily errands off the busiest parts of town.

Tuscan Hills is a single-family subdivision. Washington County recorded the plat in four phases: Phases 1 and 2 in December 2005, Phase 3 in January 2015, and Phase 4 in April 2019. Together they cover roughly 90 residential lots plus dedicated common-area and open-space parcels. The homes are detached construction (each home stands on its own) on individually owned lots, not attached townhomes.

Lot sizes run larger than most of St. George. One address I reviewed on the MLS sat on a 0.66-acre lot. The home has 2,529 square feet, a four-car garage, and a private pool, and it was built in 2014. Other addresses on Province Way built in 2015 show lots between about 0.23 and 0.28 acres with four to six bedrooms. That range tells you this subdivision mixes sizes instead of repeating one floor plan. It also means the earlier and later phases will not always compare directly.

I do not have enough independently verified recent sales to publish a reliable price range for this page, and I would rather leave that blank than guess. Still, I can tell you this much. The lot sizes and finishes on the sales I have reviewed put this neighborhood toward the higher end of St. George's single-family market, not the lowest-priced end.

Tuscan Hills falls in the Arrowhead Elementary boundary within the Washington County School District. Arrowhead students do not all go on to the same middle and high schools. The district's boundary maps put all of Tuscan Hills on the Dixie path. One home sale in this subdivision that I reviewed on the MLS listed Dixie Middle School and Dixie High School as the assigned middle and high schools. Before middle school, 6th and 7th graders on the Dixie path go to Dixie Intermediate (once called Tonaquint Intermediate). On the Snow Canyon path, they go to Lava Ridge Intermediate.

Boundaries can change, so do not assume every address in Tuscan Hills goes to the same middle and high schools. Check the current assignment for any specific address with the district. For outside school data, GreatSchools and Niche both publish numbers you can weigh yourself.

This is the detail that trips up an online search of this neighborhood. Washington County's official subdivision plat records this land as Tuscan Hills across all four phases. Its parcel IDs (the county's number for each piece of land) follow the pattern SG-TUNH, and Tuscan Hills is the name on record. But the Washington County MLS has also listed individual homes on these same streets under the name Tuscany Hills. One sale I reviewed on Province Way was listed in the MLS as "Tuscany Hills". Its county parcel ID read SG-TUNH, which ties it straight back to the same recorded plat.

I do not treat that as two different neighborhoods. It is one recorded subdivision listed under two spellings over the years, likely a typing habit that stuck. When you search or pull recent sales, check both names. Then check the parcel ID or plat on any specific home before you assume it belongs to one or the other.

One more thing to watch for: a builder has marketed a separate "Coming Soon" community using the Tuscan Hills name elsewhere in St. George. That project is not the recorded Province Way plat this page covers. If a listing or ad uses the name, check the actual address and parcel before assuming it is this neighborhood.
