Blackhawk

 

 

Blackhawk is a master-planned community that offers the highest in standards of luxury living available. It is the perfect choice for raising a family or planning a retirement home. The history of the community offers insight as to both its popularity and elegance. At the turn of the century the land in the foothills of Mt. Diablo was once a farm for thoroughbred horses. In 1979, Blackhawk was created as an enclave of luxury homes. The centerpiece of Blackhawk is the two beautifully landscaped golf courses and their clubhouses: the Lakeside and the Falls.

 

There is no shortage of amenities in Blackhawk for a comfortable lifestyle. Blackhawk has a country club, two golf courses, sports complex, restaurants, and the adjacent Blackhawk Plaza. Blackhawk Plaza is a shopping center located just outside the Blackhawk Country Club. This visually appealing locale is home to many restaurants and fine shopping. The central feature of the plaza is its dramatic courtyard. Blackhawk Plaza also is home to a movie theater and two museums. The popular Blackhawk Auto Museum is a Smithsonian affiliate and draws visitors from around the world.

The community is also well known for its safety and high quality of life, attracting many notable residents. Blackhawk is a popular place to live for professional athletes and media personalities. NBA basketball players, MLB baseball players, sports commentators and musical superstars all have chosen to make their homes within this vibrant community.

 

There are six individual gated communities that make up Blackhawk, all of which are connected by a three-mile-long recreation trail that residents use for jogging, cycling and walking their pets. The areas range from Hidden Oaks where properties sit on spacious, half-acre lots; Oakridge where large estates sit on a private cul-de-sac; Saddleback with some of the most prestigious homes in the community; the upscale condominium complex of Silveroak; the golf course homes of Silver Maple that are designed around the greens and fairways of the Blackhawk Country Club; and the large main gate community of Blackhawk Country Club.

Blackhawk is a truly lovely community in which to live. Much of its success can be attributed to the contributions and caring of the homeowners.
