Can a single WS-C3850-48T-S support routing for 250 users + 250 voice Phones (assume avg load user and phone)? I know it is not recommended to have a single core switch but this was already decided upon. Just want to make sure it can handle the load. What is the best way to size the capacity of a switch? Is there a Cisco tool for this?

Frankly, if the matter has already been decided then there's nothing to discuss.
With such limited information of "250 users + 250 voice Phones" ... sure -- "might work".

As @Leo Laohoo mentioned if it decided nothing can be discussed here.
Adding other note to be safe, you may experience poor performance and maintenance required like an upgrade (this will have to challenge) - since you adding all in one basket.
Cisco produces many CVD ( Cisco VaLid designs ) for best practice and they all over website for reference.
Before deciding the equipment always consult local Cisco partner and SE to take the second opinion for the bill of material is correct? ( so the business can up and running as expected).
