Self Sufficiency Wilderness Ranch

Ranch Description

Tract 42- 38.24 acres In the cool highlands of northeastern Arizona, set amid a lush wilderness ecosystem of evergreen woodlands, nutrient rich native grasses and rich sandy loam garden soils are the 36 acre homesteads of Sierra Mountain Ranch. At an average elevation of 6,200 feet above sea level, these spacious properties enjoy pure mountain air and cool refreshing temperatures amid incomparable seclusion and privacy.

This entirely usable land is located near the entrance to Sierra Mountain Ranch approximately 23 miles northeast of St. Johns, Arizona in Apache County. The land is situated at a cool and clear 6,300 foot elevation where the comfortable temperatures allow ranch owners to enjoy their land year-round. The days here are sunny, the nighttime sky clear and the mountain air clean and refreshing. The property was surveyed to include generous portions of wooded acreage and grassy meadows. The blending of acreage here is ideal with approximately equal areas of trees and meadows. The contours of the land are nearly level, making this land very easy to fence with no washes or areas of erosion. The property's prime cabin sites are located along the crest of a treed ridge which crosses through the land's center as illustrated by the brown line on the topographical map. Cabin decks and picture windows from atop this high point will have unobstructed views of the land's rich meadows as well as scenic overlooks into the surrounding mountains and valleys. All building sites have excellent solar exposure for alternative power generation. This acreage is ideal for livestock and self sufficiency gardens and orchards. The soil throughout is a soft sandy loam. Outstanding quality groundwater is available from massive aquifer underlying this land. Drilling costs are economical and windmill driven pumping is common. A nearby convenience well is available for free water usage. $35,900, $3,590 down $309 per month p.i.
