36 Acre Wilderness Freedom Ranch
Saint Johns, AZ 85936
Apache County, Arizona
Ranch Description
Heavily treed and extremely secluded, this quiet and peaceful 36.75 acre off grid ranch is situated high atop the Little Colorado plateau at a cool clear 6,100’. The surrounding wilderness lands stretch for miles in all directions free of houses, noise and people. This part of northern Arizona has been sought after by generations of ranching families whose herds of cattle and horses graze the areas rich native grasses which grow in a soft mantle of sandy loam soils. This is truly self-sufficiency quality land with the soil, water and weather conditions for homesteading free from city zoning and permitting challenges. Outdoor work is rarely curtailed do to the weather. The winters here are mild, typically producing less than 18” of snow most of which falls at a rate of two to three inches per storm and melts into the soil with a day or two. The average high temperature in the coldest month of January is 50 degrees. Summer temperatures are mild with daytime highs averaging in the upper 80’s. Private wells are allowed. The land has a secure groundwater supply from its positioning over the massive Coconino Sandstone Aquifer. Drilling depths are economical and windmill pumping common throughout the area. The Arizona Department of Water Resources water report for the property is available upon request. This property is rectangular in design measuring approx.. 2,200’ by 950’. A maintained road provides access along the property’s western border. Entering the property from the access road, you pass through mixed stands of pinon pines and Utah junipers spreading across a carpet of five native range grasses and mountain wildflowers. Approaching the back ten acres of the land, you come to a scenic rock lined arroyo which channels the summer monsoon rains across the land on their way to the Zuni River in the distant valley below. The far eastern part of the acreage abuts the base of a boulder strewn mesa which rises above the arroyo and provides a scenic backdrop to the back end of the land. There are several prime building sites throughout the property, each with excellent solar exposures and commanding views of the surrounding mountains and valleys. Each of these viewpoints will provide uninterrupted overlooks from outdoor decks and cabin windows. This is a very remote location and best suited for people seeking large acreage ownership well away from neighboring owners and who place a premium on the freedom to use and work their land in a wilderness setting free of urban noise and pollution. All corner markers have been set by registered surveyors and the road access to the property is built entirely along recorded deeded easements. The residential, recreational and agricultural zoning allows livestock, camping and RV use at the owner’s discretion. $33,600, $3,360 down payment, $289 month with no qualifying seller provided financing. Seller will pay all escrow fees through First American Title. For a brochure containing topographical maps, weather chart, photo, and area town info, call First United Realty at m
