Property Summary
Discover your slice of authentic Arizona high desert on this expansive 40-acre property in Big Valley Ranches, where endless views meet unlimited possibilities. Located at 6,110 feet elevation in Apache County, this gently sloping terrain offers the perfect canvas for your off-grid dreams with the freedom to build exactly what you envision.
Property Overview
This remarkable 40-acre parcel sits in the heart of Arizona's high desert country, surrounded by the wide-open spaces and scattered juniper trees that define this rugged landscape. The property's gentle southwest slope and mostly flat terrain make it ideal for multiple building sites while providing stunning mountain views to the south. At over 6,100 feet elevation, you'll enjoy cooler temperatures than lower Arizona deserts while still benefiting from abundant sunshine.
Location & Access
Situated along N7462 road frontage, this property offers straightforward dirt road access typical of the region. While some seasonal washes require attention during heavy weather, the property remains accessible year-round with a high-clearance vehicle. St. Johns, the Apache County seat, provides essential services just 50 miles away, striking the perfect balance between seclusion and convenience.
No Restrictions, Maximum Freedom
Unlike many rural properties, this land comes with zero HOA or POA restrictions. Apache County's Agricultural General zoning gives you exceptional flexibility to build traditional homes, alternative structures like earthships and tiny homes, or use RVs for both camping and permanent living (with proper septic). Whether you're planning a weekend retreat, full-time homestead, or investment property, you have the freedom to develop according to your vision.
Recreational Paradise
Your property borders some of Arizona's best recreational opportunities. State Trust Land sits just two parcels north, providing immediate access to thousands of additional acres for hunting, hiking, and exploration with proper permits. The property lies within Game Management Unit 27M, offering excellent hunting for elk, mule deer, antelope, and turkey. Petrified Forest National Park is only 51 minutes away, while the vast Sitgreaves National Forest provides endless outdoor adventures within a few hours' drive.
Utilities & Infrastructure
This off-grid property puts you in control of your utilities. Well water is available with typical depths around 280 feet for the area. Solar power is highly viable given the elevation and abundant sunshine, while propane delivery serves heating and cooking needs.
Investment Potential
High desert properties in this elevation range are increasingly sought after as people discover the advantages of cooler summers and authentic rural living. The combination of reasonable access, recreational opportunities, and complete building freedom makes this an exceptional value in today's market.

Rachel made the entire land purchase a "piece of cake". She walked me through everything and was right on top of things. As soon as I sent the money, the deed was notarized and recorded only a couple of days later. I just visited my new property in Wolf Creek Montana today and I am very pleased with the purchase. Thank you again 😊
The Ashbrook Land Company is a superb company. Their communication skills and desire to help you obtain the land of your dreams is top notch. Probably some of the best service I’ve had when buying a piece of land. I would recommend them to anyone.
I just purchased a piece of land from Ashbrook Land Co., LLC, and I am very happy with the professional yet personal approach that Bob and Rachel Ashbrook gave to me.The whole process was easy and painless, and only took a couple of days. Everything was done online, but I felt completely secure giving out my personal information, because I think the Ashbrooks are truly honest people to deal with.
