Located in the established Bonito Valley Ranch subdivision, this 36.62-acre parcel combines excellent year-round access with valuable existing improvements. A POA-maintained dirt road (N6631) leads directly to the property, where previous owners have already completed key infrastructure work - including a bladed driveway leading to an 8x10 shed and established camping area. The property features distinctive landscaping with decorative boulders and local petrified wood throughout.

At 5,780 feet elevation, the terrain is primarily level with a gentle 5% slope at the southern end, where you'll find unique badlands features in the southwestern corner. Three seasonal washes provide natural drainage across the property. The parcel is near sections of both BLM and State Trust Land, offering expanded recreational opportunities beyond your property lines. Cell service is available directly on the property, making communication convenient even in this off-grid setting.

Notable Improvements:

• 8x10 shed with previous solar wiring intact

• Bladed driveway suitable for RVs - no 4x4 required

• Established camping area with boulder landscaping

• Natural petrified wood features throughout

The location offers an ideal balance of privacy and accessibility. St. Johns is just 17.8 miles away (23-minute drive), providing easy access to essential amenities including St. Johns Medical Center, grocery stores, hardware stores, and restaurants. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate being just 12 miles from Lyman Lake State Park, known for excellent boating and fishing, and 45 miles from the Petrified Forest National Park. The property's proximity to the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest opens up additional recreational opportunities.

Utility options align with traditional off-grid solutions. The previous solar wiring in the shed provides a head start for power setup, and the water table averages 55 feet in this area, offering potential for well drilling. Water hauling is also a common solution in this region.

The Bonito Valley Ranch POA keeps annual dues low at $280 and maintains the roads while imposing minimal restrictions. There are no minimum building size requirements, and the property is zoned Agricultural-General. Basic protective covenants allow for residential, recreational, and hobby farming/ranching uses, with simple limitations: no commercial livestock operations, no swine, and water flush toilets required.

Please note: The existing 8x10 shed is sold in as-is condition and is not included in the property's advertised price or valuation. While it provides a valuable starting point for off-grid living, with previous solar wiring intact, Ashbrook Land Company makes no warranties or guarantees regarding its condition or future usability. The shed is offered as a complimentary feature to enhance the property's off-grid potential.

With remarkably low annual property taxes of just $93.24 (2024), this property offers an excellent opportunity for both recreational use and future development.
