A Solar-powered refuge nestled near the Chiricahua Mountains

Trees. Flowing water. Grassland. Quiet. Privacy. Post and beam home with open plan inside, two-car garage/shop, set on 12 acres.  Off a dirt road with fabulous mountain views , along with a vineyard for a, not-too-near neighbor, on one side. Turkey Creek runs at the south boundary of the property, traveling changing paths on the property, close enough to enjoy, yet not close enough to worry about flooding near home. Walk out the door and head right for the Chiricauhua National Monument while ruminating on that novel you’ve been meaning to write.

This 1 Bed/1Bath, 1087 sq. ft. home was built in 1996. It has solar panels and a back up generator. It is one of the first homes on this road.

Trees and grasses on a South East Arizona Property…Yes it is true. This is a lush piece of land with boundary that is Rock Creek. This creek runs during the summer monsoon months and sometimes, as it did this year, it runs after a wetter winter. The property is less than 2 miles from the Chiriachua Mountains.

Your neighbors are vineyards

This landscape promotes lots of birdwatching and wildlife. In the evening you can stargaze till your heart is content.

This home is not only situated in a lovely landscape but it is extremely energy efficient and self sufficient.

The washing machine does your laundry with minimum electricity and minimum water. It is energy star efficient. The walls are R16 insulated and the ceiling is R22 insulated. This home maintains comfort in summer and winter with minimum use of fuel.

There is the possibility of a grid tie system along with having the already available solar system on this property. The installed solar power has 1150 watts.

The private well is a valuable resource. It is 720 ft deep and pumps 35 gallons per minute.

$199,900

The dinette in the kitchen area has a table on a roll cart that can convert the whole area to a bed.
