Dreaming of leaving behind the hustle and bustle of everyday life? Spanning 40 acres of fully fenced-in land a number of miles northeast of Winona, AZ, this peaceful haven fulfills ideal off-grid living without sacrificing comfort. A winding dirt road cuts through the serene Pinon-Juniper countryside, passing an occasional structure on the expansive landscape. Three bedrooms, 2 baths, plus two outdoor living areas overlooking endless horizons and stunning natural vistas await in the primary residence. Inside, abundant sunlight spills through multiple windows to accentuate the mellow character of the interior. Vaulted ceilings rise above the gathering areas that bask in the warmth of a cast iron, wood-burning stove to create a cozy ambiance on brisk, high-desert nights. Any avid entertainer would appreciate the seamless flow from the living room to the dining area where a chandelier casts a soft glow during intimate dinner parties. Steps away, there's an alcove that can be customized into an office, a den, or even a guest's quarters, if you need. Soft carpet gives way to easy-care tile across the kitchen with a breakfast bar to accommodate extra countertop space and seating. There's an available suite of appliances for whipping up your hearty home-cooked meals and ample storage for your culinary gadgets. Sunlit and comfortable, the bedrooms are optimal for relaxing after a long day. Two out of three come with walk-in closets for storage, including the primary suite. Discover a double vanity in its ensuite along with a shower-tub combo. Greet the day or the evening on either of two tranquil outdoor spots: first, a large covered porch extends the entire length of the home's west frontage, overlooking breathtaking vistas of the San Francisco Peaks and other nearby mountains. Or second, on the opposite side, facing the Little Colorado River Valley, a sturdy arbor stretches along the house from end to end, with a propane oven and griddle to equip you for weekend cookouts. . A wide variety of wildlife, including antelope, elk, coyotes, and deer, may pay you a visit, plus cultural landmarks of the Sinagua people are in the vicinity. Explore the 40'x50' Quonset hut that can hold six vehicles while still providing enough room for a workshop, firewood storage, and more. You'll have two underground water cisterns, one with a 7,500-gallon capacity for hauled water to be used in the house and another with 10,000-gallons of rain catchment pumped by the watering system to irrigate the surrounding trees. Other bonus features include robust solar electricity, a fully functional septic system, and a thermostatic-controlled, forced-air propane furnace for backup heating. Grab the chance to enjoy this idyllic hideaway by coming for a tour before the opportunity passes you by!
