Rare opportunity to own magnificent acreage directly bordering National Forest and established designated wilderness in the foothills of the Chiricahua Mountains. Properties in this position seldom come to market. At 5,000 ft. elevation with dramatic 1,000-foot cliff bluffs, sweeping views of the Animas Valley below & spectacular sunrise views of the Peloncillos. Pin-drop quiet except for the birds & breeze. Approx. 150 oak trees along w/ barrel cactus, prickly pear, cholla, yucca, ocotillo, manzanita, & several native grass varieties. Wildlife here is abundant. Improvements include partial fencing, 3/4 mile of interior roads, and established pad sites provide a head-start on development. Electric is within approximately 1/8 mile. RU-4 zoning, dividable lot. Seller financing available. Bordering National Forest and congressionally designated wilderness means the western boundary is permanently protected from development so that views, wildlife habitat, and privacy are preserved by law. Ultimate tranquility and seclusion. This is an exceptionally rare land position in one of Arizona's most scenic and sought-after mountain corridors.
Portal is internationally recognized for birding, herping, and dark sky observation, drawing enthusiasts from across the country to spot species found nowhere else in the U.S. A restaurant, post office, library, and clinic are in Portal; additional dining, a post office, museum, and gallery are nearby in Rodeo, NM. Gas, hay, and hardware are approximately 26 miles away in Animas, NM.
The topography and geology are fascinating and varied, with a small wooded canyon at the southwest quadrant of the property. There are numerous large boulders, rock bluffs and slopes to climb & explore. The high point of the property is the southwest corner with an aggressive slope, which decreases & levels to potential building areas towards the east and north.
Three-quarters of a mile of interior roads connect established pad sites throughout the property, meaningfully reducing the time and cost to develop.
Lot is dividable with an interior partition fence, offering potential for future subdivision. Contact listing agent for seller financing terms. Buyer to verify all utility connections and development requirements with Cochise County.
