24 Canelo Hills Rd, Elgin, AZ 85611

Built in 1926 and extensively remodeled by the current and previous owners, this 1,720 square foot, 2 bedroom/2 bath, home with den and full-length enclosed front porch is filled with rustic, romantic charm. Set in the Canelo Hills, the home has unobstructed views of the Huachuca and Mustang Mountains. The ±24.31 acre property, combining parcels 108-37-005A and 108-37-005B, is bordered by Forest Service land to the north and Nature Conservancy land on the south and east, giving the feel of a larger property and allowing immediate access to miles of open land for walking, hiking, bird watching, and horseback riding. Several additional improvements included on the property open the possibility of multiple uses. A 2-bedroom, 1 bath Cowboy House; 1-bedroom Apartment attached to the garage; and newer 1-room cabin, which was originally an office but has also been used as an extra bedroom, allow room for a caretaker, family gatherings, or personal retreat. The current owners had a cement slab poured in the 5-car garage, allowing room for vehicles and a workshop. The original icehouse and well house provide room for storage. Beyond pouring the slab in the garage and enclosing the full-length front porch with Pella sliding windows and weatherproof doors making it a comfortable Arizona room, the recent upgrades also include: remodeling the kitchen with new Frigidaire Professional Series appliances and additional custom cabinetry and counterspace; installing a free-standing wood burning stove in the existing fireplace to improve efficiency; Whirlpool front load washer and dryer installed in the laundry room; upgrading/replacing the original septic system; building additional fencing to allow more pasture rotation; installing gutters; and, extensive trimming of the native oaks and brush around the property to allow more sunlight to filter through and adding to the aesthetic beauty of the property. Central to the charm and romance of the property is the traditional red wooden barn. With the original horses' nameplates still on the stalls, the 8-stall barn is functional, as well as beautiful. Several paddocks and shade structures allow room for horses and other livestock. Being located close to Highway 83 allows easy access, but a hill along the highway provides a buffer and privacy. All structures and primary well are located on the ±13.37 acre Parcel #108-37-005A, and Parcel #108-37-005B consists of ±10.94 acres of vacant land with a capped well. Bring your family, your horses, and settle into the quiet, rural lifestyle!
