Bring your tool belt and carpentry skills to finish this block home shell and save you some $$$! What we have started could be your dream home. Located a 5 minute drive from Sitgreaves National Forest and a short hike to Arizona State Land, is this beautiful home shell on just over 1 acre. The water, phone, internet and electric are all to the home structure already. This "home in the making" was designed with fire resistance in mind. 8" block walls are filled with concrete for extra strength and durability and a steel roof and steel framing was also installed to help resist the dangers that can come with living in and near the forest. The Hardie Board siding installation has already been started and provides an extra layer of protection and is rot and insect resistant. This approx. 1650 sf home structure also has an attached 750 sf garage. Since the garage is oversized, it will easily accommodate 2 cars and/or a work/hobby space. There are plans for up to 3 bedrooms and up to 2 baths in this home and the septic tank is also ready to be installed by you or the company of your choosing. Since the interior walls have not been built yet, you are able to customize the floor plan to your needs and liking. The home shell/site is surrounded by wildlife and vegetation. There are wildflowers that pop up with the summer rains as well as pinion pine and juniper trees for lots of shade and places for the birds to hang out or a hammock to be strung up. The number of bird species to be seen here is amazing and include Stellar and Western Jays, both Western and Mountain Blue Birds, Chickadees, Tit Mouse, various Finches and many, many others like hummingbirds. The wildlife thrives here as well and you can expect to hear and see elk on a regular basis but they will be thick in the fall as rut season begins. There are coyotes, jack rabbits, squirrels, and the occasional deer too! This is truly an outdoor enthusiast dream! If you are one to sit out under the stars, then you will truly enjoy an evening of stargazing here as well. This property is just far enough outside of Pinetop/Lakeside and Show Low for you to never worry about light pollution, so bring your telescope! If shopping, restaurants, nightlife, and a movie theater is more your speed for entertainment, it's all within a short drive to town. Please note that the actual physical address is being changed by the County. The property is on CR N3085 but their system has not allocated a new physical address since the property was spit from the original 5 acres into 4 parcels. There will be a new address for it soon! This property sits on the S.E. corner of the original 5 acres. Also. please contact me rather than an agent since this is being offered as "For Sale By Owner". For some reason Zillow will always add local realtors to the listing regardless of how the listing is posted. Additionally, we do have plans for this shell that will be available to whomever purchases the property. They do not have to be used however, and you are able to change the proposed layout to some degree based off of the current window and door placements.
