Located in northwestern Arizona halfway between Kingman and Lake Havasu. Santa Fe Ranch is a community of about 130,000 acres of land over a large and abundant aquifer. With a dry, semi-desert climate, the property is situated at the base of the majestic Hualapai Mountains and features gentle sloping terrain that moves into some foothills and boulder It is in close proximity to Las Vegas which is just over 120 miles away. A great year round climate with hunting and hiking opportunities in the adjacent Hualapai and McCracken Mountains and the many federal lands that surround the community. Mineral and water rights. Build your dream home, retire in beauty, a 2nd home. price negotiable. While I was serving in the US Army and had the opportunity to be stationed all over the Country, I started to think about where I would like to retire. Here were some of my thoughts: California was too expensive and I did not want to have to worry about earthquakes and traffic. Oregon and Washington State were viable options but rain for weeks did not appeal to my arthritic bones. Middle part of the USA, tornados, snow storms, need I say more. East coast, Hurricanes, bitter cold winters, cost of living. Gulf Coast, Hurricanes. Mountain West, bitter cold winters, snow storms, and earthquakes. That left very few places to live. One day, I found the answer, Mohave County, AZ. It has Lake Havasu, Kingman, Oatman, close to the Grand Canyon, Laughlin and Las Vegas, NV. Mild Winters and a typical summer would be comparable to the Salt Lake City area, where I live. And you can engineer your home for comfort in the summer. So I bought 2, 40 acre parcels in Yucca, smack dab between Kingman and Lake Havasu. 2 hours from Las Vegas. I bought 2 parcels for a reason, I wanted 40 acres for me. My sister's family owns the 40 acres next to me. Plenty of room for our family. The other 40 acres was an investment. When I retire, I would sell the other 40 acres. I bought this property in January 1998. Over the years, I have been contacted by many developers to buy the land. Right now I own the mineral and water rights and the community bylaws say that you can subdivide to 5 acres. I feared that the money of developers would change that and they would stack houses upon each other. I am glad that the land has stayed pristine. Wild Burros, horses, deer, coyote, bobcats, wild boar, oh, and cattle too, all roam freely in this valley. I look forward to building my retirement home and having great neighbors. $60,000 for all 40 acres or $45,000 for 30 acres or $30,000 for 20 acres. Or $15,0000 for 10 acres. That is as small a lot as I am willing to subdivide. Let's negotiate. Pics, 1, 5-13, 15-16 are from my parcel, the other pics show the surrounding area within a few minutes drive.
