TWO HOMES on over TWO ACRES of tall pines, backing to national forest! Versatile property, and a rare opportunity for a sweet get-away in all four seasons, or a break from summer heat, or as a fantastic rental property. Classic mountain cabin + guest cottage are located right on the loop in Christopher Creek, less than 2 miles on the adjacent forest road up to the spring-fed headwaters! It's a gorgeous area for hiking, picnicking, & fishing (seasonal bi-weekly stocking of the Creek with trout,etc). Unique main home has a master bedroom with an amazing view from the balcony, as well as an add'l loft bedroom. Open style floorplan, with oak floors & large windows on three sides for plenty of natural light; there's a woodstove to cozy up to on cool evenings, as well. Custom bath features stone and glass brick walls & loads of storage; separate laundry room. Kitchen has an island with granite countertops, & the large decks (over 700 s.f.) in front & back offer the perfect setting for relaxation, entertaining, and watching the wildlife that meander through. Darling studio-style cottage provides additional space for overflow, guests, or tenants, complete with its own kitchenette and a bath with shower. This property is on a shared well, with two of the three shares owned by this particular owner; further, the third share is owned by the neighbor, altho he drilled his own and has never hooked into this well. It's a rare opportunity to enjoy a secluded but conveniently located piece of paradise, right in the middle of the most beautiful forest in Arizona, with unparalleled opportunities for hiking, camping, fishing, stargazing, and more. Treat yourself to a beautiful drive, come check it out, and make an offer on this unique property! Parcel numbers are 303-10-107 B and 303-10-107 A. Seller and listing agents are related.
