Set on 36.28 beautiful acres six miles southeast of St. Johns in Apache County, this secluded ranch tract blends rolling hills, rain-cut arroyos, and open grassy meadows dotted with evergreen juniper. At roughly 6,100 feet, the air is clean and crisp, and the four-season climate is famously workablemild winters, abundant sunshine, and comfortably warm summers that cool further with the afternoon monsoon breezes. Access is straightforward: from St. Johns youll travel maintained roads, then county-recorded dirt easements the last few miles to the property. Two road fronts provide excellent ingress to interior building and RV sites. The southwest rises offer the prime cabin/RV spotshigh-set, treed knolls with 360 vistas, full solar exposure, and big-sky stargazing at night. The acreage itself is a pleasing mix of evergreen woodland and roughly 20 acres of central meadowideal for horses, small orchards, gardens, or simply open space for views and wildlife watching. Soils are fine, tillable sandy loam that local growers use for apples, cherries, plums, pears, vegetables, and summer corn. Native grasses are nutrient-rich and largely free of surface rock, making grazing straightforward. Water is excellent in this part of the county. The parcel sits over the broad Coconino Sandstone aquifer; area well depths are generally economical, and windmill pumping is common. (As always, verify well and water-rights specifics with ADWR and your well driller.) Power here is typically by solar; the sun exposure makes off-grid systems practical.
