A truly extraordinary Southern Arizona ranchette – 20 private acres with the Babocomari River meandering through the property, with land extending to both sides of the river. Rich with natural beauty and character, this one-of-a-kind retreat offers exceptional privacy, sweeping views, abundant wildlife, and the kind of tranquility that is increasingly difficult to find. At the heart of the property is a custom home featuring 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Warm Saltillo and authentic Baja tile from Mexico complement soaring ceilings finished in 1.5-inch Georgia yellow pine tongue-and-groove. Hand-peeled Ponderosa pine, personally selected from the forests near Reserve, New Mexico, adds rustic character, while Pella windows with solar shades frame the surrounding landscape. A spectacular wood-burning fireplace with blower and integrated ductwork provides both ambiance and functional warmth throughout the home. Designed to embrace the outdoors, the home opens to beautiful patios and intimate courtyards perfect for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or simply taking in the quiet. A custom steel-roof screened gazebo creates an idyllic place to watch birds and wildlife, and enjoy Arizona sunsets. The property is exceptionally well suited for a ranchette, homestead, artist's retreat, workshop, or anyone craving room to create. Two substantial metal buildings provide tremendous flexibility: a 40'x20' garage and a 50'x30' workshop featuring a separate entrance plus an approximately 10'x18' black room and print shop area with mini-split systems. The configuration offers exciting possibilities for studio, workshop, hobby, storage, or potential conversion of a portion of the building to an additional living suite. A 40'x30' greenhouse with a separately fenced garden area offers wonderful potential for organic gardening and year-round growing. A private well, well house, and cross-fencing along portions of the property add to the functionality of this remarkable acreage. Despite its peaceful, private setting, the property remains remarkably accessible – approximately 18 minutes to the Sonoita/Elgin wine country, 20 minutes to Tombstone, 25 minutes to Sierra Vista or Benson, 45 minutes to Bisbee, and about 70 minutes to Tucson International Airport. This isn't simply a home in the country…it's a rare opportunity to own a remarkable piece of Southern Arizona.
