Escape to your own high-desert hideout where 40 pristine acres, towering granite boulders, abundant water, and complete privacy create an extraordinary off-grid retreat unlike anything else on the market. Located just 30 minutes from Prescott, this unique sanctuary offers the rare opportunity to embrace self-sufficient living without sacrificing comfort. Set at approximately 4,400 feet in elevation, the property enjoys a mild four-season climate ideal for year-round living. Once a productive organic farm, the fertile land previously supported vineyards and gardens, offering endless possibilities for farming, homesteading, equestrian use, recreation, or creating a lasting family legacy. The thoughtfully designed 1,150-square-foot residence features two bedrooms and one bathroom and is constructed with energy-efficient 12-inch AAC block walls that provide exceptional insulation through every season. Inside, you'll find stained concrete floors, an open-concept living area, a cozy wood-burning stove, gas appliances, and a comfortable layout designed for off-grid efficiency. An expansive 800-square-foot covered wraparound porch provides the perfect place to enjoy breathtaking views, spectacular sunsets, and peaceful evenings, while a nearby wood-fired hot tub offers the ultimate place to relax beneath the stars. Additional improvements dramatically expand the property's versatility. An 1250-sq ft barn includes two horse stalls, storage areas, covered porch, and a guest suite complete with a half bath--ideal for visitors, caretakers, or multi-generational living. The impressive 4,200 sq ft unfinished concrete block workshop presents exceptional potential for business, storage, or future residential expansion. Four spacious rooms provide incredible flexibility, including a 720-square-foot space already plumbed for a full kitchen and bathroom and a 530-square-foot room plumbed for a half bath with additional washer/dryer hookups, creating the opportunity for approximately 1,250 square feet of future living space. A rare 500-square-foot underground two-room cellar further enhances the property, making it ideal for food storage, wine production, workshop space, or countless other uses. Water is one of this property's greatest assets. A seasonal creek meanders through the valley, complemented by two ponds, three wells, and a gravity-fed water system that supports a truly sustainable lifestyle. A classic 14-foot Aeromotor windmill adds both character and functionality to this remarkable homestead. Accessed through a locked ranch gate at the end of a private road, the property offers unmatched peace, privacy, and security while remaining conveniently close to Prescott's shopping, dining, medical facilities, and entertainment. Whether you're searching for an off-grid homestead, equestrian property, private retreat, family compound, income-producing opportunity, or a place to build a lasting legacy, this exceptional high-desert oasis offers possibilities that are increasingly difficult to find. Properties with this combination of acreage, abundant water, extensive infrastructure, and complete seclusion rarely become available. Experience the freedom, tranquility, and endless potential of this truly one-of-a-kind Arizona retreat with no CCR's.
