10100 E Granite Dells Rd Payson, AZ 85541

This is the finest National Forest In-Holding in AZ. 80 acres surrounded by 2.9 million acres of Tonto National Forest. Minutes from Payson and The Rim Golf Club and only an hour and a half from Scottsdale. The previous owners were national developers who established R-1 PAD Zoning. They submitted a 38 lot plat to the County. The Ranch has electric, 2 capped wells and a spring. Stewart Creek runs through the property for a half a mile. The acreage combines a variety of terrains and landscapes. There is a 20 acre rich meadow on the west half of the ranch. This acreage is ringed by high set building sites set amid spectacular boulder formations and mature evergreens. There are stunning views in every direction of the Stewart Mountains, the Mogollon Rim and the Granite Dells. The property also boasts a spacious viewing gazebo with sweeping overlooks of the adjoining National Forest wilderness. There is potential from this land for the development of a premier residential community. It is also ideal for an equestrian facility, church/children's camp, vineyards, organic orchards, or a corporate or family retreat. A quite and secluded estate of this size with the protection of a sprawling National Forest bordering it in all directions yet only minutes from one of Arizona's most sought after communities is truly a rare find.
