________________________________________

This off-grid ranch combines the seclusion you're seeking with surprisingly practical access. Well-maintained dirt roads run along both the northern and eastern property boundaries, meaning you can reach your land in a standard vehicle - no high-clearance or 4WD required under normal conditions. The nearly level terrain makes this an ideal spot for parking an RV or establishing a building site, while two seasonal streambeds running through the property create varied landscape that attracts local wildlife.

Woodland Valley Ranch maintains most roads annually and provides access to a community well for all property owners at just $200/year. While we recommend water hauling from nearby St. Johns as your primary source, having the community well as a backup option adds flexibility. The property sits above the Coconino Aquifer, so drilling your own well is also an option if you prefer complete independence.

Apache County's Agricultural-General zoning gives you maximum freedom to build or use the land as you envision. The county actively welcomes alternative construction methods including earthships, tiny homes, and other green builds. Traditional manufactured and mobile homes are also permitted. The light covenants maintain the area's rural character without limiting your creativity.

Public lands are located nearby in the area, providing opportunities for hiking, ATV riding, and hunting beyond your own 38.5 acres. You're positioned in a sparsely-populated area of the Colorado Plateau at 6,140 feet elevation, surrounded largely by ranches and public land. The flat grassland terrain dotted with juniper clusters offers classic high-desert scenery with over 300 days of sunshine annually.

St. Johns is 30 miles away for groceries, gas, and basic supplies. Show Low is about 75 miles away and offers hospital services and an airport. The property sits just 2 miles west of the Arizona-New Mexico border.
