Property DescriptionOff-Grid Arizona Homestead on Nearly 30 Acres | Solar Power | Private Well | No HOA | Horse Property
Discover a rare opportunity to own a private off-grid homestead in the Weaver Mountains on nearly 30 acres of scenic Arizona land. Located behind a locked gate just 3.7 miles down a private dirt road, this property offers the privacy, independence, and wide-open space buyers are searching for.
Situated at just under 5,000 ft elevation, the property enjoys cooler mountain temperatures, four mild seasons, beautiful views, and a seasonal creek, making it an ideal escape from the desert heat. Surrounded by junipers and pinion pines, the setting provides both natural beauty and exceptional privacy.
The 3,040 sq ft custom two-story home was designed for efficient off-grid living using Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) for superior insulation and energy efficiency. The home is also positioned to take advantage of passive solar heating and cooling, while two propane stoves provide additional comfort in winter. A durable metal roof adds long-term reliability.
Inside, the open floor plan features soaring pine cathedral ceilings, a spacious kitchen with granite countertops, built-in appliances, and a large island with sink and storage, and plenty of natural light throughout.
Additional living and workspace highlights include:
- 480 sq ft glassed and screened Arizona Room with mountain views
- Main-level primary bedroom, office, kitchen, and laundry
- ¾'' solid red oak flooring on the upper level
- New plank vinyl flooring on the lower level
- 608 sq ft workshop with overhead door that can also function as a tandem 2-car garage
The property is well-equipped for off-grid living, homesteading, and outdoor recreation, featuring:
- Private well with 5,000 gallon water storage tank
- Solar-powered well pump
- Dedicated solar equipment and battery building
- Oversized detached carport
- Two-bay covered RV parking
- Fully fenced backyard with motion lighting
- Irrigated and enclosed garden area
- Custom in-ground cook pit for outdoor gatherings
- Firewise mitigation completed Spring 2023
With minimal community restrictions and NO HOA, the property provides flexibility for horses, livestock, gardening, recreation vehicles, or additional structures.
This one-owner home has been carefully maintained and offers a unique chance to own a self-sufficient Arizona mountain property with acreage, privacy, and off-grid infrastructure already in place.
If you're searching for Arizona off-grid property, acreage homes, solar-powered homes, homestead land, or horse property, this exceptional retreat is one you don't want to miss.
