Start small, but dream big in this Outdoorsman’s Paradise

Explore Willcox, a city in Cochise County, Arizona. The city is located in the Sulphur Springs Valley, a flat and sparsely populated drainage basin dotted with seasonal lakes. Enjoy being surrounded by Arizona’s most prominent mountain ranges, including the Pinaleño Mountains and the Chiricahua Mountains.

At .25 acres the lot is easy to manage, but if you crave more space, no problem because there are four adjoining lots of the same size available. You could have up to 1 acre! You’ll be just over an hour from the big city of Tucson in the southeastern corner of the state. The area takes its name from the legendary Chiricahua Apache war chief Cochise. Cochise was a popular setting for many a television show and even a movie back in the 1950’s, when cowboys and indians were all the rage.

Cochise County is all about natural beauty & adventure. Here you can hike, rock climb, camp, picnic & bird watch until your heart’s content. This area also offers opportunities for visitors to rest and relax at the many Inns, B&B’s and guest ranches. Once this property is yours, you’ll have your own camp to catch some R & R whenever you want. So, whether it’s adventure or tranquility you seek, you can find it here. Explore the Chiricahua Mountains where Cochise, and later, Geronimo once hunted and sought protection for their people. Ramsey Canyon Preserve and the San Pedro River, are home to many a wild critter, including black bear & coatimundi, and dozens of rare bird species.

Visit vineyards & wineries, from Sonoita to Dos Cabezas to Willcox or take a cave tour just south of Benson is Kartchner Caverns State Park. Don’t miss the fabled area ghost towns like Gleeson and Pearce, and of course the infamous town of Tombstone. For the history buffs, don’t miss a visit to Fort Huachuca, home of the Buffalo Soldiers, or Fort Bowie, built to protect the Butterfield Stages that carried mail & passengers through the danger of Apache Pass on their way from St. Louis to San Francisco.

The property is in a Flood Zone A, which means the area has a 1% annual chance of flooding and a 26% chance of flooding over the life of a 30-year mortgage. There is a proposed road on the northern and western portion of the lot, but it is not built yet. Your lot has no time limit to build and you can build anything for residential purposes. While you can set up camp, permanent RV’s or mobile homes are a no go. Utilities are powered by solar, wind or generator, and you can set up satellite tv along with your cellular phone service. Set up septic and a well and you’re good to go.
