Watch the sun rise and the sun set in the American Southwest

Concho is situated close to the border of New Mexico and just off of Route 61 in Arizona in Apache County. You’ll be just a stone’s throw from any number of Native American reservations, national forests, and historic monuments in the area. Hit the links at nearby Concho Valley Country Club or head to Concho Lake for a little fishing.

Predominantly known as a rich farming community, the village of Concho itself offers quaint restaurants, shops, a small market and a gas station. For bigger shopping excursions you can head into Show Low or all the way across the border to Gallup, New Mexico.

Talk about a painterly landscape. Your morning sunrise and evening sunsets are like nothing you’ve ever seen – they are literally straight out of a painting. Mountains and plains are as far as the eye can see. A peaceful and quiet piece of the countryside is what you will get in Apache County.

There is no shortage of places to explore, including your pick of national forests. The Apache Sitgreaves, Tonto, Coconino, or the infamous Petrified Forest are all within driving distance. The area surrounding Concho area was once populated by Indigenous Ancestral Puebloan peoples, with many of the original pueblos still in tact. This part of Apache County has the most Indian reservation designated land of any county in the United States. The ancestors of the existing Apache and Navajo tribes in Arizona may have settled in the area as early as 1100 AD.

Apache County has no time limit to build and pretty much no restrictions when it comes to what to build and how big (or how small). Single family homes, mobile homes, manufactured homes and even RV’s (with the right permits) are ok. You can camp temporarily and for a longer stay a permit can be obtained. There’s no time like the present so give us a call today to secure this beautiful piece of land.
