About this property

This secluded ranch house on a spacious 5-acre lot offers a perfect retreat

This private adobe ranch house, nestled near the foothills of the Tortolita Mountains, is surrounded by lush desert vegetation, offering an ideal retreat just 15 minutes east of the I-10/Marana junction. Known for its dark skies, the area is rated as a "green zone" by DarkSite Finder, making it excellent for stargazing. The property is perfect for embracing the outdoors, with plenty of shaded areas, a spacious porch, and a patio with a covered bar. A barbecue pit is available for fireside cooking, along with a separate propane Weber grill, and wireless internet is accessible throughout.

The house is super clean, ideal for anyone looking to experience life in the beautiful, semi-remote Sonoran Desert. There’s ample parking, including space for RVs and trailers, and the property provides direct access to extensive state trust and federal land, perfect for off-road exploration. Pets are welcome with advance notification, and two portable 20-foot pet fences are available upon request, allowing the patio and porch area to be enclosed.

Inside, you’ll find a fully equipped kitchen and dining area with room to accommodate guests. The newly renovated bathroom includes a large walk-in shower, plus a full-size washer and dryer. The master bedroom is well-furnished, featuring a queen bed, a flat-screen smart TV with Netflix, a dresser, and a queen-size Lazy Boy pull-out couch that sleeps two.

Access to the property is via paved roads with the last mile on a graded dirt road, leading to a secure, lockable gate. Situated on a 5-acre parcel, dense vegetation provides full privacy, and the entire property is fenced with cattle fencing, keeping roaming cattle out, as Arizona is an open range state.

Experience the beauty and tranquility of the Sonoran Desert in this semi-remote adobe ranch house, designed for relaxation and outdoor enjoyment.
