If you've been dreaming about your own place in the sun, but thought that the hot market of the past few years had placed it out of reach, I want you to take 60 seconds to look at this gem of an acre homesite in Tucson, Arizona.

1 Acre Building Lot w/ Saguaro Cacti

6430 N Van Ark Road, Tucson, AZ 85743 View Map

Situated on the western flank of the Tucson Mountain range, this one acre building lot boasts mature ironwood trees and Saguaro cactus.

The property is surrounded on three sides by Saguaro National Park West, and on the fourth, overlooks one square mile of Arizona State Trust lands.

The entire acre is flat to gently sloping, with no arroyos draining through it. It's the perfect horse property.

That was worth a minute, wasn't it? Go ahead. Click it again.  If that's not your idea of heaven for retirement, I don't know what to do for you!

Very nice presentation, Mike, There are some mammoth saguaros there.  You have a talent for this medium.  Maybe you should buy it and build your dream home??

We have been contemplating going to video, too.  Have you been doing this for  a while?

Good Morning Mike

John and I viewed your new listing and enjoyed looking at your video - was there a home on the property at one time?  What about water and sewer to it - it looks like a very nice property.  Kathie

I'd like to know more about how you created this presentation, Mike.  I'm not sure what I like more--the presentation or the opportunity of owning such a stunning place to retire.

Mike,

As long as it never gets above 80 degrees.  I'm a fair weather girl for sure.

Fran,

When it gets above 80, we don't mind.  Thanks for commenting.

Katerina,

I love RES!  You're not the only Floridian to comment; come on out.  Bring Nestor with you!

Sally,

Thanks!  We like floods of calls.  You bring good karma!

Jan,

That's the idea!  Come on out.  And thanks for commenting.

Amanda,

You don't have to choose; you can have both, my dear.  Go to Real Estate Shows, and download the 14 day trial.  It's Jeff Turner's (AR member) company, and you'll soon be hooked.  It's SO easy.

Pat,

Happy New Year to you.  Much success; send a referral!

Kathie,

Check out Google Earth for the property; there was a home on it at one time.  Water is supplied by the Avra Valley water company, but there's no sewer hookup.  Everything in Picture Rocks is serviced by septic systems.  All other utilities to the lot line.  If you want to check it out further, go to www.MikeinTucson.com, click on the Real Estate button, scroll down to Listing Numbers, enter 20800507, and click submit.  You can see the whole listing.  Thanks for asking and for commenting.

Bonnie 

I've been using Real Estate Shows for exactly 15 days.  See my comment above, and check it you.  It's addictive, and Jeff Turner gives a discount to Active Rain members.

Patricia,

It IS like having a zillion acres and not having to pay property taxes.  Send me a contract!

Hi Mike, gorgeous property and a great presentation.  I need to ad Tucson to my next Arizona trip.  I usually stay in Scottsdale since I have friends there.  I love Arizona!

Sandy,

I get a real kick out of creating an enticing marketing piece, and you should consider building here.  It's a lot closer to Rocky Point than King County, Washington!  LOL  The seller will consider holding financing.

Peggy,

You can visit Tucson, and invite your Scottsdale friends to visit you!

John,

Thanks for commenting.  You're sure welcome to my help any time!

Lucky,

Are you back yet?  My phone hasn't rung!

Marlene,

Thanks for the encouragement; I learned everything I know right here on Active Rain!
