1144 Christopher Creek Loop, Payson, AZ 85541

TWO HOMES on 2+ acres of tall pines, & National Forest on 2 sides (303-10-107A and 107B)! Extraordinary property, appraised for $650k on 10/2024 - a rare opportunity for a sweet get-away in all four seasons, as a break from summer heat, or as a fantastic rental property. Classic mountain cabin + guest cottage are located right on the loop, less than 2 miles on the adjacent forest road up to the spring-fed headwaters! It's a gorgeous area for hiking, picnicking, & fishing (seasonal bi-weekly stocking of the Creek w/trout,etc). Unique main home has a master bedroom with an amazing view from the balcony, as well as an add'l loft bedroom. Open style floorplan, with oak floors & large windows on three sides for plenty of natural light; there's a woodstove to cozy up to on cool evenings. CLICK Main cabin features a custom bath with stone and glass brick walls & loads of storage; separate laundry room. Kitchen has an island with granite countertops, & the large decks (over 700 s.f.) in front & back offer the perfect setting for relaxation, entertaining, and watching the wildlife that meander through. Darling studio-style cottage provides additional space for overflow, guests, or tenants, complete with its own kitchenette and a bath with shower. This property is on a shared well, with this 2.04 acre listing owning 2 of the 3 shares; also, the owner of the 3rd share has drilled his own well and has never hooked into this well, although still possesses that right. Also please note that the two parcels are owned by two different 'entities', although Mr. Deming is the signer for both... so discuss this item with your agent to clarify. I do know at least one loan officer that has cleared it with his underwriter, and there may be many others. It's a rare opportunity to enjoy a secluded but conveniently located piece of paradise, right in the middle of the most beautiful forest in Arizona, with unparalleled opportunities for hiking, camping, fishing, stargazing, and more. Treat yourself to a beautiful drive, and come check it out! Seller and listing agents are related by marriage.
