Isn't now is the time to unwind and spend quiet moments with your loved ones on this, beautiful, fertile land near Willcox, Arizona. Situated just 4 miles north of the primary winter roosting location of the sandhill cranes. Start living your dreams on this private 7 acre parcel.
The best part, is that this parcel is in a great location amongst a pretty scarcely populated subdivision right off of Highway 191, only a few miles from I-10. The lot itself sits across the street from one of the nicest homes in the area, There are two routes of access. The simplest is to turn East on Calle Connecticut from 191 and head down until it ends. The lot is on the left. On a map, the road looks like it continues through to Calle California, but it doesnt at this time.

Theres great all year round weather here, and its close to the cities of Wilcox and Benson. This area is famous for its fertile land located in the shadow of the Dragoon Mountains where the famous Cochise Stronghold once stood. Most of this area is farmland although there are a few cattle ranches. To the west there are great mountain views which are best seen at sunset.
The cultural history of the area is rich, as it has been inhabited for thousands of years by native american populations. Some of the more dramatic and intriguing events, places and characters in the history of the Old West are all nearby, including the infamous Apache Wars, Cochise, Geronimo, Tombstone, Wyatt Earp, Doc Holiday, and more. Theres also the National Historic site of Fort Bowie, which is located across the valley in the foot hills of the Chiracahua range.
