22 miles north of Prescott in Yavapai County, Arizona sits this 42.74 acre gem where the Verde River begins. The 42.74 acre Hidden Verde property is surrounded by Arizona State Trust land and is just upstream from the Arizona Game & Fish Department's Upper Verde River Wildlife Area. On the south end of the property the Verde River, running through the petroglyph encrypted canyon walls, form what is known as Stillman Lake. On the north end of the property is a level buildable mesa overlooking the Verde River canyon below. Elevations are approximately 4, 280' along the river to 4, 480' on the mesa.

This is an extremely rare location of having the Verde River and Stillman Lake on the property for your private personal and recreational enjoyment. The property is zoned by Yavapai County RCU-2A, a residential and agriculture district with a minimum parcel size of two acres. Hidden Verde Association, Inc. is a non-profit group consisting of the parcel owners of the property which holds Right of Way No. 14-111245 from the Arizona State Land Department. The Association has CC&Rs should any of the four parcels be sold to a separate owner. With the Verde River and Stillman Lake on the property there are flooding hazards along the river bottom area. The Verde River and its tributaries provide a unique home for 60% of the vertebrates in the watershed, including river otter, bald eagle and many species of native fish. Roughly 10 percent of Arizona's remaining Fremont Cottonwood/Goodding Willow habitat, the rarest forest-type in North American, can be found along the Verde. The Verde and its tributaries, seeps and springs support an amazing diversity of wildlife; 270 species of birds, 94 species of mammals and 76 species of native amphibians and reptiles use the Verde River watershed at some point in their life cycles. Talk about true investment grade real estate here, the Hidden Verde property consists of some of the last and best private land left on the Verde River. Not to mention this is THE spot that the Verde comes to its perennial life, this is also the ONLY private property on Stillman Lake. Some of the largest and oldest petroglyphs in America are on the Hidden Verde property. Just imagine your retreat, resort, recreational ranch or several secluded custom residences here!
