Seller motivated! Bring us an offer! This 408 sq ft homestead cabin is nested at 3500ft elevation and offers the best 360° views that the high desert has to offer. It is just far enough off the beaten path and down it's own private road to be secluded, yet a short 15 minute drive into town and the closest grocery store. It has a new metal roof, two 500 gallon water tanks and a water line to the cabin. Electricity was once present giving the cabin it's address and can be easily hooked up again with power lines directly in front. This property also features 5 acres with all 4 corners marked and a roughly 480 sq ft concrete flat for a garage. A bonus 40ft shipping container is leveled and complete with extra vents installed and a back room accessible by a man door with wood laminate flooring and fresh paint inside. Water is hauled, property taxes come with a dump card for refuse disposal. Taxes current, deed in hand. This cabin is the perfect start for a homestead or vacation home, off-roading basecamp or a valuable investment opportunity. Various wildlife passthrough occasionally making it the perfect nature retreat. Various building materials included in sale. Please visit by appointment only. This won't last long!
