The charming 3-bedroom main home features granite counters, Cantera stone fireplaces, and knotty alder cabinetry, blending rustic elegance with modern comfort.

Bring your horses and your vision!

Supplements: This property is located in the heart of Waddell, a community that perfectly blends rural charm with modern convenience. Set against the scenic backdrop of the White Tank Mountains, it captures the best of country living open skies, mountain views, and space to live freely. While nearby cities continue to grow, Waddell remains one of the few areas in the West Valley where you can truly enjoy acreage living, privacy, and room to expand without sacrificing access to shopping, dining, and top-rated schools. Just minutes from the Loop 303, The Village at Prasada, and the thriving Goodyear and Litchfield Park corridors, this property offers both tranquility and connectivity. The irrigated acreage makes the land exceptionally valuable and functional. Irrigation provides a dedicated water supply that keeps the soil rich and the grass green year-round, creating cool, usable ground for horses, farming, or landscaping. This rare feature allows the property to support lush pasture, shade trees, and a healthy environment for animals and people alike. You can maintain grassy turnout for horses, plant gardens, or create a private retreat surrounded by mature desert landscaping. In a region where most acreage is dry and dusty, irrigated land is a true luxury. The versatility of this equestrian estate sets it apart from any other acreage for sale in the West Valley. The covered riding arena can serve as a professional training facility or be reimagined as a sports or fitness space for baseball, soccer, or private recreation. The open acreage and thoughtful layout make it ideal for a hobby farm, small business, or multi-use ranch that blends work and leisure. The guest house provides flexibility for multi-generational living, a caretaker residence, or short- or long-term rental income. Each stall can be leased individually, creating multiple revenue streams while preserving privacy and functionality. Whether you envision a horse property, an agricultural retreat, or a quiet country estate, the infrastructure is already in place to bring that vision to life. Waddell has become one of the most desirable communities in the region, known for wide-open landscapes, equestrian-friendly zoning, and a peaceful desert environment. The nearby White Tank Mountain Regional Park offers miles of hiking, horseback-riding, and mountain-biking trails, with stunning views, petroglyphs, and waterfalls that showcase the beauty of the Sonoran Desert. Families enjoy newer schools, open parks, and community amenities that keep daily life convenient and connected while maintaining the calm rhythm of the country. Imagine starting each day with the sun rising over the mountains, your horses grazing in the cool morning air, and the quiet of nature surrounding you. Afternoons can be spent training, gardening, or simply enjoying the freedom of open land. Evenings bring golden sunsets, the scent of desert rain, and a sky filled with stars. This is the kind of lifestyle many dream about but few can attain rare combination of space, serenity, and accessibility. As development continues to expand throughout the West Valley, properties with this amount of usable, irrigated acreage and infrastructure have become increasingly hard to find. This luxury ranch offers a unique opportunity to own land that not only supports your current lifestyle but can grow with your goals. Whether you are looking for a high-end equestrian facility, a multi-home family compound, a working hobby farm, or a long-term investment, this country property offers the freedom to create something lasting. With its mountain views, irrigated pastures, guest accommodations, and no HOA, it represents the best of refined rural living authentic, functional, and full of possibility. Properties like this are nearly impossible to recreate where land, design, and flexibility come together in one remarkable setting. It's more than a home; it's a rare opportunity to live freely, create fully, and enjoy a lifestyle defined by space, peace, and potential.
