Arizona creek side property, a rare find, located in the small friendly community of Bear Flats just 4 miles off Highway 260 a half an hour east of Payson. The subdivision was first platted in 1945 and is surrounded by the Tonto National Forest with Tonto Creek running down the middle. The community consists of 45 summer homes with a few hearty fulltime residents.
This well maintained 1940’s era cabin has 1st cut log slab siding, pine plank interior walls and classic flagstone fireplace. Main floor offers a living room, kitchen/dining combo and one bedroom with bath. The second floor has two guest bedrooms and a master bedroom with private bath. The walk out lower level has a game room, workshop, storage and the 3rd bathroom. Spring water piped in from the canyon tastes great and shared by 10 of the homes. The foundation is in excellent condition, in 2008 the roof was replaced and the septic updated in 2004. A large redwood deck added in 1997 shaded by trees overlooking the creek is private and provides a great place to relax or entertain friends.
Price $350,000
