Property Description
The ranch is extremely well watered, equipped with 12 registered wells, 7 solar pumps, 4 windmills 4 dirt tanks, pipeline & numerous drinkers are strategically placed throughout the ranch ensuring cattle have water available every quarter mile.
Unlike most high desert areas, the Double U Ranch contains a vast amount of sandy loam soil crisscrossing throughout the property, aiding the lush natural growth of nutritious grasses and brush, with mesquite trees, cottonwood and even some black walnut trees brought in by the original homesteaders! This healthy vegetation and rainfall have historically supported the strong AU numbers. You will never grow tired of the views. They are incredible in every direction and from every location and season on the ranch.
The annual climate is very mild and comfortable. The winter days are in the low 60's and nights average 36 degrees. Summer days average 90 and nights in the mid 60's. The annual precipitation is 14 to 15 inches.
Located at the southern tip of the scenic Dragoon Mountain range, the rolling topography ranges from 4,500' and rising to 5,280' atop Hay Mountain. There is an old signal beacon located on top due to the expansive 360 degree views. There is also an old historic stagecoach stop located on the ranch.
The ranch is home to abundant and diverse wildlife, including Mule Deer, White Tail Deer, Javelina, Coyote, Foxes, Cottontail and Jackrabbit, Mountain Lion and Bobcat. Bird species such as Hawks, Falcons, Roadrunners, Eagles, Ducks, and White-Faced Ibis also inhabit the area. You will also find Dove and remarkably this area has all three Arizona Quail species - Gambel, Scaled and Mearns Quail.
The ranch fencing and cross fencing is good with numerous pastures. The perimeter gates are locked by the owners and the interior roads are private. This has many positive benefits for day-to-day ranch efficiency and creates a private game refuge where the hunting is excellent and trophy bucks are common.
Improvements on the ranch include a historic 1,847 sq ft, 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom house with a covered front patio. Additional structures comprise a separate bunkhouse currently used for laundry and storage, stock pens adjacent to a large 20 x 60-foot quonset building with a concrete floor, a 20 x 20-foot tack room, a machine shop, and a hay barn. Steel-piped pens and wood corrals surround a large squeeze chute and calf table, along with a 10 x 12-foot cattle scale and loading chute. Electric power lines and a propane tank supply the headquarters, pens, and quonset building. The ranch is offered with the equipment available separately through a private treaty.
There is so much potential at the Double U Ranch.
The ranch is free of any Conservation Easements making it even more rare on a ranch of this great size in today's market. However, it remains an option for the new owner to place a Conservation Easement on the ranch or even part of it. The new owner could create this easement which may create substantial tax benefits for the new owner. Please check with your CPA or tax attorney for verification and details.
The buyer also has another angle here. Due to all of its positive attributes already mentioned especially the beauty, water availability, access and location close to Tucson and Phoenix; it is a prime candidate for a subdivision.
With its dramatic beauty, diversity of the land, strong vegetation, stunning views, great access, historic location, mild annual climate, excellent carrying capacity and very attractive price make this ranch hard to pass on. You will be very hard pressed to find a better working cattle ranch on the market anywhere in Arizona today. Come visit and make this legacy ranch yours.
