Step into a timeless era by seizing the chance to own a slice of Western history in Oracle, Arizona - a town steeped in the echoes of the gold and silver mining boom. This distinctive property, named High Jinks, stands proudly along the Arizona Trail, providing shade and respite to the myriad of travelers who pass through. Graced with rustic elegance, High Jinks holds the esteemed title of a National Historical Site, its very soil once touched by the legendary Buffalo Bill Cody during his mining exploits.
Nestled within the embrace of the Coronado National Forest and serving as the gateway to Mount Lemmon, this property offers unparalleled privacy and panoramic vistas that stretch across the expansive landscape. The main residence is a three-story structure with a Crows Nest on the top floor, offering a nearly 360-degree view of the Arizona Trail and National Forest, accompanied by a cozy bedroom and bathroom. The main floor exudes charm with its rustic construction, featuring a library, dining room, kitchen, den, two bedrooms, and one and a half baths. The ground floor unveils an apartment with a modern flair, with two bedrooms and one bath, and ample windows that frame breathtaking sunrises and sunsets.
Savor the evenings on the outdoor patio of Higher Jinks - a perfect setting for BBQs, wine tastings, and endless possibilities as you unwind on this sprawling estate. In addition to the main residence, multiple ensuite dwellings beckon, offering the potential for income generation through platforms such as Hipcamp or Airbnb.
Embrace the role of a historical custodian, preserving the rich tapestry of the past while opening its chapters to others for generations to come. The legacy of High Jinks awaits its next steward, ready to share the tales of Oracle's vibrant Western history with those who choose to call this unique property home.
