The Estate Sits on 173 Acres of Pristine Land in Arizona’s Most Beautiful City and was Formerly Owned by the Wrigley Family
Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty, Arizona’s leader in luxury real estate, is proud to announce the sale of El Rojo Grande Ranch in Sedona, Arizona.
The sale was a combination of two listings on the same property. The main residence sits on 82 acres and sold for $11,250,000 and an additional 91 acres closed for 3,500,000, totaling 173 acres and $14,750,000. The same buyer purchased the combined listings.
Agents Ed Pennington and Jeanette Sauer of Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty represented the seller, Ingrid Hills. The estate was originally built for the iconic Wrigley family and was later sold to the Hills family of Hills Bros. Coffee.
The property had been on the market since 2006 and in that time Hills received multiple offers from developers, all of which she declined. Hills wished to preserve the natural beauty of the land and Sedona.
I am so proud that we were able to procure the perfect sale where the seller, the buyer, and the community of Sedona and the surrounding areas are happy and appreciative. We feel blessed to be involved in this sale and appreciate the efforts of Roy Grimm, the local agent, who brought an incredible buyer to us. The seller did the right thing by refusing to sell to developers while waiting for the perfect buyer to come along. We, as a community, should applaud her efforts.
Ed Pennington, Real Estate Advisor
