Significant Listing: ~20 Acres of Paradise Valley

Huge Swath of Rare Paradise Valley Land Comes Onto Market

For $28 million you can own a very large piece of paradise.

A 19.32-acre swath of Paradise Valley land at the base of Mummy Mountain is now on the market. Owners can either build a massive estate, a gated subdivision with views or custom homes – with 841,669 square feet the options are plentiful.

Located on 8039 N Coconino Road, the property comprises four contiguous separate lots – on the East side of Coconino Rd, just south of Mockingbird – being sold together.

It is the largest vacant, flat residential piece of land still available in the entire town of Paradise Valley.

“It’s extremely rare that this kind of land in this kind of location becomes available,” said  listing agent Rusty Davis. “Having football fields worth of land at the base of a mountain is an amazing opportunity for potential estate builders or developers.”
