Remarks
The Bar Boot Ranch is a property that is rarely found on the market in Arizona. The private land is well blocked and its strategic location in the valley insures privacy and the ability to control access throughout the ranch and neighboring National Forest. The entire eastern boundary of the private land abuts the Coronado National Forest and the beautiful Chiricahua Mountains. The property also provides the opportunity for a substantial income tax reduction through the use of conservation easements. By placing a conservation easement upon the private land, the purchaser could insure the lasting protection of this unique property while deriving a substantial charitable gift deduction.
