A rare greenbelt property with surface (creek and irrigation) and domestic water rights! Set on 2.06 acres in gated Rio Bonito Ranch, this exceptional Modern Farmhouse offers luxe country living amid open pastures, panoramic views and the beauty of Oak Creek. The 2,941 SF home is drenched in natural light beneath soaring 18' ceilings with exposed wood beams. An 18'x44' outdoor living room is protected with remote controlled sunscreens and, in open air, this space overlooks the pastoral green landscape, while a view of the lake and a private creek beach is yours to enjoy. Miles of nearby trails invite hiking, biking and horseback riding adventures. With notable Verde Valley wineries and restaurants moments away, this is a place to slow down, breathe deeply and savor the moments that matter! Beyond the gates of Rio Bonito Ranch, life unfolds at a gentler pace. Morning walks wind through emerald pastures as deer move quietly among the cottonwoods. Residents enjoy private beaches along Oak Creek, expansive recreational areas, walking paths, paved roads, and a rare connection to the land that feels increasingly difficult to find. As evening settles in, the ponds and pastures are bathed in the colors of spectacular Verde Valley sunsets. Despite its peaceful setting, everyday conveniences remain close at hand. The acclaimed wineries of Page Springs are just minutes away, along with local favorites including Manzanita, Up The Creek Bistro, G's Burgers, Brewha, and the Windmill Park Cornville Farmer's Market. Sedona's iconic red rocks are approximately 15 miles away, while Cottonwood's vibrant Old Town, I-17, Flagstaff, and Phoenix remain easily accessible. Built in 2018, this exceptional residence blends modern farmhouse design with thoughtful craftsmanship and timeless appeal. Large-plank porcelain wood tile flooring flows throughout the residence, while vaulted ceilings, substantial wood beams, and expansive glass create an atmosphere that feels both grand and welcoming. At the heart of the home, the open-concept great room is anchored by a striking Isokern fireplace, flanked by towering built-in art niches that create both a dramatic first impression and a natural feeling of elevated living. It is hard to know where the landscape ends and the home begins. A wall of sliding glass doors opens to the lodge-style screened patio, creating a seamless transition between indoor living spaces and the natural beauty beyond. Rolling pastureland, grazing cattle, visiting wildlife, and ever-changing skies become part of the daily experience. Designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining, the chef's kitchen features a Wolf gas cooktop, double ovens, built-in refrigerator and freezer, a substantial center island, abundant cabinetry, and an attached butler's pantry offering exceptional prep space and storage. An oversized pass-through window above the farmhouse sink frames views of lush pastureland, the community pond, and distant mountain vistas while connecting seamlessly to the outdoor covered patio, complete with bar seating and a built-in granite countertop for effortless entertaining and al fresco dining. The primary suite is a true retreat, where colorful garden blooms, endless green lawn, and the community pond beyond create a serene backdrop for daily living. A cozy sitting area invites quiet mornings with a cup of coffee or afternoons spent with a favorite book. The luxurious en suite bath offers dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a multi-head walk-in shower designed for relaxation. A well-appointed walk-in closet with built-in shelving and drawers is located just across from the bath.
