Once in a lifetime opportunity to own your own completely refurbished, fully stocked General Store with attached 3 bed/1 bath home. This hilltop site sitting on 2.26 acres has expansive views of the Mogollon Rim.
Step into a truly one-of-a-kind property in Pleasant Valley where history lives & opportunity expands. Originally built in 1925 as a general store & later operating as a Union 76 station, this iconic structure has been thoughtfully preserved while integrating a newly built 3-bedroom, 1-bath addition completed in 2023. The property spans 2,471 sq ft & features fully updated commercial electrical, new insulation throughout, a new septic system, new underground water lines, & a new well house, offering modern infrastructure behind its historic walls. Inside, the kitchen is a conversation piece, anchored by a rare antique oak icebox island, a 1940s farmhouse sink, & custom cabinetry with curated lighting. The original store portion remains rich with character, with authentic early 1900s merchandise & memorabilia still lining the shelves. Two fireplaces & two living areas create flexibility for residential living, guest use, or future business concepts.
Outside, the grounds are equally compelling, featuring original 1920s gas pumps, vintage signage, antique farm equipment, & six classic vehicles, two of which are operational, all included along with furnishings for a truly turnkey experience. Additional structures include a refurbished 1908 cabin, a 1943 cabin, a 1,250 square foot rock house, a workshop, windmill, two outhouses, & four carports.
Perched at 5,200 feet & surrounded by a 5,000-acre private valley & the 3 million-acre Tonto National Forest, fronting Hwy 288, “The Desert to the Tall Pines Scenic Byway”, offers unmatched privacy, views, & potential for a boutique business, retreat, or legacy holding.
