387 W COLUMBINE Road, Payson, AZ 85541

Two-story log-sided cabin in Christopher Creek just outside Payson, Arizona. 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, loft, office, 1,869 sq ft on a wooded lot with no HOA. Most people don’t believe a place like this exists in Arizona. Towering pines, mature oaks, AZ Black Maple trees, crabapple trees, grape vines, lavenders, ferns, wildflowers, and a seasonal creek bed, all on one property. An entire ecosystem you never knew Arizona had. As soon as you pull up, winding brick pathways guide you through the yard past a decorative wooden footbridge, a porch swing under the trees, a fire pit patio, and a picnic area all shaded by a canopy so dense every season brings a completely different feel to this property. A ”Welcome” sign greets you at the covered front porch and deck where you can sit with your morning coffee and watch the elk, deer, squirrels, blue jays, turkeys, and other wildlife. Step inside and see the beautiful hardwood baseboards and trim, and the brand-new 22m Luxury Plank vinyl flooring runs throughout the main level. The living room is the heart of this home with vaulted ceilings, skylights pouring in natural light, and a wood-burning fireplace installed in 2024 that will keep you warm on those cold mountain nights. The kitchen connects right to the living and dining area with newly updated appliances that include an electric stove, built-in microwave, dishwasher, disposal, refrigerator, walk-in pantry, and additional storage under the stairs. Everything you need and nothing you don’t. Head upstairs to the master suite with a full bathroom and step out onto the balcony for tree-top views you won’t find anywhere else. Yes, this home has 2 separate decks! The loft overlooks the living room below and works perfectly as a reading nook, guest space, or second office. The separate den/office is also upstairs, giving you a quiet, dedicated workspace away from the main living areas. Tons of storage throughout the home, you won’t be left looking for space. Back on the main level, the second bedroom has easy access to the second full bathroom. Now let’s talk about the outside, because this property is something special. Brick pathways connect the covered patio, multiple seating areas, a storage shed, a bridge, and a workshop. The detached carport keeps your vehicle covered, there’s RV hookup & RV parking for your toys, and enough space to park 8 vehicles. Chain link fencing secures a majority of the perimeter. No HOA fees. Christopher Creek sits just off Highway 260 in Gila County, less than 25 minutes from downtown Payson where you’ll find shopping, dining, and everything you need. Whether you’re looking for a mountain second home, a vacation rental property, or a permanent residence, this home in the pines is the one you’ve been searching for!
