With the vast and far-reaching development that has been underway in the state of Arizona for the past two decades there are fewer and fewer locations to settle down without feeling the crush of a sprawling metropolis. For those newcomers and native Phoenicians that are looking for a happy medium, one that blends city-style conveniences with idyllic countryside and wide open spaces, the search can, at times, feel futile. The historic town of Florence is, for all purposes, truly a diamond in the rough. Sitting in the direct cross-hairs between the two largest cities in the state, Florence is equidistant to both Tucson and Phoenix, approximately 45 minutes in each direction. Therefore, for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of busy city life, yet not wander too far out of reach, Florence is ideal. At an upgraded elevation of 1493 feet, the temperatures are slightly cooler here. Florence has been the county seat for Pinal County since 1875, and is the sixth oldest European settlement in Arizona. Florence fluidly combines the flavor of the Old West with new growth, as the business district remains on Main Street, and downtown is not very different from how it was in the 1880's. New growth is sprouting up in many areas, from the new Del Webb master-planned community to new restaurants and business opportunities, all without losing the unique Florence flair. This plot of land sprawls over 3 beautiful acres, allowing for enough room to build a dream home and then some! Any installation imaginable is possible, and there is plenty of space to include horse corrals, and arena, and other amenities you would never be able to have in the larger cities. The price is unbeatable, and one of the best investments one could possibly make. The land can be split however, if you do not need all that space. Qualified buyers call to schedule an appointment. |
