In one of the fastest-growing towns  in the entire state of Arizona, Marana, are 540 acres (five parcels) of development land in the Tortolita Mountains, scheduled for online auction August 23 on micoley.com. The area, which is just northwest of Tucson in Fresnal Canyon, is a prime piece of territory for developers looking to add to their portfolio—it is, after all, located near the prestigious Ritz-Carlton, Dove Mountain Hotel and Golf Club, along with miles of hiking trails throughout the mountains.

Though the property is currently zoned agricultural and has a natural grazing land lease that runs through October 31, 2017, the land can be used for a luxury housing development, and features both flat and sloped terrain, opening up lots of possibilities. Phone and electric are at the lot line, and there are also two operating wells.

Residents of Marana utilize the town’s many parks and hiking trails, but the town also prides itself on being the most business-friendly community in Arizona, as well. Marana sports its own regional airport, which has helped the town cement itself as a tourist destination, too.

The 540-acre property is located in the Fresnal Canyon area on Carpenter Ranch Road (Tortolita Mountain) Marana AZ 85653. The property is listed at $2,995,000 with an opening bid of $1,395,000 if no offers are received before the auction on August 23.

Interested parties should visit micoley.com to find photos and details about this unique parcel, or visit the property in person to perform an inspection on site, which is highly recommended. 1-866-371-3619 is Micoley.com’s information line.
