1810 E Donner Trail, Cottonwood, AZ 86326

The first thing you'll notice is the view. Mingus Mountain, the Sedona red rocks, and wide open sky, all from a big shaded deck, on a quarter acre, fully fenced backyard, and room for the RV or the projects. Inside, the split floor plan gives you a primary suite on its own side, with the two other bedrooms tucked away on the other.

The kitchen features knotty alder cabinets, granite counters, and stainless appliances. The living room, deck, and garage are wired for surround sound. Downstairs there's a bonus room with its own entrance, easy to turn into an office, a studio, a workout space, or simply the place where everything else goes. The roof, HVAC, flooring, and bathrooms have all been updated. Old Town Cottonwood is nine minutes away and Sedona is just twenty.
