Description
This gorgeous 20-acre parcel of vacant land is situated next to the I-15 freeway, less than half a mile away in Afton Canyon, within the East Mojave region. Locally known as the Grand Canyon of the East Mojave, Afton Canyon boasts dramatic geological formations and a wide range of recreational activities. Popular activities in the area include birdwatching, hiking, hunting, vehicle touring, rockhounding, horseback riding, stargazing, photography, natural history study, and camping. This land is ideal for various potential developments such as a cemetery, solar panel installation, an electric car charging station, a farm ranch, or other projects, subject to zoning permits (verify with county office). Its strategic location between the high desert and Las Vegas makes it an ideal spot for such ventures. The county planning department has indicated that establishing a cemetery on the land is possible with permits. Based on research, assuming 1 acre can accommodate 1,000 gravesites (typically between 800 and 1,200 gravesites per acre), the potential for over 5,000 gravesites could generate an estimated revenue of over $20 million. Buyers can explore other development avenues and opportunities on this versatile land. The growing population of the Inland Empire, Los Angeles County, and Orange County combined is approximately 15 million. Easily accessible from Interstate 15 by heading north on the Afton exit and driving just under half a mile on a graded dirt road to reach the vacant land property. Continuing for three miles will take you to the fully-developed Afton Campground parking area. Buyers are encouraged to conduct their own due diligence regarding zoning regulations and determining the best use of this land. The seller is open to discussions with developers, partnerships, or potential buyers for collaboration or sale arrangements. Don't miss this unique opportunity to invest in a prime piece of land with endless possibilities in the picturesque Afton Canyon area.
