The Only Stick-Frame Single-Family Home Under $500K in Flagstaff: 1-Acre Timberline Gem Near Trails & Town

2 BD | 1 BA | $490,000

In today’s competitive Flagstaff real estate market, opportunities under $500,000 are becoming increasingly rare — especially for stick-frame, single-family homes with land. That’s what makes this Timberline property truly exceptional.

At the time of listing, this is the only stick-frame built single-family home currently available in Flagstaff under $500K. For buyers seeking long-term value, traditional construction, and room to grow, this home stands alone in today’s market.

🏡 A Classic Flagstaff Home on a Full Acre

Located in the heart of Timberline, this cozy 2-bedroom, 1-bath single-family residence offers 874 square feet of comfortable, efficient living space on a full 1-acre lot — a combination that’s increasingly hard to find at this price point.

Inside, the home features:

A welcoming living room, kitchen, and dining area with a functional layout
Natural light and a warm, inviting feel
A footprint that’s easy to maintain while offering future flexibility

Outside, the expansive lot opens the door to endless possibilities — whether that’s outdoor living, gardening, future expansion, or simply enjoying the space and privacy that Northern Arizona buyers crave.

🌲 Privacy, Trees, and Mountain Air — Without Isolation

Surrounded by mature trees and crisp mountain air, this property delivers the peace of Flagstaff living while keeping daily conveniences close at hand. You’re just minutes from:

Restaurants, shopping, and a nearby movie theater
Downtown Flagstaff and Northern Arizona University
Arizona Snowbowl
Forest roads and year-round outdoor recreation

This balance of privacy and accessibility is one of Timberline’s most desirable features — tucked away from heavy traffic, yet connected to everything that matters.

🥾 A Dream Location for Outdoor Enthusiasts

For those who love the outdoors, this home serves as an ideal basecamp. Hiking and biking trails toward the San Francisco Peaks are less than a mile away, offering:

Trail running and mountain biking in warmer months
Snowshoeing and cross-country skiing in winter
Easy access to some of Northern Arizona’s most scenic terrain

Living here means your lifestyle doesn’t require planning — it starts right outside your door.

💡 Why Stick-Frame Construction Matters

Not all homes under $500K are created equal. Stick-frame construction is often preferred by:

Lenders and appraisers
Buyers seeking long-term durability
Homeowners planning future improvements or expansions

In a market where many lower-priced options involve alternative construction types, this home offers traditional build quality — a key differentiator that protects value and financing flexibility.

📈 A Rare Opportunity in Today’s Flagstaff Market

Whether you’re looking for:

A primary residence
A mountain retreat
Or an investment opportunity

This Timberline home checks boxes that few properties can — price, land, location, lifestyle, and construction type — all in one offering.

With inventory tight and affordability becoming more challenging in Flagstaff, opportunities like this don’t come around often.
