LIMITLESS DEVELOPMENT POSSIBILITIES
The ace in the hole for discerning buyers is the Property’s mixed-use zoning, the highest use zoning classification. Such rare zoning enables development, or sub-development of parts of the property in whatever ways your dreams take you: Upscale boutique hotel? Destination spa or retreat center? Restaurant, condos or casitas? World class mountain bike clinic? Equestrian ranch? Family compound?
Such zoning, plus the high percentage of buildable acreage, supports maximum flexibility in how your vision for this unique property can unfold for you or your loved ones.
Personal Sanctuary Estate
Welcome to The Ranch at Angel Fire, an ideal personal sanctuary estate to reconnect with nature, with family, with friends, and with yourself. The days bring brilliant New Mexico blue skies, the nights explode with stars, and the silence you experience on this special property is profound, magical and deeply rejuvenating. Three existing cleared building sites, with stunning sunset views of the lake and Sangre de Cristo mountains, are a natural starting place to create your haven at The Ranch at Angel Fire.
This legacy property offers the perfect palette for creative visionaries to design a family compound of clustered or graciously spaced homes, with 186 acres of private trails for hiking, biking and horseback riding.
Two year-round mountain streams offer watering holes for local wildlife, including white tail deer, mule deer, bear, mountain lions, and bobcats which grace the mountains and valleys of Angel Fire. Bird enthusiasts will appreciate the many hawks, falcons, bald eagles, golden eagles, owls, and falcons that make their home in the towering trees on the property and surrounding hills. Abundant elk herds traverse the property and are often heard bugling amongst the aspen groves in early autumn.
The property includes three lifetime memberships to Angel Fire Resort that provide access to the 18 hole championship golf course, tennis courts, mountain bike trails, summer and winter access to the ski resort, fishing at Monte Verde lake and Clubhouse facilities which include a year round indoor lap pool, spa, workout facilities, two restaurants and other resort amenities.
Literally five minutes from Angel Fire airport and the town of Angel Fire, your getaway can be fully supported by the town’s stores and restaurants.

Boutique Hotel, Residence Club & Retail Village
The Ranch at Angel Fire offers a rare development opportunity for the discerning investor. The entire 186 acre property was just granted mixed-use (highest) zoning, one of only a handful of locations with such flexible zoning within Angel Fire Resort. The property’s inherent beauty, view corridors, size, and location within the Resort support a wide range of development possibilities, including a mountaintop boutique resort and spa, retail village, and timeshare or residence club.
The Angel Fire city council is very supportive of development, and enthusiastic to work with whatever vision the Developer brings to the table.
A Ripe Market for Development. Recently named “America’s Most Affordable Ski Town” by Realtor.com and the “Last Affordable Ski Town in America” by Teton Gravity Research, this once hidden gem is starting to draw national attention with record growth and increasing property values for the village of Angel Fire.
A New York Times article highlights the virtues of Angel Fire and its strong appeal to Texan buyers: “It’s all about being in nature here,” said Jack Fuehr, a retired executive and second-home owner from Dallas who said he often spied bears and heard bugling elk from his windows. Like Mr. Fuehr, about 50 percent of Angel Fire’s second-home owners hail from the Lone Star State, giving the town the nickname of Little Texas. The area is both closer and less expensive than Colorado, and Texans remain unfazed by driving 11 hours from Dallas or 14 from Houston. It seems the secret is getting out of Texas, and Angel Fire’s star is on the rise nationally.
The fresh reboot of nearby Taos Ski Resort indicates similar development possibilities for Angel Fire.
