Legal Information

 

When we speak of property we typically use an address -- 123 Main Street for instance. 

As most vacant land does not have a physical address, however, county governments will identify it in other ways, such as a "legal description", a parcel number or a tax code. The information provided in the table to the right are the ways in which the various state and county agencies will identify this specific parcel of land. These signifiers are important to have when speaking with these agencies - whether they be the assessor, the zoning office, or even the local utilities - and may prove invaluable when initiating conversations about whatever research a buyer intends to do.

Whenever one exists or has been assigned to the land, the physical address will be included in this table.

Access & Utilities

 

Roads & Access: The Angel Fire Chalets subdivision is situated just east of State Road 434. The subject property is located along El Camino Real, a graded dirt and gravel road maintained throughout the year by the Association of Angel Fire Property Owners. Because of these facts, the subdivision should be easy to access and navigate in any vehicle type. Located as it is in a higher elevation that experiences regular snowfall, however, a larger truck or off-road capable vehicle is recommended during winter months.

Power & Utilities: In the interest of preserving the natural appearance and scenic beauty of the region, the Angel Fire Chalets subdivision is one that has been created without the presence of above-ground residential power lines. Instead, all power and telecom utilities are underground. This includes at the subject property where utility boxes are present. Because of this, it should be neither difficult nor expensive to get service connected to whatever you choose to build on the land. Anyone looking to investigate the costs associated with connecting service on the subject property is encouraged to contact Kit Carson Electric Cooperative, the local utility servicing this region.

Water Service: It should be noted that well-drilling is not permitted in this region. Fortunately, the entire Angel Fire Chalets subdivision is one that has been outfitted with water lines servicing fire hydrants throughout the community. Additionally, the Association helps with getting service extended to all landowners looking to develop their property.

Zoning & Restrictions

 

Zoning: Angel Fire Chalets is zoned Residential Medium Density, a designation which permits for low density single-family housing along with customary accessory uses. To learn more about the Residential Medium Density Zoning Designation, please review the PDF linked here. 

POA: Angel Fire Chalets is one of a number of subdivisions in and around the resort governed by a Property Owner's Association (The AAFPO) which is actively involved in the community through their work in road maintenance, conservation efforts, fire prevention and upkeep of Monte Verde Lake. More than this, however, they work to build a sense of community amongst the landowners here, frequently organizing events and improvement projects. Anyone looking to learn more about the AAFPO is encouraged to review their website which can be found here.

Membership Benefits: While most POAs do little more than collect annual dues for non-descript improvement projects, the AAFPO differentiates itself not only in how active they are in the community, but in the many benefits they provide for their members. These benefits include year ‘round access to the resort, its sixty-seven ski trails, 18 Hole PGA Golf Course, tennis courts, country club as well as the Resort’s private Monte Verde Lake.

Architectural Control Committee: Angel Fire Chalets, as well as the other communities that make up the AAFPO, is defined as a "covenant and architecturally controlled community" meaning that rules exist for land use and development and those rules are enforced, most notably by the Angel Fire Environmental and Architectural Control Committee (AFECC). This Committee oversees approval and permitting for all homes built within the subdivision.

While many buyers may recoil at the suggestion of rules or governing organizations, good POAs can be a benefit to the land and homeowners in their communities as they help to beautify the region and ensure that property values increase over time. Anyone looking to learn more about the AFECC is encouraged to visit their website here.

Residential, NOT Recreational: It should be noted that land in this region is designated exclusively for residential and not recreational use. While RVs, Campers and tents may be allowed for temporary periods during construction of a permanent home site, those periods are limited and reserved only for those with pre-approved building plans.

Editor's Note: Anyone researching zoning or land use within a region governed by a Property Owner's Association should know that whenever County Zoning and POA regulations conflict, the more restrictive of the two will normally supersede the other.

Misc.

 

Topography: Despite its location in such a mountainous region, the subject property is surprisingly flat and features none of the slopes, cliffs or ridges common to this area of the state. This is a benefit to anyone looking to build their dream home as it not only allows for construction on any portion of the land but will also serve to make it more affordable to develop. 

Fire Prevention: Given its woodland location, the AAFPO is vigilant about preventing forest fires and works very hard to protect the homes and property of its residents. Because of this, fire hydrants have been installed throughout the subdivision and there are numerous prohibitions against fireworks, fire pits and other fire hazards.

Realtor: This property is also listed with New Mexico Realtor Sally A. Torres of New Mexico Mountain Properties. Anyone who would prefer to deal with her directly may contact her office at 575.758.5852 or Sally.Torres595@gmail.com.
