1170 US Highway 70 West

Twenty acre tract of undeveloped land, just north of US Highway 70 West, within the Alamogordo City Limits and on the way to Holloman Air Force Base and the Army’s White Sands Missile Range. All utilities are installed along the highway, so this property has direct access to City water, City sewer, PNM electric, natural gas and telephone lines. This property is currently zoned R-1 Single Family. It is adjacent to C-3 Commercial and M-1 Light Industrial zoned properties, so rezoning to desired compatible use should be easily achievable with the submittal of a proper rezoning application with the City of Alamogordo. The rezoning process generally takes 90 to 120 days to complete and would be a process initiated, completed and paid for by the Purchaser, with full cooperation of the Seller. This property has Otero County Assessor ID Number R010048. Seller will consider division and sale of smaller tract. The topography of this overall tract is flat with a slight slope to the southwest, allowing ideal sewer flow to the sewer main along the highway. Amber Skies Mobil Home Park, a popular, well-maintained mobile home part for senior citizens, is located west of this property. Desert Paradise Mobil Home Park, a smaller, similarly-configured tract, to the east of this property, visible in the aerial photo, has been developed as a mobile home/RV park.

This property is accessed by a recorded easement that provides ingress, egress and utility access to US Highway 70 West, and is depicted in the aerial photo.

This property is on the way to Holloman Air Force Base, Alamogordo’s and Otero County’s number one source of employment and southern New Mexico’s primary “industry”. Traffic to and from Holloman is continuous, with significant trucking traffic as well.

White Sands Missile Range, the US Army’s largest real estate asset in the continental US, is located just west of Holloman, and is dedicated to weapons systems test and evaluation as well as troop training.

White Sands National Park, a magnificent system of pristine white sand dunes, just 12 miles west of Alamogordo, is visited by over 600,000 tourists per year.

This tourist traffic, and the traffic to and from Holloman Air Force Base and White Sands Missile Range, add significantly to the value US Highway 70 offers adjoining properties.
