Rodeo Airport-437 Acres in Rodeo, NM...A Rare Residential or Commercial Opportunity: Imagine owning your own private airport sprawled across 437 acres of breathtaking New Mexico land, complete with a spacious 4bd/2ba home and stunning mountain vistas. Nestled in the tranquil San Simon Valley, this unique property offers limitless potential for residential living, commercial ventures, or a blend of both. The Home-Move-In Ready with Endless Potential: The 4bd/2ba manufactured home is a comfortable retreat for soaking in vibrant desert sunsets and sunrises. Equipped with all-metal roofing, central propane heating, and swamp coolers, it’s built for year-round comfort. A wrap-around covered porch and a generous carport and shade trees add to the ambiance. Inside, a large kitchen and abundant storage space cater to family living or entertaining guests. The home is move-in ready, though some cosmetic updates could elevate its charm to match your vision. Reliable utilities are in place, including grid-power, a professionally installed domestic well and a recently inspected septic system. The Airport-A Private Pilot’s Paradise: The Rodeo Airport is a registered private airport with the FAA (as NM70) and is shown on the Phoenix sectional. The registration can be transferred or canceled if not needed. Rodeo Airport is a cornerstone of the Rodeo community, boasting a 5600 x 100-foot illuminated gravel runway—ample for a variety of aircraft. The large airplane hangar doubles as a functional hub, with room additions for an office, storage, and workshop, all plumbed for compressed air and potable water. An automatic electric bifold door adds modern convenience, while a rotating airport beacon enhances visibility (and old-time charm). Special tie-down areas and included fuel and water tanks round out the aviation amenities, making this a dream destination for pilots or aviation hobbyists. The Land-Nature’s Canvas: Perched at 4,100 feet elevation, this property enjoys a mild year-round climate and jaw-dropping, unobstructed views of the Chiricahua Mountains rising nearly 10,000 feet to the west. The flat to gently sloped terrain is dotted with high-desert flora like cholla, creosote, mesquite, and yucca. Bordering BLM lands to the north and the NM/AZ state line to the west, the property offers a secluded feel with easy gravel road access. Set back about a mile from Old Hwy80, you’ll relish peace and quiet without sacrificing convenience. Wildlife & Recreation-A Natural Playground: Nature lovers will delight in the abundant wildlife—javelina, deer, bobcats, cougars, raptors, and more—roaming the area. The nearby Chiricahua Mountains, part of the biodiverse “Sky Island” system, host about 50% of North America’s bird species, making it a bird-watching haven. Both the forested Chiricahuas and the desert-like Peloncillo Range to the east beckon with recreational pursuits: horseback riding, mountain biking, rock climbing, remote backpacking and camping, and, of course, flying. Location-The Best of Both Worlds: Rodeo, NM, a charming old-west town steeped in cowboy and Native American history, sits just 34 miles south of Interstate 10. Nearby, Cave Creek Canyon and Portal, AZ, are a quick 12-mile jaunt, while the vibrant art hubs of Silver City, NM and Bisbee, AZ, are ~1.5 hours.
