Executive Summary
The sale conveys the land, all entitlements and vested rights under the Development Agreement, and 297 acre-feet of senior-priority (1934 and older) water rights through the Central Iron County Water Conservancy District — the scarcest input for development in this corridor. Water delivery is already engineered: a 2025 design lays out approximately 13,100 linear feet of 18-inch transmission main tying into an existing CICWCD well with reported surplus capacity, two candidate gravity tank sites, an existing on-site well, and an identified secondary well site. A special service district framework is in place to support buildout.
The current engineered site plan (Go Civil Engineering, 2025) delivers 178 designed homesites in the initial phases, ranging from roughly one-third acre to 2.4 acres, with the balance of the 547-unit entitlement carried in large future development parcels — giving a buyer a phased path from near-term lot delivery to full master-plan buildout. The next milestone is the grading plan.
The approved program spans estate lots, single-family, and townhome districts, plus a 12-acre village center entitled for 40,000 SF of retail and 80 hotel keys. Planned amenities include a 10-acre lake with lakeshore clubhouse, an event center with pools and courts, equestrian stables and barn with direct BLM trail access, and more than 8 miles of internal trails — all with protected, panoramic views of the Kolob Canyons district of Zion National Park. Highway access is designed with two Hwy 144 access points and UDOT-coordinated acceleration/deceleration lanes. The site lies outside the Utah Prairie Dog clearance area, and preliminary geotechnical work is complete.
Positioned one mile west of I-15 between two of the fastest-growing markets in America — 20 minutes to Cedar City and 40 minutes to St. George — the site sits in a corridor where demand has never been the constraint; water and entitlement have been. This offering solves both. Iron and Washington Counties grew more than 34% from 2010 to 2020, with 27,000 additional households projected by 2035, and roughly 60% of recent product in northern Washington County has priced above $700,000.
Offered at $25,000,000 — approximately $45,700 per entitled unit. Full due diligence package including the recorded Development Agreement, current site plan, water transmission design, will-serve letters, geotechnical report, and market study available upon execution of a confidentiality agreement.

Description
New Harmony Ranch comprises ±465.61 acres (per county records) across four parcels at the southern gateway of Iron County, Utah, fronting Highway 144 approximately one mile west of the Interstate 15 interchange. The property sits in the community of New Harmony at the base of the Kolob Canyons district of Zion National Park, with protected, panoramic red rock views and direct connectivity to BLM land and county trail networks. Kanarra Creek and natural drainage corridors cross the site, and topography ranges from open, gently sloped valley floor suitable for near-term development to elevated benches suited for view lots. The land is zoned SPA (Specially Planned Area) under Iron County's Tier III New Village designation, with a 2024 Development Agreement vesting 547 residential units across five districts: single-family medium density (243 units on 100 acres), single-family low density (107 units on 83 acres), estate lots (15 units on 27 acres), and townhomes (102 units on 14 acres), plus a 12-acre village center carrying commercial entitlement for 40,000 SF of retail and 80 hotel/residential keys. More than 140 acres are designated open space, anchored by a planned 10-acre lake, 2-acre pond, connected stream, parks, and over 8 miles of trails. Additional master-planned components include a 12-acre amenity and event center, a 3-acre lakeshore clubhouse site, and an 8-acre equestrian stables and barn facility with direct trail access. Infrastructure is well advanced for raw land: 297 acre-feet of senior-priority (1934 and older) water rights are secured through the Central Iron County Water Conservancy District, with a 2025-engineered water delivery plan comprising approximately 13,100 linear feet of 18-inch transmission main from an existing CICWCD well with reported surplus capacity, two candidate gravity tank sites, an existing on-site well, and an identified secondary well site. A special service district has been established, an on-site fire station and wastewater treatment site are designated, and will-serve frameworks are in place for fire, police, and school services. Two Highway 144 access points are designed with UDOT-coordinated acceleration and deceleration lanes and 1,000+ feet of sight distance. The site lies outside the Utah Prairie Dog clearance area, requiring no survey, and preliminary geotechnical investigation is complete. The current engineered site plan (Go Civil Engineering, 2025) delivers 178 designed homesites ranging from roughly one-third acre to 2.4 acres, with the balance of the entitlement carried in large future development parcels. Located 20 minutes from Cedar City and 40 minutes from St. George, the property occupies one of the last entitled, water-secured positions in the fastest-growing corridor in Utah.
