More homebuyers are embracing hobby ranches and farms for their unique ability to boost mental well-being, extend lifespans, and foster a deeper connection with nature—all against a backdrop of breathtaking views. “This lifestyle means after a long day of work, knowing you are coming home to gorgeous sunsets, fresh air, mountainous landscapes, incredible swimming holes, space, privacy and access to nature at your fingertips,” shares Georgie Haug, Real Estate Agent at Belle Property. Despite the plethora of benefits homebuyers must still make sure they are making the right decision. "It is very important for a family from a city, who wishes to move to a larger land, to be sure that their lifestyle matches that of ranch living," said Krista Coleman, partner and luxury realtor with Coleman Real Estate at Amherst Madison. "If they tend to work, play and eat in the city or suburbs, they likely will not have the satisfaction of living the ranch lifestyle, which is all about being one with the land and really enjoying it."

“Luxury homes are discretionary, and what one consumer deems a luxury, others take for granted as an essential to their daily lives," writes Paul Boomsma, President and CEO of Leading Real Estate Companies of the World & Luxury Portfolio. "Indulgence, by definition, is something you enjoy that may result in a negative consequence – which, in the world of luxury real estate, has historically included a lack of sustainability.” However there are changes being made. Mr. Boomsma highlights significant strides in the industry, citing Soneva, a developer of luxury resorts and residences in the Maldives and Thailand. Soneva’s initiatives—ranging from sustainable building materials to clean water projects, marine conservation, and mangrove and forest restoration—are paving the way for zero-waste communities.
