I would not want to live there.....way to close to each other.....I can only see one other house where I'm at......can't even see the street I'm so far back.
We live in the middle of 15 1/2 acres. Our house is 1000 feet from the road and I can't see anyone!

No boat, back in the suds.

Sounds perfect, although I’d miss my view of the bay.

Wow 15 1/2 acres! Thats great!
I grew up in the inner city....a tenement apartment....with ten of us in my family....and neighbors had ten kids. I was ok with it then, but as I grew to adulthood, I yearned for a place of my own with privacy and solitude. Sounds like you have an abundance of both. . Mine is only an acre and a half but surrounded by state forest. Neighbors are great when you have enough distance.

Looking out my front door

Looks wonderful. I also grew up in a little place in Greenville RI. 50X100 lot.
Bought this place in 73 so we've been here 50 years. Built a 1.5 acre pond in 76. Spring fed and I stock it. Been offered insane money but where would we go??
