My Acreage Dream Home |
Well, our current home has been on the market for just over a week now. We've had 7 showings so far without so much as a nibble. But, with so many other houses for sale in our area, I'm not the least bit surprised.
In between the never-ending cleaning and tidying, I've started searching the property listings for our next home.
We're looking for a small, private acreage (around 5 acres), close to where my husband works.
As soon as I saw this property, I fell in love! It's a little bit over our price range, but, just look at this place!
We could just move in and enjoy!
But, hubby thinks it makes more sense to buy a beautiful piece of land and start from scratch. We'd be able to create our very own version of a dream acreage, all brand new and for a lot less money.
But, it would also be a lot of work. We'd have to choose and clear the building site, create an access road and driveway, drill a well, install a septic system, build the house, add landscaping and fencing, and the list goes on...
At this point, it's anybody's guess what we'll end up doing. Which option would you choose?
