Our Future Homesite

Here is what we're looking at:

We're subdividing our family property (87 acres) and carving out about 12 acres, onto which we'll put our new home. In the satellite view below, our family property is the mostly wooded area, and the trailer we currently are living in is on the left side of the image in the middle. The pin near the center indicates where we plan on building...



There are no utilities at the site, and so we'll need to get gas, water, electric, sewage and cable there. We need cable as opposed to satellite because both of us have home offices which require a good high speed Internet connection.

There is an existing road from gas wells on the property that we plan on improving for access to our site. The property is on a hillside which overlooks a medium sized pond. Below is a view of our potential homesite from early in the spring:



We've already done some preliminary clearing away of wood as you can see.

Enough for now. Next time I'll lay out some more specifics on steps we've taken so far, and what we still need to take care of.
