Lost me at $10,000 per acre.
What is the climate like and topography? I am still researching a future "Tin Hat House" location.Land around BOL1 and BOL2 is around $2500-$3500 per acre with prime hunting areas costing the most.
When we were looking for land for BOL2 we had an opportunity to buy a working corn farm with structurally solid 2 story house and a half mile of riverfront for $2500 an acre in Pittsylvania County Virginia. It just wasn't as good a fit as the place we bought. We looked at several places in Pittsylvania County, all remote with riverfront, all less than $3500 an acre, but we liked the place we ended up buying better.
A 345 acre mostly wooded farm in Pittsylvania County is under contract right now for $1500 an acre. Pittsylvania County is about as deep red as it gets anywhere in the US, and has one of the lowest crime rates in the US.

I don't understand - Is the place 5 miles away a retreat you already have or a place you plan to purchase ?3W’s. Water, Woods, Where am I? for tin hat house.
My next step has these 5 miles away.
We bought a place near a small town (9000) for retirement. Easier if it was either of us. (Or not having me). Have a 3 year plan to be there. This place takes both of us financially and physically, even though it is ideal.I don't understand - Is the place 5 miles away a retreat you already have or a place you plan to purchase ?
Topography is ridges and hollows near the rivers and rolling hills away from the rivers. It is basically the foothills of the Appalachians.What is the climate like and topography? I am still researching a future "Tin Hat House" location.
Thank you Dr.Henley. This location is sounding very promising. I will start researching more specifics on this area.Topography is ridges and hollows near the rivers and rolling hills away from the rivers. It is basically the foothills of the Appalachians.
What the following doesn't tell you is that summer nights are cool and dry (<70 and low humidity) and winter days are relatively mild (rarely has winter daytime highs below freezing) View attachment 22087
Even though this property is a couple thousand feet lower in elevation, it still gets a fair amount of snow and blowing snow. Many times it's a lot colder down there than our place is too.Sounds like one great deal to me! Stay there in the winter!
