I wanted to share with everyone my piece of heaven that I have here in upstate New York.
Size: 180 acres
Location: Van Etten, NY, Chemung county.
This property is a family "farm" that has been in our family since 1994. Before that time it was a potato farm, but it wasn't farmed since the 50's probably.
Here is a rough layout of the boundary lines.

I built a home on a adjoining parcel where I plan on retiring in 20 years. The home building process took me 6 years to complete starting from clearing the land to move in. If anybody is dreaming of building there own home like I did, all I can say is don't do it! Pay somebody to do it if you can afford to so you don't miss a few years of your life building a home. Here are some pictures of the process.
