I like the half acre, we wanted more but it's a good compromise of land and location.

We looked at a lot of places that had about the same size lot and it really came down to the landscaping and neighborhood. Ours feels pretty secluded because there's a lot of trees and shrubs that the neighborhood is invested in keeping. The few places that aren't covered are places we're going to put in screen plants to help promote that secluded feeling. We also have enough room for a garden, a clothes line, and a large shed. So that's nice.
