Actually that's pretty close to what we think about it. It's about 1.1 acres which means the neighbor on one side isn't too close. There's 2 empty lots on the other side which won't perc, so no one will ever build on them. We like that.

The pond was put in by the last home owner at a cost of $20K and is pretty large. It's sort of kidney shaped, and spring fed so the level stays constant. The island is about 20 feet in diameter with a bridge leading onto it. We put our glider out on the island and really enjoy sitting out there when the sun is going down.

The pool is neither real big or bery deep. It's about 10 feet wide and thirty feet long. It's only 4 feet deep which makes the Blonde happy since she isn't into deep water and has limited swimming skills. It's built in to the deck which is about 35 feet square. We also got a door from the master bedroom leading onto the deck. All-in-all we couldn't be happier if we had built it ourselves.
