Moving MossFlower to new Woods...

[PJSprog]

Looks like an opportunity rich environment, David. Should be fun to watch. As deezler noted, the place looks like it has great potential.

Good luck with your new place. I would be thinking about where I was going to place my tilt over radio tower on the new location

JAMES!!!!!

Long time no talk my friend!

Hope all is well. Someday I need to replace my canopy with one like yours, I've trashed mine...

I'm keeping the Tractor (Duh)...

That is the plan!

The reality is I LOVE the land where I live today, hate the house. I've tried to remodel it 3 times, designed 3 different houses, paid a fortune to architects, drafters, etc. Denied every time.

I've lived through the process of two divorces living here, the last one somewhat due to inability to remodel the house.

30+ minutes closer to work & way more civilization close by. Plus I believe 19.5 acres modernized closer to DC will appreciate WAY BETTER than 51 acres I cannot do anything with.

My 11.5 non-custodial daughter LOVES to swim, so a pool with a preteen/teen daughter is a huge asset.

Honestly my BFF buddy who I am buying this from pitched it to me as a great opportunity for a CHANGE...

I've decided to embrace this concept and grow & change my circumstances.

Thanks,
David

MossFlower - which county is this? Most of the (less rural) counties have aerial images available in their GIS systems - they use them for the tax appraisals.

Stafford...

This is the old Google Maps edited shot. You can see my back driveway through the trees, the house, pool, and shed locations. Most of the farmed ares is where the subdivision is, except for the largish square filed to the North, that is still mine plus more...

ColdSteelVA,


THANK YOU!!!

I have found the screen in GIS showing the AG Set Aside & subdivision Plat lines!!!

The lot line is not shown for my house, but they are all 1.5 acres so it is easy to guesstimate the trapezoid around the house!

Thanks again!
David

This is a detail on the "Screen Patio". Also brick like the house. There is a cool built in fireplace you can cook on, as well as have a fire for warmth & ambiance.

I intend to redo the screen with fewer wooden bars, possibly set up so I can install Marine Vinyl panels for winter use (TBD later, but it is on the list as possible improvements).

Be well,
David

That is a cool gathering spot with great potential. My wife's grandfather built a similar structure along side a stream behind his place. My wife has fond memories from her childhood hanging out in that screen house for family cookouts and evening fires. They'd play games inside, croquet and horsehoes outside, sled on stream banks in the winter, swim in the stream in the summer, and swing on the porch swings he put inside there all year round. That screen house and the pool could be the start of some real good memories.
