.29 acres is actually (in my opinion, anyway) a fair sized lot. It's 12,632.4 square feet. For reference, the lot that I had in the city I used to live in was 25 feet by 125 feet, 3125 square feet. My current lot is 62.5x100, 6,250 square feet. So, Jim, you've got a lot about double the size of my current lot, on which I have a large yard, 750 square foot house, and I'm pretty sure I could fit a 20x20 garage on it without too much trouble, up in the back corner..29 acres is correct. Just over a 1/4 acre. Building sits on the corner of it. I only want a small 2-bedroom.
Not likely, at least not for buildings or pools. He's probably looking at closer to 6,000 square feet of usable space. Especially since it's a corner lot.You have 11,000 square feet left for your house and a nice yard, with a nice sized deck, driveway, some flower gardens, a gazebo, swimming pool, fire pit........

Jim, as a Licensed Surveyor, I strongly recommend making a current survey part of your due diligence in any property you buy, There can always be hidden easements and other things that can affect your usage of the property. Also make sure you have full knowledge of any restrictive covenants and other documents that affect and control usage. Rural properties are generally only bound by restrictions from the county level, but suburban and urban properties may be bound at the County, City and even local neighborhood levels.
I've attached a drawing of a "typical" corner lot in my area, complete with building setbacks. Obviously, the lot you're looking at may be configured completely different and subject to different setbacks or easements, but this should give you an idea.
Post a link... We’ll all make lower offers to make yours look better.Apparently the seller didn't like the offer I made on the property yesterday. We never got any type of response.
