I think you will like Wisconsin Gene, if that's where you end up.
If you don't mind fairly snowy, cold winters, it's a nice place to live.

A nice wood burning fireplace would help.

Yes it does, nothing like looking out at a pretty snowfall with a fire crackling nearby.

Fortunately you are perfect for living in the snow country. Being retired, if it’s too stormy to go out…….just stay in and keep the fire burning. :D

I told my agent I want to live in a county of 20 per sq mi but be no more than 15 minutes away from a hot cup of coffee on a cold winter morning.

A buyer and I have agreed to sales terms on my house and we will sign papers next week. Then if all the stars align in 4 to 6 weeks I’ll have the funds to purchase what I really want.

In the meantime it’s look look look.

This is what I’m finding in Wisconsin. This picture shows about two acres of the 11.25 that comes with the house.

The small blue circle in the upper right shows the full property. It includes all of the brown field.

If you match the plus sign up to the picture above it will cover the large blue circle.

The house is 4.2 miles from Uncommon Ground which is a latte stand in town. This property is in a county with 29 people per square mile yet is not remote.

https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/N415 ... 0092_zpid/

What I like about the land is it slopes away to the south and east allowing morning sunshine. The deck faces southeast. The brown field which looks to be idle would make a great gun course. I saw one listing that had a paintball course on a few acres.

The house is low maintenance with no outbuildings. Everything I have will fit in a three car garage. Just like it does now. It is slightly larger at 2880 sf and has 15 times the land. All for forty cents on the dollar. My house and property would only fetch $350K in Wisconsin.

Gene,
That is a great place. Lot's of good space on both levels. Beautiful property to enjoy. Looks like a really good spot.
Congrats on having your current place close to go.
