Congratulations! Looks beautiful with many memories to be created.

Is there zoning? If so, are you permitted multiple home sites with what appears to be minimal road frontage?
Where I live it's one home per lot with a minimum road frontage of 150 feet but things vary township to township.
 
No there are no zoning laws. This is Appalachia. We do things differently.


Funny thing when we bought our property in the same county. I called someone from the county to find out about building permits. She told me that there was no building permits or zoning unless you lived in the city or if your township required them. So I called one of the township supervisors. I asked him about building permits and he said "permits???" like I had asked it in a foreign language. That is when I knew I picked the right place. LOL.

We closed on the property Friday and started recon this weekend. We hung cams, posted signs, a gate and dumped some corn to see what's around. Tyler walked up on a flock of turkeys...30+...and saw beards on 19, they were possibly all toms. We also saw a few deer and lots of beds.
LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

My wife made her decision on where to build. Of course it’s another 500 feet of driveway. It will be on this point in some variation.
