>>1606993>>1607026OP, Here. I cannot believe you maniacs are still arguing among yourselves in this old thread. /Out/ is a slow board, I guess.
I literally couldn't care less about your advice anymore, but I'm happy to add some more details, so you can argue yourselves to death over this.
>Purchase Price: $330,000>1-acre level and clear site>3 acres of high desert forest>$1.2m home to the west>24-acre park to the east>power/water/sewer/garbage--within city limits in the heart of a city of 400,000>90 feet of deep-water river access>trail is not an easement, and the city is fine with me walling it off>users don't litter, and the forested ravine is steep and denseThose of you quibbling over the cost per linear-foot for fencing or telling me to drop a shipping container on it are worried about your money, not mine.
The PLAN, if you care is now
Phase I
>leave the trail alone>build 3,096sqft LEED v4 main house facing south at the edge of the bluff, overlooking the river>build 1,409sqft accessory dwelling unit closer to the road for guests and rental revenue>xeriscape and re-tree build site(Prior to Phase II, allow the city to complete its parks department refresh on the park. I'm on the board, so I'll definitely point out that that little knuckle of the trail will have to be re-routed)
Phase II
>build 50 feet of high-water dock with 20 feet of floating dock>build 318sqft boat house on the water>build staggered decks and stairs from the main house deck down to the dock>build 3 staggered decks and trails/stairs down to boathouse and docksThanks for your help, /out/!
