I know! We were surveying down one side of our current lot when one of our neighbors struck up a conversation, during which he said he'd owned his place for 2 years and had never been all the way to the back. How do you know where to build if you don't know what you have?
I own two properties and I'm semi-embarassed to say I haven't been to the back of either one of them [V]
When your 2.5 acre property is only about 125 feet wide, you start at the street and go back as far as you can afford to pay for electric poles, and then you stop and build. Everything else behind the house is buffer.
