The Secret to Finding Privacy in an Affluent Town

Have you noticed that it is becoming exceedingly difficult to find a home on a private lot? Builders have gotten into the habit of cutting every tree standing to make room for new construction homes and streamline the building process. While more and more home buyers are looking for seclusion,  most newer homes are built in neighborhoods where houses are so close you can see what’s on your neighbor’s dinner plate.

Towns have reduced the minimum lot size from 2 acres to 1 acre and now prefer even smaller lots, where houses are packed in close – to reduce road frontage. Less roads to maintain is less burden on the town budget. Typically these neighborhoods with 0.5 – 0.75 acre land are surrounded by open space, which is great for wild life but doesn’t help you with privacy around your home.
