Which lot to choose?

Before we decided on what development we wanted to live in, we checked out all of the available lots. We wanted something with a decent sized backyard, not extremely close to neighbors and with some privacy. Searching in the Charlotte area for something like this is...hard. And we almost didn't find it where we are building! The first time we went to the development they had no good (to us) lots available. They all backed up to a hill and had no backyard or your backyard looked into someone's windows. That's not what we were looking for. Luckily, we decided to drive back through with the Sales Rep and he told us they just released some lots the previous day. They are on a cul-de-sac and back up to woods. Umm yes!! Once we started to check out the lots; we found out all of them on the cul-de-sac needed to have a crawl space, which isn't what we wanted. But, then my husband noticed one next to the cul-de-sac and it was a slab lot! It also had a great sized yard that backed up to woods!! Jackpot! We paced it out to see how much yard we would have and it felt like the perfect amount! Enough to run around but not too much to take care of :) Bonus - there will be an easement of 20 ft on one side of us so it will be about 95-100 ft on one side before a house! Plus the lots next to us will be the last ones to sell; so our neighbors will be these huge boulders for now. Good thing they don't make too much noise ha!
