2.59 acres, I have an offer in on the 2.58 acres in front of me but they haven't accepted it yet. If I get it I will make it a rental until it is paid than clear it off and have over 5 acres.

Sweet deal. Nice Garage start. Are you going to install some supplemental heat to compensate for the doors in winter.

A good unit heater for the quick heat works well to compensate untill the floor slab can rewarm the air.
