100 Acres Where You Live, How Much
Just property
This does not include cities I mean in NYC 100 acres would be billions of dollars, im talking country places |
My parents are selling 17 prime acres in Carmel Valley, CA with a 8000+ square foot house for $6.25 million.
|
how much is it in square meters?
|
|
my dad owns 50 acres of land in Alberta, Canada (out in the country). it's pretty cheap - i think around 3000/acre. completely undeveloped though.

Nice booming cities 35 minutes from the cities is where people are thinking about as far as they would like to go. That goes for $110,000 an acre decent home $250,000.
Nice home $400,000+ get out about 10-15 minutes and the land is maybe $70,000 an acre. Another 10-15 minutes out probably $40,000 an acre those are rough numbers. |
I've got a 3300sq foot house, enclosed swimming pool, 40 acres, one 2400sq foot shop, a 1200sq foot store front, and a quater mile of hiway frontage thats sitting on a private lake in Texas that I have a contract on for $225k. Its just 3 miles outside of Tyler which is a town of about 90k population. Dallas is 90 miles west and Shreveport is 90 miles east.
It was a cool place but still needed some work, and the upkeep on 40 acres was killing me.... I hate driving a tractor, plus I never used the land for anything. One day I said fuckit, and bought a place in Las Vegas, and just left the house in Texas sitting there. The first guy that the real estate agent showed it to, put a deposit on it... deal is supposed to close on the 25th. |

lots of properties in teh 3 to 10 million or more range around here just for the land |
undeveloped?
10-15mil. |
I live in the upper class burbs... a cool few hun mill.
|
In Florida, you can find 100 acres for $500k, that's pretty far out. Where we are $500K will buy 2.5 acres and a nice house.
|
I would imagine that 100 acres of undeveloped Sussex forest within 30 minutes drive of my house would cost around £500,000. Its a bit of a guess but pretty close I think. A bit further east and you could probably double that price as you'd be in Paul McCartney's back yard.
|
You can find some ranches in that size range in Florida for about 1/2 a mil way out in the boondock agricultural areas.
South Florida forget about it. Myself and a group of friends bid on a 7 acre property last year for investment purposes but got outbid on it. I've never gone over 3 acres. 1 acre is more than plenty. 100 acres is a lot of ground to manage if it has estate style landscaping. I have a family friend in Philadelphia with a huge 500 acre estate. The thing is unreal. You could get lost on the trails near his lakes. The main house is spooky looking. It has that old aristocratic gothic castle look like you see in England's manors. |
undeveloped? not around here, unless you can buy part of the Pacific Ocean
|
100 acres = 1000 to 20k per acre in WV
Hey Biz, wait until I get my license to sell I hook you up he he |
I believe that you can get acreage around here for about $200/acre.
|
At some towns in Saskatchewan they will give you land for free if you agree to live on it.

IM in north FL and about 30 miles out of gainesville. I have 10 acres and buying 200 more behind where I am right now..
The property is going for about 2000 to 3500 per acre depending on if it is cleared or not. Just keep onething in mind. INTERNET CONNECTION!!! I DO NOT have dsl, cable. Neither are available in my area for at least another 5 years. Thats what they tell us. We do have satellite, and my dial up is faster. |
My 5 acres was $95,000 just a few months ago. Plan to build in the next year or two. Not a bad price for just 25 miles South of Downtown Atlanta.
|
just a guess
Manhattan Beach.....100 acres = 100 million $$$ |
I bought 900 acres last month.. just splitting it up. Varies a lot depending on "views" blah... from around $4900 to $30K+ an acre.
This is undeveloped land.. but much more and needs preserving. We have three kinds of monkeys, parrots and tucans and... well loads of wildlife and three endangered species. A few minutes away and you have "desert island" beach with palms blah. This is in a bay with almost no "humans" in sight. Plots adjacent to the land are on the market at around $70K/hectare and up to $1.5mill/hect for beachfront. Next year we are constucting a "community complex" with stuff like an eco lodge, homes, hotel etc. |

Not sure, but 100 acres would about be most of the city. |
I bought 8 acres last year for $55,000 Canadian, and that had a large pond and a small hunting shack with a wood stove on it already.

Not possible.

good thing you ruled out cities...in London 100 inches would cost you atleast one body part
|
We had a boarding school close down after more than 100 years here -- they got about 110 million for 40 acres.
That's about it for whats left in town -- you could go way out and buy some desert for very little. Teardowns go anywhere from 200 to 1.5 million around here. |

I bought 40 acres of land in Oklahoma for 800 per acre. Still have it.
10 acres outside of Lawrence KS for 1200/acre. Sold it for 1800/per. And was looking at land in Jackson Hole WY, that was out of my range @ 34k/acre. |
Approximately $78,000 Canadian, with the house... It looks like this: Nice trees. :thumbsup |
