House distance from road

[kickinbull]

I'm curious how far everyone's house is from public road?

 

[M-5]

50' ...

 

[TexasBred]

About half a mile. Really have never measured it.

 

[Bestoutwest]

Using the odometer I'd guess about 1/3 of a mile. It's a good distance because it keeps people away and my son and dig can be out there without me worrying they'll get hit.

 

[rowdyred]

1/4 mile, measured many times just to make sure. I try to walk 2.5 -3 miles every day.

 

[Bigfoot]

200 yards. Some days wish I had built on the back of my place instead of the front.

 

[J&D Cattle]

Just shy of a quarter mile.

 

[M-5]

50' ...

that's out the front door. Out the back door as a crow flys its about 5 miles

 

[Kell-inKY]

1/4 mile and completely hidden from road thankfully

 

[Aaron]

60' or so. Majority of places are similar around here. Easier and cheaper to maintain than long driveways.

 

[Texas Gal]

just a bit over 3/10 of a mile and hidden from the road. :D

 

[pdfangus]

almost exactly 1/10 of a mile...but the house can be seen from the road....
We greet unknown visitors with a gun in hand, so we don't have many...

Not sure mine would even be 50 ft.. I'd have to measure it. Road has gotten a lot busier over the yrs. More big trucks, and a couple hundred cars an hour at times. Sometimes I wish it was quieter - but being close to town is handy at times.

A mile out back before I'd hit the next road.

My house I live in now is 400 yards off the road . The one I'm building is 75 ft off the road .

About 150 feet out the front door. Out the back it is about a mile or more but there is a creek to cross (60 feet wide and over your head deep) and a river (300 feet wide and really over your head) and then up a 200 foot tall near vertical bluff.

My wife's old ranch in Oregon the driveway was 13 miles long.

 

[herofan]

About 1 mile down a gravel road.

 

[Txpiney]

1/4 mile to public road, 5 1/2 miles to black top, 20 miles to town. Almost all the land around me is timber company, so very few people for miles

 

[cow pollinater]

I guess it depends on what you consider a road. I'm about a hundred yards from a one lane road that gets about ten cars a day, about half a mile from a paved road that gets about a hundred cars a day, and fifteen miles from anything busier than that.

Just shy of a half mile

Bout a mile from the mailbox. There's 1/4 mile of county road from the mailbox to the entrance of the ranch then 3/4 mile of windy road to the house. Completely hidden from any county roads.
