We don’t get much nudist anything here in upstate NY Adam, you know that. The 
weather takes care of that most of the time….lol

 

Thank you,

So would you guys actually buy that compound? I'm trying to wrap my head around 
who would buy it and what for.

I was looking at an empty lot to be my little outdoor playground, and it has 
one of these Amish places adjacent to it.  In the back of my head I'm picturing 
some kind of weirdo cultists moving in.  Like nudist PETA eco-terrorists or  
neo-confederate klansmen.

The Amish are making a mass exodus from NY.  You can drive through Amish 
communities and see "for sale" signs one after the other.  The Amish are 
generally known for good workmanship, to the point where some people go out of 
their way to get Amish building contractors.  They also have multigenerational 
households, so you get these large properties with huge well-built houses, 
barns, and outbuildings.  The problem is they have no utilities at all.  
They'll have hand pumped wells and outhouses and wood stoves.

I linked the above example because it was easy to find, but that particular one 
has electric out by the road.  I saw a similar one for sale where there was no 
electric service available and it was listed for $140k.  That's a friggin 
'steal except for one thing:  What could you do with a huge house with no 
electricity?  A scout camp?  Start a cult?
