Hello all,
So I have been pondering for a while now about building a perimeter wall around my 9 acre property. On this property there is four homes where all of my family live as we call this our Homestead. We live out in the country however we have neighbors so I wouldn’t say that were in the country secluded but we are in the country where the neighbors are few. So I have been thinking about pouring a concrete footer and installing a concrete perimeter wall.
Before all the questions come in yes I have home defenses in place. Yes I have solar powered perimeter lighting. But with that said I have livestock, gardens and our Homestead that quite frankly I would like to be not seen from passerby‘s. So I’m curious if anybody else has thought about this and wondered if the expense is worth it as I would guess if I blocked it it would be cheaper but it would take me forever pouring it would be much faster but also much more expensive. I don’t want to use a wood perimeter wall as it could be bypassed fairly simple and the maintenance would be substantially more than Concrete.
Thoughts?
