All I could find is expensive online listings (Around $20K-$25K for an acre or two on average). Generally talking about land in America but I'm open to Canada or parts of Europe.

Most of the folks that bought lots and built were 50+, the working well-to-do crowd. Every house is different, built by different local contractors and the overall project reflects beatiful homes on +/-1½ acre lots in a rural New England setting. No sidewalks, no street lights (underground utilities), just incredible unobstructed big-sky water/mountain views and sunsets facing west-southwest. 50 acres of open space woods with trails, vernal pools, granite outcrops, plenty of critters, abuts 1000+ acres of woods with trails owned by others. I can also see to the Atlantic Ocean and 2 more lakes to the East from my last saved lot and from a half dozen other lots along the top of the hill. If I built and put a 2 story house on that lot with the upper floor mostly windows, I would have unobstructed elevated views to the East, South and West. The subdivision is about 90% built out now, few unbuilt lots left.

That project is the proudest achievement of my life. This is what I quit my 24 year engineering career to do. I made the right decision and it turned out better than I could have imagined, allowed me to retire at 45.
