I couldn't tell you what to do with it but if I move to europe I will work on your commune and help with whatever as long as you'll have me lol

25 decares is a lot of land, you could have an entire city there. If the land is viable for farming you could allot enough of it to produce whatever you would need to sustain the population of the property, and have the rest of the place developed into living spaces and recreational areas like you said. A sports park, little golf course, botanical gardens, animal sanctuaries. Thats stuff for citizens to do besides meditate.

I mean, this is a real opportunity to create generational prosperity not just for you but for everyone who is involved in building it up. I hope that, whatever happens, you keep it safe from people who would see it turned into more wealthy suburbs or a cash crop operation that kills the soil in a generation.

Good luck to you on your journey and, again, I'd be thrilled to be a part of it

I thought you bought a picture at first

Any zoning issues? May be worth splitting it up, lease some for farming for now, set up a couple of acres for a small utility/living area so you can visit and stay for short periods or permanently so you can get a sense of actually being there... Seasons, smells, sounds, wildlife, infrastructure like roads will all impact what the experience or opportunities actually are and often bday depending on the time of year.

If you would like to live there someday I would recommend that as your goal. I would recommend you start doing some research on permaculture which is about building wholly sustainability. Part of this sustainability is financial and piecewise building and investment. So if you want to build and live on this one day you will need the money for it.

So start with leasing the land for at least 1 year to get some cash and for you to better understand where you might want to build a structure and what you need. This allows you to plan and see what part would fit a dwelling the best. This also lets you figure out what you need for this house (i.e. water, electricity, waste removal etc.) as well as figure out how this investment can make money for you. Start small and build modularly. Your dwelling may start on as shack or even a place to set up a tent and grow larger. Same with whatever you end up doing with the land.

Permaculture talks about building food forests which are sustainable year round sources of food, goods or materials. Some of which you can sell or use yourself. These are typically perennial plants, vines and trees which all grow off each other and make a beautiful space. This can be your space for "remote working" either for yourself or visitors.

While planning on starting on this you can continue to lease your land to farmers as you slowly take it over yourself for your bigger vision. This is suppose to be small, slow but sustainable growth to your final vision.

Plant something ASAP on that naked land or it will all be carried away by rain and wind.

Ideas 1, 2, and 4 could come together with a permaculture food forest/farm. First task would be to cover crop the land to protect from soil loss and start replenishing some nutrients. Then, you have some time to make a good, phased plan of how you'd want to develop it.

Talk to experts and professionals whichever direction you take. They'll often save you much more than they cost.

Plant some dang trees for starters, unless it's only going to be land used for farming.

For now? Lease as much of that land as you can. Cover crop the rest. You do not want bare, tilled soil sitting there for a year+ as you figure out bigger plans.

How close are you to high voltage transmission lines? This might be good for an commercial sized solar farm.

No answer here, just wanted to say you inadvertently wrote one of the most interesting geolocation challenges I've seen.

You bought a bunch of land with no plan for it??

It looks like it’s been farmed recently. I don’t know what the growing season there is, you might be too late to start this year, but if you can lease it to a farmer for this season that at least has the land be productive while you figure out your longer-term plan. That way you can put plans in place to start work when the growing season is finished.

Did you ever see the movie Holes (2003)?

Why is the village depopulated, if there's a huge industrial zone nearby presumably with lots of employees? I was thinking workers might want to buy or rent low cost housing near their workplace if the land is zoned for it and you could get electric and a well, then build some simple small housing. But if they're not buying in the village, might not be a great idea unless there's something wrong or lacking with available properties in the village.

Does leasing the land pay enough to make it worthwhile? Gives you time to think.

If it's fertile land you should probably use it, or lease it, to grow food.

Farming is not easy. Until you learnt to be good at it you'll put in a lot of hours into making not much money after costs have been paid.

If I had this land, I'd grow food.

Did you check that you're actually allowed to build and live there? Depending on where that is (i guess left out on purpose), you can't simply decide to build a house in a field.

Leasing it to a farmer seems like the obvious choice. I'm not sure digital nomads would be all that interested in working in the middle of a field.

I'd love to see land like this returning to nature with native vegetation, but that would take a really long time and doesn't come with an obvious path to making a profit. Unless you sell it to developers for a higher price in a few years, of course.

Hey... You want to make a bit of money...? You should do what I did, get into Farming...

What about a campsite?

No yoghurt weaving digital nomad yoga shite.

Just a plain old campsite that people can stay on with their campervans, caravans, tents etc

You'd probably need a shower and toilet at least.

In the short term, leasing to a farmer isn't a bad idea. It looks like a lot of your tentative plans will take time and money, so a short term land rental might be a good idea.
