You shouldn’t care about whether or not what other people think. If it bothers you, it bothers you.

Me? It depends on how far the power lines are away. I’m not a big fan of sloped hills, especially if the hill is sloping inward toward the house, but that’s just me.

Personally, if spending an extra $50k gets you a better location and better spot, I’d do it. I wouldn’t get the best one, I’d trade off a home in a better location versus one that is more upgraded… But that’s just me.
