mark is on a distinguished road

Recently had a line on another place that was a little bit more interesting in that the beach was sort of crescent shaped with cliffs on either side making it private.

Issues were though nearest road was a kilometer away, beach too narrow to build on so house would have been on the bluff behind (carving stairs up 20m of limestone to access), no water, no power and the tiny problem the only proof of ownership the seller could produce was he paid property taxes on it in 1980. Ended up it was now a timber reserve with severe restrictions on development.
