I would take less land to have less noise. And then you have to think if you have kids having a busy road so close, the dangers.

Always go for the better location. I wouldn't want to back up to a busy road.

Better location over house. ALthough if the .75 yard had alot of trees at the back and a fence, then I would consider it. You need something to block out the road noise.

less land, away from a busy street. I think it'll help with the resale value of your house.

I looked at a house that was bigger than the one I bought, in just about equally good condition. The plot was probably about the same. The bigger house was only one house away from a two lane street. It ended up sitting on the market for months. I'd be willing to bet the location had something to do with it, but JMO.

Definitely the house with the smaller lot but away from the busy road. Think resale!
