Buy a condo in a concrete building.

• quiet as fuck if you also get triple-pane windows
• neighbors are a rare part of your day if at all
• in the right area, no cars to drive, park, or recover from impound (you need a city with a subway though or forget about it)
• things will be nearby
• the rooftop is nice
• no lawn to mow
• no roof to repair yourself
• usually decent Internet options
• with some forethought, a high vantage and a good view.

We're stoked but I hope yours works out also.
