Hi Dana,
Sounds like a picture perfect plan. How close to the pond are you thinking?
If you are building a pole barn or putting in a footer you could get pretty close, 25 feet or there about.
On the other hand building a basement I would stay away a good 100 feet, there could be potential leaks to the basement.
As for city town or state setback codes you’ll need to check with your local authorities as every state has different rules.
Hope this helps?

I have small pond in New Hampshire and want to build a barn overlooking it. How close to the pond can i build? Also, how large does the body of water need to be before the town, city or state recognizes it as a pond or lake and make it subject to building setback codes?

Hi Everybody - Simple Question....How much do you care about people? eTrainer Beryl Zyskind has raised for the children and victims of the Chile earthquake When's the last time you watched the news on Haiti or Chile? Amazing how small this world becomes after an earthquake. So many people homeless without food, water, clothes, etc. Promoter Beryl Zyskind is raising tents for the children of Haiti
