NEHI, my wife and I did the same thing. We both grew up in Palm Beach County, my family moved there in 1957 hers in 1959. It was a great place to grow up, intercostal 1 mile away beach 2 miles. Then in 1987 after witnessing how it had changed with growth and crack cocaine it was time to get out(paradise was gone). We left from Jupiter and moved to Murphy,N.C. in 1987 and it was like moving to another country with the mountains, waterfalls, beautiful lakes, friendly people and no traffic. I got my residential contractors license after being there a year and didn't have any trouble staying busy but I'm not a cold weather person and I had to work outside in the winter, I also have saltwater running through my veins. In 1997 we moved back but not to PBC. I was there in 2010 and it is a zoo. My wife and I were just saying we should look for a small place up there for the summer we sold a larger home up there in 2015. I think you made a great choice of area's to move to, fantastic roads to ride a motorcycle unlike PBC were it sucked in the 80's. if you need a good plumber try Smokey Mountain Plumbing, he lives in Granny Squirrel.
Also don't expect anyone to work on your house during hunting season
Wish you all the best and with 20 acre's you will never run out of firewood
