You realize everything you just described is work, right? lol. "Own Property" is doing a lot of work in there. Are you going to replace the roof yourself when it needs replacing? Fix the sewer yourself when it backs up? Whose going to fix the well when it breaks, you? You have excess food in this scenario?? Have you heard of farming? Its a job lol. Apparently you're also an electrician/engineer in this hypothetical reality if you set up and maintain your own Solar/Hydro electric power. Wild.

Existence is work. Driving to get food is work. Cooking it is work. Scrubbing your toilet and vacuuming, work. There are maintenance tasks all of us must do to not wallow in our own filth. There is a price to pay by not having to functionally work, but in your case replacing a roof... Cool, that's a once every 10-15 year task, what are you doing in that other time? Nothing. Maybe sitting by a fire, fishing, reading, walking around the property and enjoying your self-sufficiency.
