Sad but true. A Farmall tractor is not the best answer for any of those jobs.
Having said that I hasten to add that I would get one!

A skid steer is a better loader. A commercial mower (like a Ferris) is a much better finish mower. But for jobs you don't do all the time the Farmall is a lot more fun.

I would go ahead and get a H or M with a loader, It will be very handy during construction and after. I have a 200 with a blade and a platform on the two point hitch and I use it a lot to move snow or to carry things around. If I had a loader that would be even better. There is way to much mowing to be done if you put most of that 5 acres to grass, I would get a used commercial mower for that.
