Power steering and 3 point hitch are nice and they can be added to most 1950's tractors like your Allis (for $1500?). Five to fifteen acres won't generate the income to pay for another larger tractor.
Myself, I'd trade the 8N or the WD in on a newer tractor with the features and comfort you want. You probably don't put on enough hours to realize much fuel savings from the extra cost of a diesel, and a gas tractor will start much easier in below freezing temperatures. Oliver 1600, 1650, Case 730, 830 Comfort King version (true 3 point), IH 656, 756, 706 with 756 shifter, Deere 3010, 3020, 4010, 4020 and other 1960's gas tractors will fit your budget and have the hydraulics to handle a loader very well. They are all aproaching fifty years old and it doesn't sound like you will use it heavily, so I'd shop by tractor condition rather than by brand name.
