You are fortunate to live near the anthracite mines in northeastern PA. A 22 ton dump trailer load might last you 5 years. Get 100 tons and you will have fuel security for the rest of your life. Coal doesn't care where it is stored. Modern stoker stoves are automatic. There is no smoke from anthracite and no chimney fires. Just agitate the grate several times a day and remove the ash when refueling every couple of days.
You should also be hoarding Diesel fuel for your tractors and vehicles. I collected 5000 gallons several years ago from home owners switching to natural gas. My cost was less than $1.00 per gallon. I have a lifetime supply. All my leads came from Craigslist.
Both of these initiatives are easier and cheaper than building a new house. If you don't like either fuel option down the road, both can be sold for double or triple your cost. Heck, you could even go into business now if you want but your fuel security will be gone.

"Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
