This paragraph speaks volumes to me.

If this is what you REALLY want in retirement, I'd let the old homestead go. Selling it and using your share to aid in obtaining your dream seems to make more sense to me.

You haven't "enjoyed" being a landlord for one property - so why take on a second? If you need some storage - to me it makes more sense to have it closer than 3 hours away.
