Now the city has to plow to the new rear driveway so it was win & prevents neighbors from blocking access to it.

Where is the win-win-win?

That being said, its probably not a basket you want to put all your eggs in but if something comes up that you know is a deal and you know you have a buyer then I say go for it, everyone wins.

If you are unsure of your plan that is fine, part of your goal could be to create a winning plan. 

You'll win some and you'll lose some, and you'll grow.

In addition to the excellent feedback you received already, I'll outline below some of the benefits of using a Solo 401k instead of a self-directed IRA in case you are eligible.

You win some and lose some.

Win, win, win!
