That's actually really spacious despite the pond. My town has a second pond. I would honestly take it myself, but you did just start so you might want to explore your options? It's up to you really. It looks good to me though.
What type of town are you making?
I could put some red circles on possible locations?

For the one near the bridge you could demolish the bridge and move it over some more? These are just where I'd put my house possibly.
I just got a new town and ohmigod ;^; I hate town map resetting so much.
Did you choose a map?
