I'll get a small trailer to bring around mulch, plants, and clean the yard up. May grab a pull behind aerator as well. So I see added benefit other than time and getting a cupholder.

I also figure that our next place will have a bit more space - maybe a few acres.

I was taking a look at a Husqvarna 18.5HP 42" (single cylinder w/hydrostatic)

What else should I consider? Not interested in zero turn as I need more than cutting grass.

Get a rear engine rider. Only type of mower I can stand after using zero turns for about 10k hours over the years. Perfect for small lawns, easy to maintain and can fit in small spaces. They usually only have a 30 inch deck so they make smooth cuts.
