Who says you have to mow it?
Wildflower meadows
Other lawn alternatives

You could plant evergreen saplings around the perimeter, spread meadow seeds in a U shape with the open end facing your house, and leave .25 acre of traditional lawn. Once the growing season is over, mow it down to keep it meadow or leave it be to let it slowly become a wood lot.
