I like the planting trees idea. Something not too messy that grows fast.
Having the only McMansion in the 'hood next door to you sell for a lot of dough is not going to help your home value much.
The guy is an asshat. His response to you was pretty over the top. Nothing to be gained by retaliation though. I would be sorely tempted to go get a junk car for $100 and park it in my back yard, up on blocks, but would try and resist. It does not really matter how you get along with him, unless he plans to live in the house. The people who buy it are going to be your primary concern. In my experience, folks that buy huge houses that are squeezed onto the lot are not pleasant company.
