Default multiple pressure tanks or a 1000 gallon tank

We have a 100 ft well, but need to have the rest installed - pump,
pressure tank, storage, meter etc. Since the well is approx. 150 ft
from the home site and down a hill approx. 35 ft, would it be better
to have multiple pressure tanks or a large storage tank down at the
well (or have the large tank up the hill for that matter) Also, since
it's for a 3 bedroom house in Western WA - how much should something
like this cost


One large pressure tank in your house or (non-freezing) garage is all
you need. If you don't have enough room in the house/garage, a small
insulated pump house will do. I would put the pump house close to the
residence for convenience, but it could be located down by the well
head if you want it there.
