Whenever a lien, perfected and preserved under this article is sought to be enforced against any property outside of any city, town or village, it shall be the duty of the court before which any suit for the enforcement of such lien is pending, to determine in its discretion how much land surrounding any such building shall be subject to such lien. In any event, not more of such land shall be so subject to such lien than shall be reasonably necessary to the full enjoyment of such building or other improvement.
