A Solectrac electric tractor using a 5' rotary cutter attached to the 3-point hitch may be the right electric combo. I'm not aware of any other commercially available tractors of that size. (If I had one of these, I'd use it a lot on our farm property as an alternative to our noisy diesel tractors for many applications.)
A 3-point attached finish mower will leave a better appearance (same blade configuration as a riding mower) but use more power so the battery won't last as long. Same goes for a more expensive 3-point attached flail mower.
At this point in time an electric mower or tractor will be considerably more expensive to purchase than a gasoline riding mower or a small diesel tractor. It remains to be seen how the total cost of ownership compares.
