Well... I am not sure there is one particular house that is my dream house (unless an option would be the castle at Disney World!!! cause I'd totally live there :-D ). Jason and I are hoping to purchase a home within the next year in Oxford, so I find myself often entertaining thoughts of what my home will look like, elements I want it to have/not have, things I want to put in it, etc etc etc. So I would like to share a few elements of my dream home... probably not the home I'll buy next year, but maybe the home I'll build when I'm much older :)
*A wrap around porch - this is something I have dreamed about since I was a little girl.
*An open kitchen/breakfast/family area. more opportunity for spending quality time together!
*A big ole island in the middle of my kitchen.
*A big ole garden tub - no jets, I don't like those things! I may be the only woman in the world who doesn't.
*A garage!!! No snow built up on your car, no carrying bags inside in the rain, no leather seats smokin' hot from the sun... the list could go on!
*A bigger closet! What every girl needs :)
*A room dedicated to Jason and his collectibles, so I don't have to see them :)
*A bathroom with a toilet room. No explanation needed.
*MORE storage space!
*At least one bay window. I just love those.
*No carpet floors.
*A fire place!
That's all I can think of right now. I don't spend too much time thinking about what I don't have. I try to enjoy and beautify what I do have at the moment! Looking forward to the time in my life when I can buy and build though. It will be a fun adventure.
You forgot about the most important thing! It's got to be wired with ethernet so we can have a home network!
ReplyDeleteI want that wrap round porch too! Your ideal home is conspicuous and homey. And that big ole island in the middle of the kitchen looks really striking. Good luck! I can’t wait for to that time when you can finally build that home.
ReplyDeletePS: Perhaps, most of us had once dreamed about living in Disney Land. :-)

Oh, bigger closet and more storage space are definitely essentials of every girl. Haha! I actually share your love for bay windows. I want my future home to have one installed, particularly in my sunroom to have quiet reading moments. Anyway, have you purchased a house already?

We kind of have a different taste in ideals of a dream home, but I totally like that immaculate kitchen! I could imagine me and my family gathering around that big ole island, sharing a meal or cooking together. I like the tub too, although mine would be bigger. PS: To Levi, I’m one of the few exceptions who never dreamt of living in Disney Land; I prefer the Chocolate Factory. =)
