    This is our dream house - it has everything we want! The only thing we would change is making the garage smaller - the entire basement is a garage, so we would split it in half or thirds and add a theatre room. or perhaps just make the whole basement a rec room and have a separate garage, otherwise we love the whole house perfectly! 

    We especially love all the windows - I love natural light, and with all the French doors and big windows, it's perfect. My hubby likes the two wrap around decks the best - and almost all the bedrooms have walkouts to the deck - gorgeous!

    Someday we might be able to afford building it... someday ;)

    @miss-spunkin: Gorgeous!!!!!!

    Ok mine is a little unrealistic, but a girl can dream, can't she? Mine is from the movie Practical Magic (my favorite movie). It's the perfect combination of creepy, cute, and cozy. If I could find a home like this, I'd die.

    bride2bejc    June 25, 2011   Live in Jersey City, Wedding was in NYC

    DH & I would be thrilled with a house like this.... but the question would be LOCATION! We would want a house like this (3-4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, full finished basedment, and an open living space with a gourmet kitchen--ooh and his/her bathroom and walk in closets!) but it has to have easy access to our jobs in Manhattan...when I say easy, I mean 30 mins door-to-door...basically not at all possible in our price range.

    Something like this. Classic Old Savannah. Lots of palm trees and spanish moss, statues, iron gates... kind of voodoo spooky but classically beautiful and southern.

    Pretty much this. If our house was too big, we would fill it with a bunch of crap :P

    A medium sized, cozy house is more us. Oh yeah, and on the beach.

    I've always swooned over brick tudors - and I'd have the great room and master bedroom each have an exposed brick wall and a slate stone fireplace.  Filled with furniture from Viva Terra and the treasures I brought back from Morocco and Tanzania. With a 4-person hot tub built in to the back porch and a natural boulder fire pit in the yard.

    The interior of our dream home was on house hunters last night- and the silly people hated it! Beautifully layed out kitchen, a very formal wood dining room that would be excellent in the painted panels charateristic of the ~1750s, a den, and BIG backyard.

    But this is what we're going for with the exterior:Typical Cape Cod Style, but I would want to convert the garage into another bedroom room and build a garage adjacent to the barn

    I dream of a house on the beach. I also feel like I don't need a mansion, just 3 bedrooms, lots of windows and a nice large balcony/terrace. I want a back yard of sand and ocean. Then I'll just need a job I can do from home and I'll be all set.

    I couldn't find a pic of what we want, but I can describe it.

    Something with 2 stories and a basement, with wrap around porches on both levels. 6 beds (master, each have our own dressing room, office for me, and 2 guest rooms) 3.5 baths (1 master, 1 full upstairs probably connecting the guest rooms, 1 full on first level, 1 half in the basement), huge kitchen with island that includes butcher block countertop, range top and sink in the island, and double ovens on a kitchen wall. The entire basement would be an entertainment room, and vaulted ceilings in the living room. Also, stone facade on the front of the house, and we're debating on a fireplace or 2 (living room and basement). Also, hubs wants at least a 4 car garage, so we can garage park our cars, but he can also have room enough to work on other cars, so we would probably do a back to back garage (2 openings on opposite sides, with the work part separate from the car parking).

    I have a giant book of house plans, so I plan on drawing the blue prints myself. This will be our house eventually, just need to find the perfect location. Can you tell we have thought about this??

    @misschickpea: Ooooh I love that! I'm totally adding that photo to my file!

    This is my dream house (we're semi-copying it for our own house we're planning on building soon, ours will be two storeys though), I love the combo of the glass and old stone. It's like someone took an old farm house, removed the walls and put in glass instead:

    So many of the house around here are stucco or spanish style ranch houses--I hate stucco and I hate the red tile roofs and the sprawling one stories. Good for earthquakes but infinitely ugly imo.

    I'd love a little stone or brick tudor cottage, add a cute roof and a turret and you've got me sold. With built in bookcases and rich wood floors and beadboard and arches.
