What is your dream home?
    #18736429 - 08/21/13 08:39 AM (10 years, 6 months ago)

So guys, what does your dream home look like? Is it house? Maybe you want to live in a boat, or on a zeppelin? Perhaps you favor a more nomadic lifestyle and the open road is your dream home. Please share!

Here is mine.

I would want a sort of Victorian style house, something like this...



I just totally dig this style of architecture, it's kinda trippy. I would want it on a lakefront property on one of the Great Lakes, private beach and all. Something like this....



I would want it to be somewhat secluded, just somewhere were I won't be bothered and can shoot guns and do dr00gz to my hearts content.

I'd like a nice big Victorian Library, like this....



Hand woven rugs from exotic far away lands, rare antiques and books everywhere. I'll have someone paint one of those very serious old timey portraits of me so I can hang it on the wall. I'll sit in my kangaroo leather recliner, in front of the fireplace, with a book in  one hand and a big old Gandalf pipe in the other. I'll be wearing a red satin robe of the finest quality of course.

I'd also like to have a greenhouse like this....



Probably a bit bigger though, I'd like the interior to look something like this...



I would fill it with all sorts of exotic botanicals, many of the psychedelic variety:grin:

I'd also like to have a smallish movie theater, that'd be nice. Oh yeah and I'll need some sort of sailboat as well!

The best part is, it isn't completely out of reach...I could make it happen, obviously a ways down the road but it isn't impossible.

So please, tell me where you would want to live!

Those old victorians sure are something. There a real bitch to maintain though old houses suck up money. My dream house would just be a well maintained one story rancher in a quite neighborhood.

They sure are. I was thinking about having a new one built though, not buying one that was already there, I'm sure either way it would be expensive as fuck though.

Not bad, nice and simple, I can dig it.

My dream home isn't so much about the home.. I just want a lot of land away from the heavy city congestion I've spent my whole life in. Being close to a fishable body of water would be a major plus, I love fishing. I love going out to the country, where you can drive around and not see anyone for an hour or more. You also don't get night skies in the city like you do out there.. The sky is amazing at night out in the country.


--------------------
With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way.
I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today.
Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear.
I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear.


You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being
With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

A home on the water I built myself and a boat I also built myself to go on long retreats. :thumbup:

Definitely lots of land. Freedom is your own land.

Right on :nodofunderstanding: I totally see where you are coming from.
Cities are cool, I like to visit, but when it comes to where I actually live I need trees, water, stars, all that good stuff.

Exactly! I love sailing, it is so...relaxing. I'd love to just have my own boat and go out on little 2-3 day trips whenever I feel like it.

I'd be fine with one of these hippie cob houses.



Something like that. Maybe bigger. Turf roofed and half-sunk into the ground. And a sculpted facade like this



And enough land to grow sweet potatoes and melons and corn and peppers and pumpkins and plums and beans. It would be in a good climate too, like southern France, northern Spain, Italy or Hungary.

My dream homestead would be relatively simple. Just a several acre farm that produces anything I can produce. Crops, edible mushrooms, livestock.

I looked at a couple, brand new Victorian style homes a few years ago.  They were impressive, but there's something odd about a "new" home in an older architectural style.

I'm always torn between ultra-modern homes and rustic, older homes with "charm".  I think I did a good job combining the two in my current home.  I have the perfect blend of modern amenities (e.g. stainless steal appliances, high end home theater etc.) along with old school charm like reclaimed wood coffee tables, distressed cabinets etc.

...most subjects find the experience valuable, some find it frightening, and many say that is it uniquely lovely.

I'm living in my dream home already.  MPDland is 4,081 square feet and includes 5 bedrooms, 3-1/2 baths, a library/office for me, a sunroom with a curved wall of tinted glass (makes cool waterfalls when it rains!), a low maintenance front-yard, exotic gardens in back and a detached2-car garage.  It is one swell place to be sure and it only costs $2,200 a month plus my utilities and insurance.

You only live once (in this realm,at least), so go big or go home. :nodofunderstanding:

Old, large houses are annoying to maintain.
I'd like a two-story, four bedroom, two bath with a spacious living room, den, porch (front and back), attached greenhouse, garage with room for four cars and my tools, and a swimming pool. And a basement.

I grew up in my dream house. Five bedrooms, 3 Baths, pool, hot tub, giant trampoline. I was a spoiled child looking back

I have lots of dream home type ideas. I think realistically though it would be a nice apartment in a city somewhere. Or a nice house if it's a city with nice houses. Nothing super crazy. Couple floors, enough bedrooms, couple bathrooms, kitchen, living room, and a third room that I could put a pool table and a nice stereo setup in. Yeah, that would be my dream "house".

I think location would be a bit more important than the house. I'm more willing to live in less if it means living somewhere I want to live.

Nobody else wants a farm? I think living only off the land would be wonderful. I'd be my own boss, but it'd be hard ass work probably.

I love the idea of living off the land, I just know realistically it's not for me. One of my friends and his wife want to do that eventually and it's awesome and they probably will. They already have chickens and a decent farm and green house just in their backyard in Augusta where he's stationed for the Navy. Me, however, I know I wouldn't do it. Or maybe I would. Either way living in a city is a must, so it would be more of a small garden that I could use as a base. Veggies, herbs, fruits, that kind of thing.

I enjoy gardening, but the responsibilities of operating an entire farm go well beyond that and it is certainly not for everyone.
I just want a decent sized greenhouse.
