More on "My Dream House"

[personal profile] badbookworm has turned it into a meme, like so.

And I'll up the challenge: if a bunch of folks in my DWircle and F'list answer this meme, then I could draw a wee picture of our "Internet neighborhood," with all our fantasical houses on a sort of map / cityscape thing. It would likely rival any movie set of a Tim Burton fantasy, I tell you what.

[ETA: Sorry. I seem to have linked to a locked post. The rule of this "meme" is to post 5 or 6 things about your "dream house." That's it. All the rest is optional.

Actual plausibility, practicality, and/or affordability need not apply, but can apply, if you want. You can number your lists or bullet-point them, or not, your choice. Things you might want to include, but do not have to: What's the yard like? Neighborhood? Is it outfitted with fancy tech or magical powers?

That sort of thing.]

A locked post, woe! Could you stick the meme specs here for those of us who want to participate?

Oopsy. I'll go and unlock it.

I think the internet dream house map is a fabulous plan, btw.

You want us to make separate posts or comments to this one? I am confused. (I am easily confused, don't worry).

Hm. I will need to think on this one, but I have often fantasised about having a sprawling large Victorian house, though functioning on its own power generated by solar, wind and geothermal energy, featuring radiant heated floors, with enough rooms to accommodate everyone who wanted to stay. And each bedroom would have its own theme. And there'd be a separate and very huge library for all my books. And a very large kitchen with a nice big traditional range, and a massive fireplace, and a table in the middle for everyone to eat at because I know so well how the kitchen is the hub of a home. Hardwood floors throughout, of course. No carpet anywhere to be seen.

And it'd be on a decent amount of land and have stables and an indoor as well as outdoor pool and hot tub. And I'd have a few classic cars that I'd be restoring in a specially built garage.

And there would be an excellent playroom with just about every games console and kickass computers and a bigscreen telly.


It's riproaringly unfantastical, but it's what I'd like.
