It might be Monday, but that's no reason to stop yourself from dreaming big. Whether it be a pool, an extension, a big garden - what do you want most of all for your house? Whatever it is, we want to know your dream feature!
Leave a comment and a picture that fits best below! I'll start you off - it has to be a rooftop terrace, and with a city view - what's not to love?

9 years agoThere's something about sunken seating areas that speak to me. They blend in to your home's layout without being as obtrusive as a raised patio, or a traditional table & chair setup. Sight lines are massively important in the perception of size in spaces. Plus, it's quite comforting to able to literally climb into your favorite cozy spot. I love these both outdoors and indoors! Once I have the space, I'll be picking up a shovel and digging on day one!

Comments (14)I want a Ha-ha so I can have pastoral views of cattle without having them in the yard. :) Plus it's so fun to say. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ha-ha Of course this would imply that I actually owned enough property to have a garden close to the house and still have some acreage for cattle......See MoreWhat luxuary room would you add to your dream home?
Comments (6)Can I have the Games Room that turns into a cinema with in-celling hidden screen/projector that are automatically lowered when required? That way the discreet in wall speakers can also make it a listening room? I'd also put a bar on the side ;)...See MoreWhat's your favourite home feature?

Comments (4)My dream home would have an impressive entrance with a modest room nearby for coats, shoes, prams etc. I would want a small but grand living room for entertaining guests, with two sofas facing each other and a fireplace, this room would be near a wet bar and wine room. I would have a dining room with a large circular table for 8 and a butlers pantry next to it. The kitchen would be big and sociable and access the garden and include casual dining and room for everyone to watch TV comfortably. I would have two small rooms off the kitchen:- One would be a pantry with a freezer and an overflow fridge for parties. The other would be an appliance room and a slow cooker, stand mixer, bread maker etc could all be at hand but hidden from main view. There would be a side access to the house from the parking area and garage. The garage should be big enough to be able to park and get out comfortably. My preferred choice would be to not see the cars or garage doors from the front but equally I don’t like driveways that surround houses like a moat cutting them off from the garden. Near the house I would like a covered area so that outside furniture is protected from the elements and I would want features that make the outside space useable of an evening such as lighting, an outdoor fireplace and heaters. Upstairs it is important to me to have a hotel quality bedroom, lots of storage and although I like an ensuite it is important to me to not have the WC too close to my pillow or tooth brush. I think it is nice to have an upstairs area with a TV. An upstairs laundry room is practical and I think it is lovely to give guests their own bathroom. For me slight higher ceilings and tall windows lend grandeur to even very modern houses. I prefer visually interesting houses which can be achieved with symmetry, asymmetry, expensive materials or interesting features such as the roofline or windows. My perfect house would sit behind an electric gate. Please build all of this for me......See More
