What is your fantasy home like?

[CowardlyNNChanger]

Mine is messy, a bit untidy but not dirty. It has a few toys around. There are cups from where friends have been round for tea that are not yet washed and put away.

There are pictures hung on the wall, not all at right angles but wherever I hammered a nail in.

All the school stuff is by the front door, ready for the morning.

There are cards up, and photos and pictures the DC have drawn, stuff pinned to the walls and fridge and doors.

The garden is full of flowers instead of bare, the payoff is a few weeds but it is worth it.

People eat biscuits in my home and don't worry about dropping crumbs.

Family and friends feel comfortable in our house.

DH has OCD and is now going for counselling so I may be on the way to achieving my dream home, but it seems so far away.

Does anyone else fantasise about what 'home' is to them?

I have a lovely house, garden, great area, but to make it home I need more laughter, a more relaxed atmosphere, hints to the people who live here rather than a show home.

Seems a bit bonkers to be lusting after piles of clutter and fingerprints on the walls when most people would love my pristine home

I'm lucky enough to have a utility room with washer & dryer, but surely I can't be the only one fed up carting dirty clothes downstairs (love the chute idea!) and then carting clean clothes back upstairs to put away??

In my dream house, my utility room would be upstairs, have space for the ironing board to always be up and adjacent to my walk-in wardrobe so easy putting away. yes I'm sad.

Better still, my dream home would have a maid and a butler!!

I'd love a cottage with a wooden fire and a cosy living room and a dog too

Out of sight / hearing of any neighbours.

With a flat garden.

Painted in my favourite colours.
