2 &/or 7

1. Or 4 if I can paint it pink. Or 5 if i can make the roof pink...with sparkles!!!!!

Ont, let's buy a castle!! Amy, I think #4 needs a different color too!

Well I think #3 is quite pretty. But #5 is the Biltmore in NC, so it would be close by. I'd want to stay near the family. So they could come and visit. :)

That is soooo far from possible don't know if I know..but all seem way too big for me to want to live in.

#6 looks a lot like my current home. I guess I could continue to live there.

If money were no object, I would buy a ranch with land for horses. It would have a large barn. The house could be a small three bedroom but I would have a nice large kitchen and laundry room for sure. I would also want a pool if it were in a warmer area. So none of those castles work for my dream home. Of those mansions, I like the #6.

Nope. I like cottages. Those don't look cozy at all, even if they do include "the help".

None of them. I would also need to know the location. Has to be near a coast. I like my privacy. I don't want a large house to keep up. I don't want to live with help either. What Arkansas Girl said. A ranch with horses. Near the coast.

If the castle is near the coast it would work as a second home. With a pirate ship. Needs a pirate ship nearby. Along with the stables.

I need another option. A smaller cottage by the sea would be my choice.

I'll be down the shore from Sabbath.

None of them would be my choice and of course I would need to see the inside. However from the picture only I would pick no. 3.

Me too....I want a little 1500 sq ft cinder block house in Turks & Caicos or Bonaire....surrounded by coconut and mango trees....maybe a Brugmansia or two. :0)

Sorry. None of the above. The dream home is a cabin near the woods and a pond or lake or stream surrounded by mountains. The older I get, the simpler I want it. I see those beautiful and grand buildings as work.

3 or 6, but I'd prefer something with more trees in the mountains. Hard to tell the context of what the surrounding property is like.

None of the above. I love my house.

#2. I would like to live on the water and it looks like a confection. I have this image of my lying back in a canoe and being oared around - kind of Great Gatsby - ish.

I agree with those that said they wanted a small house. My little cottage with its gardens and picket fence (that I built) is just right for me.

I would rather have a cottage on the beach in Southern California.

Since we're in fantasyland, I would also pick #2. It may be drafty, yes, but also sure to have lots of cozy corners and certainly a large library!

If I didn't have so many pets I would pick a tiny house too. But since I have a bunch of pets I'd want a dome house on a nice piece of land maybe even by the beach. I'd want to grow my own food and do hippy things like that. :D

I can't even pretend any of them appeal to me....I prefer a much smaller house.... no more than two bedrooms. Lots of land and a really nice barn. In my fantasies...a covered riding arena.

None of them! I'd like a log cabin in the woods.

#6. I like all those big windows. They would let lots of light in during the day. I also like the curved stairs leading up to the decks which are probably called something else when attached to an elaborate home. I'd prefer that the pool was a small natural lake, but I suppose you can't have everything!

I will be a little way down the beach from Nicole! In my hammock at my beach bungalow!

The only one I would be interested in is that beautiful pool, I miss my pools.

None of the above. If money were no object, I'd have apartments in New York, London, and Paris, an old manor house in Wales, and a little house in the woods in the Midwest USA.

OMG Stacy. Can you imagine the libraries, couches, rugs & fireplaces?

We might have to split the gas bill in the winter. LOL.

I think maybe 3, or 7, but both would have to come with the housekeeper included. And probably furnished, I don't know that I could make that many decisions if I did have the money to shop.

Really, we chose this house because it's so solid/sound, has no stairs and seems ideal for aging in place.

Actually #2 is The royal Château de Chambord at Chambord, Loir-et-Cher, France, is one of the most recognizable châteaux in the world because of its very distinctive French Renaissance architecture which blends traditional French medieval forms with classical Renaissance structures. The building, which was never completed, was constructed by King Francis I of France.

And #1 is Castle Hill refers to either a 165-acre (67 ha) drumlin-surrounded by sea and salt marsh or to the mansion that sits on the hill. Both are part of the 2,100-acre (850 ha) Crane Estate located on Argilla Road in Ipswich, Massachusetts. The former summer home of Mr. and Mrs. Richard T. Crane, Jr., the estateincludes a historic mansion, 21 outbuildings, and designed landscapes overlooking Ipswich Bay, on the seacoast off Route 1, north of Boston. Its name derives from a promontory in Ipswich, Suffolk, England, whence many early Massachusetts Bay Colony settlers immigrated, and predates the Crane mansion.

Like little houses too.

Ok I may need to add to my answer. lol I'm with imstillchloecat on top of my hippy dome I'd also like an apartment in New York. :D I was just there last week on vacation and I miss it already :(

A nice small English manor house would be more my style. And the help to run it!

I actually do live in a log cabin, on a lake, in the middle of a pine forest. So...for a change of pace I would also like an apartment on Manhattan's upper east side for vacationing.

Scott, since we'll be located in France, we need to start French language lessons right away! LOL!

Our dream home in the middle of he country

Big homes have never been of interest to me at all.

My dh and I have never wanted a home like those. We much prefer to have something smaller and that's surrounded by nature.

#2 is a real palace. The others are more on the McMansion side.

My stepmother grew up in a mansion nicer than all the other pictures, with the exception of #5 of course (the Vanderbilt mansion is just a tad bigger).

What you see as "wealthy" can all be relative. Let's be thankful everyday for what we have.

Years ago Reese Witherspoon starred in a movie The Man in the Moon...I don't have a pic but that's my dream home if any of you have seen the movie.

3,4 or 6...as the OP stated,if money were no object.... then u can afford everything that goes with it and a small cabin in the woods, cottage on the beach, apartment in NYC :)

#1 or #7. The others are great to look at but very impractical to live in. I like the practicality of #7 except it give me the impression it is a barren location without nay view at all. If I'm going for "cost is not a consideration", let me have a bit of a view of nature.

#4 is my favorite....I've always like the Mediterranean style of house.

Really, I'd like my own house back again. Only house my husband and I ever owned and he made it so perfect. Even after ten years I miss it.
