Okay, so money is no object. You're going to design your dream house (yay!). What features are you having in it?

I'm going with a wine tap 🍷

I really really hope one day you have no neighbours and lots of garden around you. That would suit you!

Edinburgh

A cottage with views of the sea. Log burner, roll top bath (possibly copper) ceiling beams, a decent sized kitchen with space for a dining table and kitchen island. Master bedroom, 2nd bedroom and a small room I've converted into my own dressing room. Super fancy wardrobes, drawers and shoe storage. French doors out from the lounge and the master bedroom to a nice garden. Wild flowers, grass and a tree I can adorn with fairy lights. An outbuilding I've converted into a luxury pod with a gorgeous small lounge, shower room and decked veranda housing a hot tub and fire pit so I can soak under the stars.

It's the dream and I've given it a lot of thought.

With the addition of natural light flooded art studio. That would be perfect.

Swimming pool but of the natural variety. I’d need deep pockets for that though. Plus a couple of acres for the ponies. Don’t ask for much I know!

that can be done the opposite way where the floor lifts as the units are better off staying still.

It would need to be suitable for me as a wheelchair user and my husband who is 6ft 4in tall.

if you look up 4 post car lifts you can see how a full floor can be lifted for anyones access in a wheelchair

but 4 post lift screws are expensive whilst the safest

on youtube type these into its search bar

Converted listed property.

Massive library room, huge bay windows with seating and draped velvet curtains. Lots of first and second editions. Essays. Fireplace. Piano. A chaise lounge. That's the most important room.

A massive pantry, all neatly organised. Several bathrooms, all with rolltop baths of varying designs. A study with no big lights. At all. I'd ban all big lights for ever if I could. :D A kitchen perfect for hosting, wreath making, cooking. Either very neutral colours or deep rich ones (the library).

An acre or two of land, perfect for foraging and growing wild flowers, willow trees, little allotment.

as goes for your other 2 there easy enough

jacuzzi can be done with a swing around seat where your lowered into the jacuzzi and you can feel the proper affect on you as the seat has holes inbuilt around it whilst only the seat is under the water

on youtube

glass bead shower floor

as goes for your walls its up to you but a wet room can be made better if you build it to your own liking but its all at a cost

Point Nemo, Cumbria

A log cabin in my own forest in a secluded secret valley, with a big open living space with log burning stove and shelves full of books and music, an upstairs bedroom full of fun things and inventions, and a big verandah out the front with a swing sofa and views through the trees down the valley towards the sea... all atop a large garage containing tools for all kinds of projects and motorbikes to enjoy riding around the winding tracks throughout the forest.

Soon.

I’ll have mine on an automatic turn plate so my bedroom window always follows the sun… mind you I’d have to cut the neighbours trees down but I’ll do that while they are at work!!!😂

I'm very aware of the last one. It's why I'm currently reducing to washing with the aid of another person and a washing up bowl of hot water.
