Well, I bought this "Semi" house 8.5 years ago and I spent a fortune upgrading it last year.... to have many features my "dream house" would have, but it is still lacking..
Currently 1800 square feet, all to myself in a nice area, acorss the street from liquor store, a mini plaza with a diner, and 24 hour convenience store... and 500 feet from the lake. -My living room was one foot too small in each direction for a pool table, so dream house will have a pool table room. -jacuzzi tub in master bedroom -covered outdoor pation with a hot tub (I may still do that this year at this house, but I may wait for next house) -heated outdoor workshop/garage that I can put my wood tools in, and work on projects in the winter time -car port or garage for van/car -let's not forget central air (I just added it last summer, a must have!) -kitchen with LOTS of cupboards to put stuff away -3 or 4 bedrooms and of course my office (I have 3+1 bedrooms now, and they never get used anyways) -sky lights for lots of lighting -tv room, I already have a big tv, almost 5 feet projection - but want to buy a large overhead projection system with the 9 foot powered screen  I could go on, but thats the basics |

We looked around new houses for 2 yrs. We not like their design the houses yuck!! haha!!We was very picky!!! We went to loan bank few places then approved it. We decided that built a house in 2000 to 2001. We moved a new house in March 21, 2001. My husband designed the floor plan our house. My husband graduated the Architectural University of Oklahoma.
2,742 sq, 2 garage, our master bedroom (jacuzzi tub in master bedroom), one master bedroom, other 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, living, dinning, kitchen, patio..... My husband gifted me a jacuzzi tub Christmas 2000 for our master bedroom. We bought a new furniture so we waited and waited almost 3 months. They told us that In March They will bring it our furniture to my house. I can't WAIT!! I am so mad! because too longer grrr!!! We bought new bigggest southwestern shelfs. We will buy new big tv 42 inch or 50 inch soooooonn. My old furniture and old frames everything sold out! We like change different style southwestern living. Next month, We will buy new coffee table and 2 tables for living room. Last edited by EagleCherokee63; 02-20-2008 at 01:08 AM. |

 Actually its a house with cedar shingles, very Northwest style. To get to my house one crosses the little bridge as the creek is a run-off from Loomis Lake and is filled with river otters, blue herons, variety of ducks. Salmon also swims in the creek. The creek is mixed with salt water and fresh water. The forest surronds my 3 acre of land with douglas firs, western pine, oak with coastal moss attached to it. There is an opening that reveals the Cove. With the 'big'house'- a duplex with the office, kitchen, 2 bedrooms, living room with 2 fireplaces is the one I live in. I have 2 big picture windows that look into the Cove. In the middle of the Cove are wild azaleas, coastal rhodendrons, lavendar and bamboo. In the Cove there are 11 beach cottages that we rent out to people that want to vacation at the beach. The 11 beach cottages sit in a semi-circle and each one has a different theme. Cottage #1 is a two bed that is dedicated to Flowers-- hence, "Flower Power." Cottage #2 is a one bedroom with a nice size kitchen and can be rented out as a two bed cottage as it has a hide-a-bed and is affectionately called, "Ruby Montana- Western". Cottage # 3 is a two bed cottage and is dedicated to the Native Americans that lived in this area-- the Chinook Indians--"Native American Cottage". Cottage #4 is also a two bed cottage and has the same lay out as numbers #2, #3, and is deidcated to our furry friends-Cats- hence "the Kitty Cottage." Then there is an opening and then three cottages #5, #6, #7 , all side by side with a carport in between then except for #6, #7 as it is a shared carport. #5-- is dedicated to women that first saved this place-- hence the name "The Goddess". Cottage #6 is dedicated to man's best friend--dogs --hence the name, "The Dog House". Cottage #7 is dedicated to the American bald eagles that we see on a daily basis here in the Cove, flying above us--"The Eagles Nest". Then there is another opening revealing a memorial tree for those that have come here and passed away and people want them to be remembered. It borders the creek with a little trail to a grassy patch area where one can sit and reflect. Cottage #8 and #9 are one bed cottages with #8 dedicated to birds--hence-"The Birdhouse". #9 is "Angels Among us" as we believe that there are angels among us. Cottage #10 is the only two-bedroom and is "Retro-Hollywood". Then after one settles in and walks towards the path that is along Cottage #1--they will see another modern cottage--the Annex--"Honeymoon Suite"--off to the side as well as 3 garages for all of our toys, mostly yard tools, and along the path, they will see the flower meadow with an arbor. Also a big green garbage can in a cage as the cage is to prevent the wildlife from entering the garbage can. The path is protected by heavy forest canopy After walking 600 footsteps- through the forest and across the sand dunes--one will be kissed by the mist of the Ocean. Oh yes.....you can bring your dogs here for a visit.

All wall color is "Latte" Wood Cabinet is "Espresso" Granite is "Santa Cecilia" Carpets color is "Tan" in only in bedrooms Wood floor is "Scraped with grain-Royal Mahogany stain" very best and last-long to 100 yrs! very thick wood. All in house but not in bathrooms and wash/dryer room. We designed for our master bathroom what we want... Hope it will come out as great ! Reason why, We choice this house called "Wall Homes " Cuz They provided us a great deal is 50% off all upgrades, free 2 inch wood faux blinds and free granite! ! That is HUGE great deal! ! The best! ! Look up at Welcome to Wall Homes - Your Idea of Home and get idea what they look like. Recently,I just found out that our new house will be done in 6-8 months! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! ! Cuz of upgrades! ! M-

I want a little cozy cottage with two full baths (a lovely master bath of course), a basement, a porch.
Something like the cottage in The Holiday... that is my dream home. Of course it's got to have my boyfriend and our future brats in it. |

Well, the HGTV Dream House contest is over. I didn't win.
 But now the contest is open for the HGTV Green House. I'll try again. HGTV Green Home Giveaway: Enter to win a eco-friendly home built using green building practices That's only about 2 hours from my house, so maybe I can go look at it.

*nodding smile* I can understand how you feel when you watch your house building, SubcaladyTX... I had the similar experience as you when we watch our dream house built in 1988-1989.
Keep your post update...

I saw my next (and if so, probably last house) yesterday in Tangent, Oregon. One level, nice master bedroom, plus two spare rooms for guests and study. Spacious kitchen with cooking island. Two-car garage plus work area. Covered patio with brick grill. Only $355,000. In Montana, that would buy you a 64 acre ranch with a two-horse barn and a red-headed cowgirl to help run the place. |
