2. My dream home
What would your dream home be like? Read some comments and then write your own comment below.
I have two different dream homes – one in the city and one in the countryside for relaxation. The town home must be a two-storey building with two living rooms and one bathroom (separate bath and toilet) on the upper floor, kitchen and living room on the ground floor. I would like the village home to blend in with its surroundings. One bedroom must be close to a small stream nearby. Then I can hear the sound of water flowing when I sleep.

I imagine my dream home as a duplex-type with a glass wall on one side of it, which is on the bedrooms and living room side. It has a view of great mountains with a huge waterfall, and also it would be surrounded by a large landscaped area and a swimming pool. This is a very brief picture from my imagination, but I hope one day I can get it. Oh, it would be even more lovely if I could have a dog.

I'd like to live in a house. Right now I live in a small flat, but I would love to have more living space in the future. My dream home would have two bedrooms, a big living room, a big kitchen and a small garden so that I can grow some plants. A small and cosy home in the city, that's my dream home.

I'd like to live near the sea and to have a sea view. Imagine being able to hear the sea from your bed when you're going to sleep. That's my dream, to live so near to the beach that I could wake up and go for a swim, every day of the year!

My dream home would be a small house somewhere in a mountain forest not too far from a city. It would be self-sufficient (though not off the grid), with a well, a woodstove, composting toilets and rainwater collection. There'd be trees and a river nearby, though not too close (to avoid flooding!), as well as space for a garden and small orchard.

My dream home is a countryside but near the city... a house with a big garden and lots of light. I need a bathroom, two bedrooms, a big kitchen and a huge space to dance, exercise and have space for my pole.
My dream house has 3 bedrooms, 1 living room, 2 bathrooms, 1 big kitchen. Also i have 2 different house. These are have in country and city. I want to my home near my workplace and kindergarten.
I would love to have two houses, one in the city and another one in the countryside, however not far from the city to have easy access of all the facilities around in a peaceful mountainous forest area with the small river beside my room in the distance. And, I would want my city house to be a duplex with white paint on the wall, consisting of modern furniture along with the decor that complements the white walls.
Hi everyone,
I wanna travel and have a house surrounded by trees, flowers, or any plants because I love nature. I want the colour of my house to be vanilla latte because it's very comfortable and warm. Also, I want a big american kitchen and a big window to see the nature and trees when I cook. Finally, I want my home to be far away from everyone because I love calm.
I love nature, and my dream house will be in a forest, one flore, with a pond in the garden. A small lake will be full of palude plant and fish some Koi carp. I want a animal farm, for example goats (for milk) chickens (for eggs) and horses for ride.
I'd like to have different house, one in the city, one in the countryside. Because I want to relax when I finish a job like weekend. My dream home at the city has a glass wall, balcony with table and chair for enjoy night city. I want to have a living room with a big sofa, big TV, and bar counter with small machine coffee also. My dream house at the countryside I want to build mini house near by small stream with a mountain view, large landscape and have tree surrounded my house.
Hi K_Hak,
Thanks for sharing your ideas. I can really picture both dream homes! With those two houses, you'd certainly have the best of both worlds!
Best wishes,

My dream house is a medium-sized house in a calm place in my dream country, Switzerland. It is painted white because I hate darkness. It has two or three bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of them in my room. It also has a big kitchen with a large balcony. The living room has a view of the green scenery of Switzerland. I also dream of a big room that is made up of a library and a couch because I adore reading books.
I'd like to live in a house, on the mountain. In my dream house there would be 2 floor, cream color wall with large windows, it would have 2 bedroom in ground floor with large kitchen and a large hall with sofa and large tv, and on second floor, it would have master bed room and library and art room.
I would still love to live in a flat in Rome, my hometown.
My dream home would have a view on the Colosseum, with a modest-size living room, a modern kitchen, an hobby room where i could put my instruments and books. Lastly a beautiful terrace would be appreciated!!
Hi everyone. My dream home would be filled with natural light at any time of the day, and it would also be comfortable, since I love to spend time in it. It would have three bedrooms, a big kitchen because my husband loves cooking, and a beautiful garden, of course. I'd like to live by the sea or by the mountains, it’s difficult to make a choice! I love both!
My dream home is a house near the beach. It would be modern, comfortable, and bright. I would like it to have two bedrooms, a big kitchen, and a relaxing outdoor area where I can enjoy the sea view.
My dream home is living in flat all alone or wtih my close ones in the center of the city and so on
I would like to live in a very big House, my dream House would be very comfortable and has big livingroom, two bedroom, two bathroom, modern kitchen, swimming pool, and beautiful garden, I would like to live by the sea near the beach,
I'd love to live in a house. My dream home would be a traditional modern house for tropical season since I live in tropical place, (although I wonder to live in winter). The house would be located in countryside. It would have two floor, have four rooms in second floor, while living room, a kitchen, a bathroom in first floor.
It would also have a yard and a backyard so I can plant different kin plant, especially various kinds of flowers. I like flower. In the living room I would like to create a small library to place my book collection. The house would be sorrounded with trees, there is a river flow slowly in the backyard.
Your dream house sounds great Aqib! What sort of flowers would you like to have? I love roses! And I love fragrant plants and flowers, so when I walk around the garden, it's full of gorgeous perfumes. I also like to plant things that come out in every season too, even winter so there is always a bit of colour in the garden.
I do hope, one day you get your dream house ...

Perhaps I am living in my dream home. In my imaginary, I'd like to live in a high floor flat, where I can over look the outside view. It has to be a quiet place, in an allay, far from the high way, but not too far from the city center so that I could get access to hospital, school, and supermarket, easily. It must be green color by trees near my home, cause I love trees. The flat must have a large balcony, where I can stand on and catch the wind. My current flat has all the things I love to make it my dream home.
My dream house is large house consisting of two floors.
The first floor, has a spacious kitchen with a lot of different and varied kitchen tools, large reception hall and big living room.
The second floor, has bedrooms and they must be spacious and large.
Each room has two parts inside it, one for study and the other for clothes and private bathroom.
The house must be surrounded by a large green garden with different types and shapes of trees and fruits, also it contains a lot of colorful flowers and roses.
I'd like to live in a house. My dream home would be comfortable, modern, and cozy. It would have two bedrooms, a large living room, a dining room, a spacious kitchen, and two bathrooms. Ideally, I'd like to live by the sea, so I could swim there everyday.
My dream home is a house, with a big, flat living room with a large glass window, so a good view of nature is also necessary. And I do not need too many rooms, even just one bedroom is enough, and yeah the kitchen, I want it open and modern with a big operating table, so during the preparation, I can cooperate with my friends or chat with them. And yeah, a separate reading room is also necessary, not only for work, but also for reading or gaming. And also a partner is a good choice. And until now it looks a bit simple, though I want to live in a house designed by myself, it feels a bit too simple to show my proficiency.
I live in my house since eight years and I think it's relly the house of my dreams. I enjoy living here.
My dream house is a cosy and medium place, where I can make a lot of parties with my friends. There will have a living room, maybe three bedrooms and bathrooms too, with a library , a cinema and a kitchen in the garden. I will live with my pets and my future family. Maybe I will have a beautiful view from all the city.
I´d like to live in a flat located in the city center wherever I can go to coffe shops or libraries near there, something like mexico city, or maybe I'd like to live in japan in the countryside around many trees and plants and maybe a large lake.
But I rather the idea of living in Mexico City because people there is always friendly and alike to me, I'd go to the tianguis every sunday and drinking some beverages with my closest friends and family. Also I´d like to live there because I enjoy the idea of having museums and arquitecture design for nature and walters.
However, inside my flate It will have hipster's vibes but at the same time I'd like to has serious vibes, about the space sincerly is not to necessary that has much space, just the enough for me and the future cat I'll have jajajaja
My dream home is a cozy house surrounded by trees but next to the city. It would have two bedrooms, one big living-room, one kitchen, one dinning-room, one office and one room for my cats. I'd like to have a huge garden with a glass house full of plants and a place to relax
My dream house would be a detached house in the countryside surrounded by mountains. There could be a lake nearby. There are a spacious living room with fitted kitchen, one bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor, and 3 bedrooms, another bathroom on the first floor. The garden around the house would be large, where specially our dog has enough room for her. I would like to have a glass winter garden with beautiful view of lake surrounded by mountains.
I would like to live in a comfortable house near the sea with a beautiful view of the ocean.
And I want one garden to grow my stuffs.
Hey! I've never thought about it... but my dream house is a calm place near from the city, with a huge garden to the dogs and the kids, a beautiful kitchen, a nice live room full of books and photo's family, two bedroons, three bathroons, a music studio and an office to study and work.
Hi, I'd like living in the future in a small house with a nice landscape, I love to see mountains, so I'd love to live near them. Greetings, everyone
So my dream home would be far from the cities, like a house in the mountains. It would be a big house with only two bedroons, one for me and another one for a guest, a small kitchen a bathroom and a big yard. I'd like a fireplace in the living room with a protection in it(of course) because the house would be made of wood. I also would like a big dog, in order to not stay alone.
My dream house must contain only the necessary (books), and not be very huge (because who is going to clean it?). I imagine a glass wall with a view of the natural landscape following the course of the sun, on the top of a tourist mountain with snow, river or lake or in the best case thermal waters and forests in the surroundings.
Greetings and hugs.
