My family lives in a 2 bed apartment. The kids' room is huge (toys, dressers, junk). My husband and I - different story. We have a queen bed against the wall and about a foot of space between his side of the bed and the dryer door. Oh yeah...Its lovely. Definately a laundry room is top of the list - and a huge tub :).

Also agreed on the hardwood floor, we have laminate as between the dog and the small child they destroyed the carpet! Laura - You have your laundy inside...I'm so envious ;) apw - wood burning stoves are just the best aren't they! AliceW – Formal dining room, nice choice.

I would love to pick up the whole thing as-is. A lot of people tend to say they want a fabulous laundry room in their home...the shore house is the first time I've had a washer dryer in my home, and I'm just thrilled for that!! So even though it's tucked in our musty basement I'm sort of happy with it. My next home (a long time away, I think/hope :-) I would like a bit of a yard. As in, ANY yard! :-) That kitchen/diner is amazing!! I would love to pick up the whole thing as-is.

In my next home I want hardwood floors...all throughout! {not only because they look good..but then I don't have to worry about my dog doing bad things on the carpet...lol}. I'd also LOVE a formal dining room...the living room/dining room combo thing has gotten pretty old... Love that image of the kitchen! Fab!

Corinne - I love the idea of vintage phones but dialing on them is such a massive pain here as phone numbers are so long! Callie - good luck finding that Smeg dishwasher in the US! Janet - Dream Studio...oh yeah that would be heaven! Tasha - Tiered gardens can be pretty but if you have little ones they are a complete pain, one of my friends recently sold her house for that exact reason. PS-Erin - As someone who recently had to go outside in a foot of snow with a mad dog to do the washing and drying, I don't think that having inside facilities are too much to ask for ;) SPD – Oh those wall window things are lush – added to my next house list!

Ok, so it's not my actual house but it's my dream house too. You have fabulous taste. Then I read your previous post about the visit to the doctor's surgery and i'm all 'yes, yes, yes'. I clearly need to spend more time over here! Really nice to 'meet' you x Hey there, just visiting for the first time and saw those pictures and thought ‘that’s my house. that’s my house!’ Ok, so it’s not my actual house but it’s my dream house too.

I love your wish list! and that dishwasher is very pretty! I haven't seen one on this side of the pond that pretty! I will need to investigate and research, would be perfect in my new home. i am in the process of moving and you are so right about the compromising.
