Our Dream Houses

Last week when we arrived in this township, my kids and I took a beautiful evening walk admiring the houses or should I say mansions in this neighbourhood. My girl and I had a wonderful time, imagining and fantasizing..... this...

IF WE HAVE MONEY... what would be our dream house look like. As we walked around, we started to visualize our dream houses... (no harm to imagine, as the saying goes, aim high, shoot low... LOL)
Come, Let's Go....

let's start with this....
A No for me.. .

Nope for me...

how about this? Not bad.. actually..

She finds this cute, though...

nope, this one looks simple...

She likes this one here.. she is going up...

but I don't mind having this..
It looks very "Washington-sy!" Right?

ok, more houses to come tomorrow..

  6. Hi Reana, nice homes. But where are these homes? Ipoh? KL?
    Here the statud symbol for homes is number of garages. 2 common....3...doing okay.
    Then the 6 to 12 garages and monster, humoungous homes of 10,000 to 15,000 sq. ft.

    One Chinese man recently paid $15 Million for a penthouse suite. There's one now going for $30 million!! Most likely another Chinaman.....

    And yes, lots of Chinese from China, HK own HUGE homes here, and their driveway....BMW's, Merceds, Lexus, etc.
    Friend of mine drives a BMW, his wife, his daughter and his son, all BMW's.
    Oh well....the lottery draw this Friday is $50 million, ha ha. Lee.

  8. Oh---aren't they gorgeous? I guess IF I had a house like that, I'd HAVE to have a fulltime housekeeper, maid, cook, and yard crew.... Then I could just sit and do NOTHING...

    Like the last one with those columns.
    Hugs,
    Betsy

  10. I prefer an English Cottage... so all these are not suitable for me.

  11. I think I like the simple ones best. Of course, if I could afford those big ones, I guess I could afford all the people to help keep it up, too.
    Thanks for the visit to mine this morning.

  14. Claire,
    You never know what's waiting for you round the corner. Might be a lottery win :)

    Those houses sure look nice. Wonder what some people do to be able to afford houses like that and there are people like me who still live the in laws! Eeek!!
