Our Dream House

Even before we bought our land, my husband and I already have a picture of our dream house in mind.

• We want a house that is light filled, with high ceiling and lots of windows. 
• It should have 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 2 toilets and a 2 car garage. 
• The teens should have a place to study and relax.
•  It should have plenty of cupboards, drawers and storage space. 
• The kitchen should give us a lot of space and the feel of being a chef when we feel like it, of course, why not?      

We also prefer a single storey house. There are only 4 if us in the family and we find that 2 storey houses ,with a minimum floor area of 39 squares, are just too big for our needs. We don't want to be strangers and just see each other during meal times. Big house also means big space to clean which I don't have the energy and passion to do most times and big houses also means bigger utility and maintenance cost. That being said, I also like the grand and imposing look of double storey houses so I don't blame people who choose to build them.
