They are all beautiful homes. No doubt. A couple of points just to play Devil's Advocate. If you are married or have a significant other what do you do when your dream house is not their dream house? Maybe they don't want to live in the woods.

I haven't looked at every page, but doesn't anybody want to live on the beach? Admittedly, I prefer warm weather to cold. I would rather walk out onto a nice sandy beach, and enjoy the water rather than mow grass, chop wood and fight the snow. JMHO.

Beaches tend to have lots of people. I'm more of a woodsgal anyhow but prefer fewer neighbors. That's one thing hubby and I have in common so don't have a tug-o-war there.

PS Sentry likes snow. You might get him to a beach if it's buried in the white stuff:)
 
If you bury it to the top level in the middle of 5000 acres I could be quite happy with it. Of course the stone would be replaced with steel reinforced concrete and the nearest neighbor would likely be a tad over a mile away and the nearest town would likely be smaller than the house. :rolleyes:
 
More to my liking. No crowded beaches here LadyLocust.

Sentry: You haven't put up a picture that I wouldn't move into in a heartbeat. Love them all, but really don't like the cold.

I cannot comprehend. Snow is white powdery gift from God and cold is the medium in which that gift can thrive!

Sentry: I love you my Brother, but we will have to respectfully agree to disagree on this one. You may consider snow a gift from God, but I consider it a four letter word. It looks pretty when you are sitting inside looking at it. Not so much so when you have to go out and drive in it or shovel it, and the most basic tasks become a huge inconvenience.

God put us in the Garden of Eden where we were nekkid; not dressed in so many layers they would stop a bullet. As much as I like the woods, I would opt for the deserted island.

That's crazy talk. The only thing I can't do in the winter is swim outdoors. And only then because every lake is frozen over.

And now you gave me yet another reason to love the cold; ballistic protection!

ROFLOL!! :LOL: I will give you this. There are no bugs in Winter. That is a plus.
 

LadyL I love the way the rocks are naturally layed in that house. We had a cabin up on hill over looking our natural spring fed lake [ built in early 1950s ] with uncut rocks protruding on outside walls. We lived in house at front of property but lots of time in cabin too.
All the rocks were pickedup on our property in Stone Mountain.Ga. Had an old pot bellied stove and mamas piano in it the sound over the water was something else.
