My Perfect House

 


  My perfect house would be out of the way, not too far from the nearest town but far enough where I do not have many neighbors. If you were going to come and visit my house, you would need to go down this long and winding back road that cuts through the Minnesota forest. At some point you would see a small wooden mailbox in the shape of a fairy house! That is your turn. 

   My driveway would be black asphalt that also cut through the trees. Though if you look up the summer green canopy shades your car from the sun. The Asphalt would have many different plants on each side, lining the driveway. After a minute or so of driving the trees would give way to a large clearing where my house would be. The first thing you would see is the drive way coming to a large circle in the middle of the clearing. In the middle of the circle there would be a large willow tree greeting you as you come to visit. 

    To the left of the driveway there would be a large four car garage that is separate from the house. This would be where my Fiancé and I hold all of our cars in the summer, when it is prime motorcycle season. In the winter it would hold our bikes in its climate controlled interior so that they will be all set for the next spring. 

    On the right side of the driveway but down the clearing a bit there would be two rather large pole barns. These would be where my fiance and our roommate would have their toys. The barn on the left would be our roommates where he would store all of his tools and have more than enough space to hang out, chill and work on his vehicles. Plus, he would also have space to work on any other project he might be interested in.

    My fiancée’s pole barn would be filled with all of his toys. He would have his professional wrestling ring of course and all the equipment needed to hold a show if he wanted to. He would also have his boats and his four wheelers. Basically anything he could want would be in this pole barn until he uses it. 

    Finally though, after seeing the large green pasture and the prime storage locations, your car would turn to follow the circle of the driveway. You would finally be able to see the house that was covered by the tree. The house would be two stories tall, and rather long for a house. It would have a four car garage connected to it and a beautiful front porch. On the second floor there is a balcony that uses the roof of the porch for it’s floor. 

    The house itself would be a beautiful light gray color with some dark gray accent. It would be covered in beautiful vines that I have planted around it. The front porch is complete with a swing with a table upon each side. There are plants hanging off the railings of both the porch and the baloney up above. There are also hanging plants hanging down from the ceiling of the porch. Around the border of the house there would be evergreen trees on each corner with various kinds of plants around the walls. 

    Opening the garage first you would see that the garage has enough space for four cars. But by design there are only three cars calling it home. In the fourth stop there are a couple comfy couches, a durable coffee table and a rather large tv that we can use if we just want to chill outside for some reason. It does get very nice in the summer after all. But other than a few posters and some various decorations the garage walls are bare. Only holding the vehicles it needs to. 

    Entering the house through the garage door, you would come to the entryway. This is also where you would be if you came in through the front door. This entryway would be a warm tan color that would feel like home. The coat closet would always have enough space for more coasts to visit. There would be a chest/bench for you to sit on in order to take off your shoes and a small table to hold whatever you need to put down for the time being. It would have a gorgeous Victorian style rug to get your shoes on before going deeper within the home. 

    Looking in toward the home you would see a staircase going up to the right, right up against the wall. Next to the first stair case there would be another one headed down this time though. On either side of the staircases there are open spaces where you would be able to explore the first level of the house. 

    Walking up to the staircases and looking right first you would see a beautiful very modern kitchen. The appliances would be black and the  granite countertops would be black and grey. The cupboards and drawers would be a light gray and it would all come together with a small bit of white accent.  In the middle of the kitchen would be a large island, on the one side of it there are stools so that if you wish you could each in the kitchen. In the middle of the island there would be an elegant black fruit bowl filled to the brim. The kitchen would be stocked with every kind of small appliance i would need for cooking or baking purposes. 

    Walking into the kitchen and turning to your left you would also see the connected dining room. The barrier of the two rooms would be a large elegant archway separating the cool modern kitchen from the elegant rustic dining room. The floors of the dining room would be real wood and covered by another Victorian style rug. The table would be a beautiful rose colored oak wood with matching chairs that have maroon cushions tied to them. There would be a matching maroon table runner and a centerpiece showing class in the middle. The walls would have paintings depicting beautiful forest scenes and maybe an animal or two. 

    After entering the dining room, if you turned yet again to your left you would see a hallway that snakes behind the stairs. This hallway would be a light gray color with a thick comfy carpet. On the wall that it shares with the stars there would be a long thin table with a couple house plants and some knickknacks. Above that there would be a couple pictures of us and maybe some pieces of art. On the other side of the hallway is the back door that leads you to the back deck, but we will talk about that later. 

    Down the hallway to the left completes the circle. There is an open arch way that leads to the first floor living room. Walking into the classy room I have created for when my more high class friends come to visit, there is another open archway to the left that leads back into the entryway. Looking at this room from the hallway there is a window on the other side that looks out onto the front porch. There is a table in front of this window that holds the record/cd/tape player that is also a Bluetooth speaker. Below that is a storage case holding all of our records/CDs and tapes. The walls of this living room is covered in white bookcases holding a variety of books and nick knacks. To the right of the room is a real wood brick fireplace. In the middle of the room is a black and grey Victorian style rug. Two white couches with gray throw pillows and blankets sit on the rug with a glass coffee table with a seashell centerpiece in the middle of them. Matching glass end tables are on either side of the couches with elegant lamps stationed on top of them. Behind each of the couches are black wood tables holding pictures and house plants. 

    A little farther down the hallway, on the right side,  is a full bathroom that is ocean themed. The walls are ocean blue with various ocean themed art works. Seashells decorate the room. The tile on the floor is a sandy color. The shower, bathtub and toilet are a very light blue color. Matching darker blue towels are on display as well. 

    Further down the hallway to the left side is our roommates room. He can make that look however he wishes, I am guessing he doesn’t care too much. It does have a wonderful view of his pole barn though. 

    Finally at the end of the hallway is my office. I had the walls sound proofed and made sure the sound acoustics were perfect, then I painted them a lavender purple. The carpet is a royal purple and is very soft. The walls are lined with black bookshelves. These shelves hold all of my various video games, and other geeky things that I enjoy. To the left of the room in the far corner I have a large L shaped deck. On the outside of the desk it is lined with more smaller book shelves. These shelves hold one of every gaming system that had ever come out. On the small side of the L shaped desk is where my two rounded desk monitors are that I use for YouTube. On the corner of the desk is another large flat monitor I use for everything else. Everything from my consoles to my monitors are all expertly connected to my state of the art gaming pc that is locked in a metal box underneath the desk. The long side of the desk is open for various art projects or whatever else I might need space for. The open area of the room is used for virtual reality games for my YouTube channel. The walk in closet however is a different story. 

    The closet I use for my religious purposes. It is a large walk-in closet that is six feet by seven feet. I took out all of the hooks and such and painted the whole thing purple, it was also sound proofed. At the far end of the closet is a desk that holds my permanent wiccan altar. The walls are lined with bookshelves. These bookshelves are filled with various wiccan/witch books and supplies so that I can practice the craft. 

    Moving upstairs there is another living room right when you get to the top of the stairs. This loving room is more modern. It has large black leather couches that let each spot recline. There is no coffee table, just a big comfy rug in the middle of the room. There are dark wood side tables with matching lamps on each end of the couches. On the Wall to the right is a huge ninety-inch flat screen tv. This is where my fiancée would have his watch parties for his various sports events that he and his friends enjoy. 

    To the left is a hallway, and the first door in the hallway is on the Left and is another bathroom. This bathroom however would be one that I let my fiancé decorate. I am guessing it would be football/ basketball/ wrestling themed. Maybe it would be Dragon Ball themed, who can say really?

    Down the hallway a little more and to the right is a room that is also my fiancés. That room would be his office where he can work on his wrestling things or do basically whatever he wants in there. I also have no idea what that would look like or if he even wants an office… it might just be a guest bedroom I let him decorate. 

    The second to last door in the hallway is on the left side, this is where the guest bedroom would be. It would have a large king sized bed with light blue comforter. The walls would be a light green and the carpet a dark green to give off a summer vibe. There would be an oak dresser that would also hold a sixty inch tv that has a built-in fire stick in case our guests want to watch something, or connect their video games systems in, before bed. It would have a closet as well and end tables that match the dresser. This room has the balcony that looks over the front lawn, with two lawn chairs and a table there so that they can sit outside if they wish. A large sliding glass door covered by dark green curtains leads to this balcony.  This room would be the room that we would change into a nursery should we ever need it. 

Finally at the end of this hallway is the master bedroom. This is where my fiancé and I stay. The room itself is rather large, though we do not have a lot of stuff in it. The walls themselves would be a light grey with black fluffy carpet. Resting against the middle of the far wall would be our California king bed sitting on a nice dark oak bed frame. Marching end tables on either side would have lamps that we can use along with places for us to charge our various devices. Across from the bed would be a large ninety inch tv mounted on a swivel mount on the wall. Below that would be an entertainment system that has various gaming systems and movies sorted on it.the walls have various posters of things we enjoy on them. 

    To the left of the room is our large walk-in closet, which is various shades of grey,  that has built in cubbies and storage drawers so that there is no need for a dresser. In the middle of the closet is a large satin chair used for putting shoes on. 

    To the right of the entertainment system is our large master bathroom that is various shades of lavender and purple. There are two sinks with lots of counter space. The full jacuzzi tub is built out of lavender marble and the full waterfall shower is a darker purple. 

On the right wall is a large glass sliding glass door with black curtains on it that leads to our own balcony. Our balcony has two reclining chairs that look over the back yard. The railing of this balcony is also covered with various plants. 

    Going down the stairs twice you will reach our basement. Now while our basement is finished it is only one very small room and one very large room. At the bottom of the stairs straight ahead is a door that leads to the small laundry room. To the left of that door is the door that leads to the gaming room.

    When you open the door you are greeted by a multitude of arcade games. In fact, the first half of this large room is just lined with arcade games and a circle of them in the middle. Past those you reach where we are usually hanging out. To the Left of the room is a large full bar that is stocked with all of our favorites. In the middle you see a pool table and to the right on the wall is a dart board. 

Finally at the far end of the room is our gaming center. There are three desks on the left wall that each hold a PC gaming setup for each of us. On the right wall are three ninety inch TVs that are mounted to the walls for each of us and entertainment systems underneath them. There is a comfy black leather gaming couch that faces the TVs in the middle of the room. Behind the couch are shelves that hold a mini fridge and various snacks. On the end wall there are most of my fiancé's funkos out on display with others in many places elsewhere in this room as well. On the ceiling are various posters depicting the nerdy things we enjoy. 

    Back up the stairs and to the back door we go to see the back yard. Just right out the door you step onto our back deck. In the middle is a sitting area that has a low table in the middle and comfy chairs around it. To the left is a large outdoor table with chairs around it for eating outside. Behind that table is a smoker and a grill set up with bricks around them and easy pull over covers for the winter. To the right of the back door is a large year round hot tub that my bedroom balcony sits on top of. 

    Beyond the deck there is a stone path that leads you straight into the middle of the back yard where a nice stone firepit is placed with company wood chairs around it. To the left is a large full in ground pool. Next to the pool is a shed where we keep out various lawn care tools and toys. 

    To the right of the firepit is my greenhouse and work station. The large greenhouse is the same width and length of the boys pole barns but only about half the height. Inside the green house I grow all of the herbs I could possibly need for the craft. It also has a large shed connected to it that I use to process the herds and also make candles, ointments and other things with them. I also use the extra space to make homemade wine. 

    But that is my dream home, the one that I dream about often. Let me know what your dream home is?
