Right now,have a two story so have stairs that I hate---live on 2 1/2 acres of unruly blackberrys and huge trees that is beyond my ability to keep up, no storage to speak of, but do have a 5 car garage!!!! Well its not mine but is the hubs----so my ideal house would be NO STAIRS, modern, bright, with high efficient appliances and all mechanical things as well. Am tired of having to work so hard for this house, I want it to work for me. We are planning to sell next month so not sure what direction we will go

@wagirl , it will be an exciting time for you once the hassle of selling is done.  Best of luck with your plans. Do you think you will build?  S

An updated or newer ranch, with no basement or attic and defined rooms, no open concept.

@Lilysmom1 --No not building. Do not want another mortgage and all of the stuff that comes with a house--DD and I are moving to a place together while the hubs will be on his own---thanks for the wishes

@wagirl , building takes a lot of energy.  I hope you and DD find a real gem as your home.  S aka Lilysmom

My dream home would be a one-story Craftsman-style. I'd love all the appropriate woodwork and built-ins, too. I'd want open-concept kitchen/living/dining. Around 2,000 sq. ft. would be good. 3/4 bedrooms (1 for an office), his/her bathrooms in the master, with a closet big enough for both of us. 

 

The biggest thing for me would be no steps or stairs anywhere--even to enter the house.

 

Also, no tile, carpet or hardwood anywhere....LVP flooring throughout!
