ideal home!
I was just thinking about where I would live if I had the choice. It would be a massive detatched Victorian house- one of those ones that is now flats- with about 5 floors, a cellar and lots of weird little rooms and staircases.
My friend lived in a house like this when we were 10, and she would take me to a part of the house and I would have to find my way back...! (It was more fun than it sounds!!) A house like that would now cost millions.
What sort of house would you live in if you could choose??!

Great question!
I think I'd like to live in one of these houses, or a nice Georgian double fronted house. It would have to have lots of rooms. I live in a three bed terrace and dream of having more space.
Well mycatis I do live in an old cottage like you describe and while it is nice and I'd not change it for the world - you do have to be a bit handy about the place they do need quite a bit of upkeep.
But if we're playing fantasy houses I'll have a Jacobean manor house with original floorboards blackened with age and diamond point leaded light windows offerring views onto a manacured lawn and herbaceous border in the last throws of it's summer glory.
That reminds me I must check my lottery numbers
