My dream house would be about 3000 sq.ft. and about 10 acres
and some distance from neighbors. Make it energy efficient all around and very well insulated against the elements. Include a detached workshop and greenhouse and a heated pool with spa. Have a nice big garden plot and some fruit trees in the orchard.
Main thing is to have enough money to live and not have to work except in selected projects and interests. In reality my 1500 sq. ft. home with small yard brings its own satisfactions albeit on a lesser level plus its paid for less the yearly extortions in property taxes and insurance rip offs.

Sure do like your dream house…self-sufficient is important. I recently met a couple that has just about what you want. They have outdoor all-year veggie garden, fresh kale in the snow, amazing in North Idaho. It’s in a plastic walk-through tube thingy…I hope to learn how to do it next time I see them.

Happy dreaming, may they all come true.
