Today, our host at There’s A Book has asked us to stretch and dream a bit.
DESCRIBE YOUR DREAM HOME AND WHERE IT WOULD BE LOCATED.
Naturally, the stuff of dreams is fantasy. So our minds can fly to the seas, the English countryside, or an island.
I have a couple of dream homes, just off the top of my head. They’re not very realistic, but one is more so than the other.
First, here’s a country cottage in Kent.

With this cottage, I would need caretakers, housekeepers, and lots of money for maintenance, but I guess if I’m dreaming, I’ll add those into my dream.
Then, in another part of my dream life, I’m thinking a little closer to home…an island off the State of Washington, near Seattle. Bainbridge Island, and here’s a peek at a little cottage by the water.

My mind is traipsing along, exploring the gardens, the sea, and enjoying the luxurious interiors.
And, of course, each of these dream homes would be filled with bookshelves and books!!
What would your dream home be like? I hope you’ll stop by and share some of your fantasies.
Little cottages are so incredibly cozy! Beautiful pictures.

I can imagine through your descriptions, that both houses would be very nice and cozy to live in. And of course, the money to hire those to upkeep it. Aren’t dreams wonderful?

I am with you on the cottagey feel. Can you just imagine the scent that gardens like that would give off when mixed with the sea air?

Oh, I am so wishing for that scent, Gwen! I live in a part of California’s Central Valley that has a rather large city in the midst of agricultural land. There’s a lot of dirty air around! I long for the sea….
Thanks for stopping by.

I would absolutely love a quaint little cottage! It just sounds so nice and cozy, easy to snuggle down with a cup of cocoa and a great book. Excellent choices!

That’s what reading has done for me…especially those cozy mysteries, or the Maeve Binchy books. Inspired me to love cottages!
