What would your perfect dream home be like? I'd love an English-style mansion that is brick and stucco and has large pillars in the entrance. I would like two grand staircases in the foyer with wrought iron spindles and for there to be a large chandelier in front of the over-sized window above the front doors. Throughout the house will be wainscoating and crownmolding and marble flooring. There are so many details to I can use to describe this house it's not even funny! Oh, and I definitely want it in Atlanta, Georgia! So what would your perfect dream home be like and where would it be located?

I want to live underground. Preferably in a city in the mountains. Probably can manage it, on a small scale.

I would not recommend anywhere on the Gulf Coast.

I voted for an apartment since there is no medium size house

Medium-sized houses would be included in the subarbs. What size is medium to you? In my perspective, it's anywhere between 2,300 and 3,500 square feet.

Am actually in the process of thinking about moving. Am currently in a big house in the middle of nowhere at the edges of an island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Thinking about moving to a small one bedroom condo on a beach in Honolulu. Trying to decide if I can handle living in a city...

I love small rooms/houses/hotel rooms.

I want to live in a house, made out of shipping containers, shaped like that, middle of nowhere, preferably screened from the world by trees.

I'd love to live in the Benny & Joon type house. The best one be the one in Spokane they actually used in the movie.

Pretty much the house I live in now, maybe a bit fancier with a haunted mansion theme, a few statues, a rose garden, a nicer bathroom, and a huge in-ground swimming pool!

Do you have a housing obsession?
