Dream Homes

As age starts creeping in, I think it is natural to start thinking about where and how would we want to spend our lives after the kids have gone off to college or have their own lives.  One thing for sure and this I can confirm that I am on the same page as Captain, is that we would like to be where the weather is great, lots of vegetation and preferably closer to the beach.

I imagine something small, a couple of bedrooms, 3 the most and with a small pool.  I love resort style open concept and Captain prefers something rustic with some Mediterranean feel. Browsing through the net I found some that I adore (on a smaller scale of course!) and share here with all of you!

Have a wonderful weekend and see you all Monday!

  2. I love all of these homes! I like the idea of bringing the living areas outside, but still sheltered from the elements.

  14. Oh how wonderful it is to dream :) I love the one that sits right on the beach. My parents were both born in Puerto Rico, so I always tend to be pulled in that direction. My dream would be to live somewhere near the ocean, even if I can just see it in the distance :) Thanks for allowing us a glimpse into your dream homes!
