Everyone dreams of living in their perfect house and for me it would be nothing less than a palatial retreat. It would be situated in a quiet place on the outskirts of city because I hate the hustle and bustle of city life. It would be a place where I can enjoy my life to the fullest and avoid after my daily works. I would like to have a swimming pool in the backyard and a beautifully landscaped garden in the front which will be ideal for relaxation. From exterior it would have large glass windows to let a lot of natural light in and tall pillars with a grand entrance. It would also have some beautiful stoneworks. The living room should be very spacious with a sofa set in one corner and a television on the other which would be perfect for watching movies and sports as well. In addition to that, I prefer to have a coffee table in the middle surrounded by cosy chairs. All the rooms would be fitted with smart gadgets to control lighting, temperature and entertainment system. The kitchen would have latest gadgets and appliances in order to make the life more easy. In more than that, I wish to have a home theater for movie nights and a fitness room because I am little bit health conscious. Furthermore, this home will have a library to improve the reading skills of myself and my family members. I am planning to live in such a beautiful house as early as possible and my home would be a perfect match of functionality as well as luxury.
