Probably kinda 2 story modern cabinish. Ideally somewhere with ALL the seasons but south enough that winter isn't 6 months long. Bible belt would be the perfect location but I could never live there.
It would have to be rural enough so that I could have a 1000m range and obstacle course in the back yard but located close enough to civilization that I got decent restraunts, movie theaters, etc. I'm not sure a place like that exists. |

Well since we are dreaming.
In my dreams CA is primarily a Republican state and very pro-gun. Much like TX. But it keeps its easy going culture. With that said. A 2 story 5bd rm, 3.5 baths, pool, gameroom, fully electronic home on Huntington Harbor. Slip attached where my 50' sail boat would be docked. 4car garage to house my Land Rover, Ferrari, Mercedes CLK55, and my BMW M3. Above the garage is a work out room. Marble entry. Living room open to the harbor. |

At this point I'd settle for a broken down trailer in trailer park as long as it's in a free state.[}:D]

anything that puts me close to civiliazation, I can't see my neighbors home, and be able to shoot out of my porch window. That would be ideal.

I want a log cabin, two story, with a four car garage in the mountains of Colorado, or Tennessee.
Must have a fireplace. Big front and back porch and....... NO NEIGHBORS FOR AT LEAST A MILE! So, when do my wife and I move in? |

Make mine a single story home with a finished basement. 2 bedrooms, a den, and a large living room. It would need a bathroom in the master bedroom, and another one somewhere in the house as well as a half bath in the basement. The basement needs to be clear enough of obstructions that a pool table could be put in. 3 car attached garage (heated of course). Large pole barn out back.
All this situated on a 1 mile square of some of the finest deer hunting woods around. Throw in a 20 acre lake loaded with largemouth bass and ducks and I am a happy guy. I will manage to cut my own trails for the 4 wheelers around the perimeter of the property. The only other thing I would request is a large berm to be used as a backstop for shooting. sigh............... |

Cottage on the Atlantic in the Florida Keys! Must have a nice shop for me to work in, and a 3 car garage. Other than that, my wife can choose.

Log home, modern log home you know, I don't want bark falling off the logs.
Track lighting. Modern appliances. Skylights everywhere. Windows everywhere. Great view, next to ocean on a huge property. Every single room is on a different level, no one room goes into another without at least 1 step up or down. Just a thing. Full scale runway out back, smaller grass runway for R/C planes next to it. Acres and acres of gentle rolling hills covered with grass complete with a professional irrigation system to keep it all green. Outdoor pistol/rifle range with FDCC "active/reactive" type targets included. Skeet and trap too. I'm sure I'll be back to edit this one as I think of more. |

Location: On 100 acres in the foothills of a western mountain range. With varied terrain and foliage. About 15 miles from a small city (10-15K pop) and 60 miles from a major city (100K plus).
House: A bright airy one story 5 bedroom ranch approx 5,000 square feet. Big rooms, 8' ceilings, plenty of space, lots of closets and storage space. A large 3 car garage. Additional requirements: 1. A four position 100-200 yard rifle range and a four position 50 yard pistol range near, but not too near, the house. 2. A large barn sized outbuilding workshop with heat and power. Two thirds dedicated to a well stocked shop facility with woodworking, metal working and welding equipment. The other third dedicated to vehicle maintenance/restoration with a hydraulic lift, paint booth, etc. 3. A medium sized barn for a few horses. 4. Large tracts of public/BLM land adjoining my land for recreation/hunting with loads of elk, deer, and antelope. 5. A good sized creek/stream running through the property with a small lake stocked with rainbows and browns. I could go on and on...but that would be too selfish. That pretty much covers my dream home. |

Some refinements on the garage:
3 or 4 cars, 1 bay with pit or lift and plenty of tool space. Also need one those rooms converted into a gunsafe. Kitchen needs to have all stainless counters and appliances with sloping drained floor for super easy cleaning. The rest of the house can be duct-taped cardboard boxes for all I care so long as I have a nice place for the cars, guns and cooking. |

Garage with a house attached, set on lovely property in the middle of Pismo beach, in a newly freed state of California. One of the new amendments to the state constitution would say "All must pay homage to BustinCaps, and leave him alone forever." All firearm/vehicle/tool/ammo companies would be required to give me a sample of each product they sell to ensure it is cool enough for my world. Just my humble vision.

Everything else is of minor importance, if I can have my own indoor shooting range as a part of my home.

Gotta be a castle on 500 acres in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Looks something like Hogwarts from the Harry Potter Movies. Need a 5 acre lake to feed the moat.
Also needs to be free and clear--no mortgage. /Dreaming on... |

refinished Titan II missile base! Setup with workshops and armory areas below and a range up top. Never have to get new siding. Wonder what you could do with the missile pit?
