My Dream House Tour | 2nd Edition

First of all, happy belated Valentine's day!! I hope you had a wonderful day filled with joyous laughter and love. <3

Second, it's been a year since I did my first 'dream house tour'. A whole year! What??

So exactly a year ago (well, a year ago from yesterday), I did a dream house post. It wasn't long after I posted it that I've found so many more gorgeous house pics (you should really just look at my whole Pinterest board), so today I'm giving you a re-dreamed dream house tour!

Before you read this, however, you should know I have a very mixed style. I love contemporary/modern, plus a little traditional, plus a touch of modern farmhouse, plus a hint of french, plus a trace of coastal... I can't decide. So bear with me for My Dream House - 2nd Edition!

Driveway

Just one correction to all of these driveways: they would all be lined with cherry trees instead. #anneofgreengables

Exterior

This was probably the hardest part to choose- so I included my four top favorites. Consider them views from different angles. ;)

^ This is actually my original 'dream' exterior from my first post, but I just love everything about it!

Entryway/foyer

These are pretty similar to my original 'dream' entryway. Since my dream house is pretty grand, I think the entryway should be a warm and inviting part of the house rather than a huge, high-ceilinged foyer.

^ This one reminds me of Father of the Bride (my all-time favorite movie, in case you didn't know).

Living Areas

^ This would be my front, formal living room.

^ These four would sum up my 'casual' living room, although I've always imagined higher ceilings like this one:

Kitchen

The kitchen is probably my favorite part of any house, and the one I keep changing my mind on! It took me forever to choose one!

I love the idea of having a breakfast nook in my kitchen.

Dining Room

It was hard to find a dining room like the one I've always envisioned, so just kind of split the difference between these two pictures. 😂

^ I love the layout of this room; not so much the style, but I love that there's a space to put a buffet table on the wall, and the windows. The style would probably look more like this:

Master Bedroom

Need I say anything?? 😍😍

Master Bathroom

A seated vanity is a must-have for me.

I would also l.o.v.e. a standalone tub and, even though I thought it was ridiculous when I was younger, I'd love big windows (with curtains, of course). Natural lighting is a must.

Guest Room

*awkward silence because I have nothing to say about the guest bedroom*

Downstairs/Guest Bathrooms

*crickets*

Kids' Bedrooms

^ This is the girls' bedroom pic I used in my first dream house post, but I still love it!

^ And same goes for the boys' bedroom.

Kids' Bathrooms

^ I feel like this bathroom is so Mary Poppins Returns-esque.

I'm honestly a little jealous of the kids' bathroom... that doesn't exist...

Nursery

I like the warm, wood-toned (is that a thing?) nurseries. I feel like they allow that natural light to really flood the room.

I would also love a fireplace in the nursery. I think this picture is meant to be a playroom, but I like the idea of the nursery also being the playroom.

Schoolroom/library

A schoolroom is yet another must. Not just for school, but for reading, art, nature studies- you name it!

^ This would be a little added room to our schoolroom. 😍 How can you walk in and not pick up a book and read?

Office

Okay, I wouldn't say an office is a must for me, but it would be really nice to have my own room to get stuff done, you know?

^ I have to admit, this one's a little too white for me. But I do like the fireplace! I think fireplaces can really warm up a room. As in make it more inviting, not just literally heat it up.

Sunroom

I would love a sunroom or screened-in porch for so many things! Book clubs, listening to the rain, reading, school... ahhh, it would be so nice.

Backyard

^ An outdoor dining area would be amazing!!

^ And so would a pool!

I've always wanted a backyard with either a waterfront view or really tall trees. Or both!

^ This one's so Anne of Green Gables-y! 😍

Well, there you have it! Congrats to all of you who had the thumb strength (and the willpower) to scroll through the whole post. 🙌 I agonized over this post- it took me forever to decide which pictures I liked best!

Thanks for reading, my friend. xoxo.
