Somehow you’ve gotten your dream home. The cabin in the mountains, penthouse downtown, castle nestled deep in the woods, nuclear bunker in the hills, or whatever. Whats the bit you’d add that might raise a brow from others? The fireman’s pole? The slide? The moat? The hidden room behind a bookshelf where you keep your stuffed animals?

    Mine is utterly mundane: I want one of those little tower nook things like on Victorian houses. I think it’s just called a turret?

      You are correct, a turret. You and my wife have the same dream. She wants to put a bunch of pillows on the nook and read.

      It’s funny because every other McMansion Hell post makes fun of houses with turrets, but I’m with you… I’d love a 3rd floor turret with windows on all sides for a chillaxing space.

        I think it’s one of those things where it has to match the rest of the home.

        If you have a fairly standard modern home and just slap a turret on it, it looks ridiculous.

      This is my dream too, but I want a retractable roof so I can set up a telescope. Also my house would be in the middle of nowhere so I can see the stars.
