Big house/big lot (or acreage) with a decent/nice view (not a trailer park or on a busy highway) for me. Most small homes have small kitchens, garages, closets, etc. You can always choose to not use space or extra bedrooms...but it you do not have them; it is not like you can quickly change things. I have had homes with magnificent views that I really did not much notice after a while. A small home with big view makes for a better vacation home. One appreciates both more/the difference when they don't live there all the time. Probably why some men have mistresses.
