Garage
- Whole house/attic fan - amazing.
- Single level home on a slab
- A private interior courtyard for relaxing/entertaining with sliding patio door access from kitchen/family/living spaces.
- Larger 2nd/3rd/4th bedrooms - go minimum 14x14 with walk in closets and private baths
- Avoid overly expansive master bedroom suite . Our master has a 12x14 retreat that is never used. Wasted space IMO. YMMV.
- Every room gets prewire for alarm/sound/data
- Walk in master shower done in natural stone. A curved/swirl entrance for privacy - no more hassle with water stained glass doors. Dual shower heads in said shower - very decadent.
- Heated floors in the bathrooms or as already mentioned heated slab foundation
- Tinted windows - the good stuff. Saves your furnishings and makes indoor lighting pleasant.
- Ceiling fans in all rooms with wall mounted switch for fan and light combo
- Larger (8-12") baseboards really frame a nice floor (stone or wood).
- Solid core doors
- 110v outlets on every corner of the exterior
- 220v dedicated circuit for garage

So fun to spend other peoples money
