What does your dream home look like?

My dream house would be a home where I can relax myself and really enjoy the day.
An indoor sauna , pool, greenery with garden in my backyard so that my family will eat organic foods without fertilizer. A place like tagaytay, bulacan or bicol with acre lot is best for my family.
Basketball court for my husband and huge garden in front.
There I would look at the mountains and smile and cook for my family and friends.
Serenity, peace and health to enjoy is my dream.
