It would be just like Stately Wayne Manor from the 1966 Adam West Batman series, right down to the flip up Shakespeare head and Batcave.
My dream mansion would have a dark red door and a black knocker. The entrance room would have a big chandelier with maroom walls and gold accents. There would be a double staircase in the front hall going up to the second floor where three different halls would split off of the staircase. There would be 5 bedrooms all with a different ,but no childish themes. There would be a grand piano in the living room and a big red brick fireplace. Gold and light red accents in the living room with dark red walls. The kitchen would be big but a little brighter. White walls with yellow, red and blue flowers as the wallpaper. Marble countertop and glass lights hanging in the center of the kitchen over a countertop. The basement would be gold and red striped with a dark brown rap around couch and a big screen TV next to a mini bar. There would be a big backyard with a fountain and bunches of flowers. And for the final touch, a white mailbox with a painting of red roses.
I cannot think of anything better than this in America-this covers all the requirements.
Four of the most fascinating acres at Biltmore Estate are all under one roof. America's largest home boasts 250 rooms, 65 fireplaces, an indoor pool, bowling alley, priceless art and antiques.
I would have a 8000 square foot house, with an in-ground tiled swimming pool. The pool would include at one end a hot tub. There would be a big deck, partially covered so I could still cook outside even if it was raining. The deck would connect the house to the pool area. I would have a large grill station and an outdoor kitchen complete with running water.
I would want the house contemporary in design but not too "modern". It would have lots of big windows, 4 bedrooms with a big bath in each, with jacuzzi tubs and glass-block sided showers with multiple shower jets. All the baths would be done in different colored marble.
I'd have a huge kitchen with hanging pot racks and all the gourmet gadgets and stainless steel appliances. I would have granite countertops, wine storage (at the proper temperature of course) and a big island which would sit 6. Lots of room for cookbooks, a TV in the kitchen, a Sub Zero fridge, and a large 6 burner topped stove with 2 ovens. There would be a large country style table for informal meals, and a dining room with additional storage and a buffet for all my dinnerware and table linens. I would want the dining table to be more traditional, probably teak wood or maybe bamboo.
Adjacent to the big kitchen would be the "family" room, with a large flat screen HDTV and all the storage for CD's, TIVO, DVD recorder/player, etc. Lots of seating where everyone could put their feet up and watch TV.
I would like it to be richly colored, warm and inviting. Also would have a large home office with state of the art PC, laptop, games and the like. I would also like a game room with a pool table, pin ball machine, other type video games, darts and different board games with a big table to play games on.
I would have a housekeeper who kept everything clean and do the laundry. (She would do windows, too!) In the 4 car garage would be all the tools one would ever need, neatly stored. The yard would be beautiful bermuda grass, kept manicured by my gardner, who would also help prune, weed and otherwise keep the yard looking good year-round. I would have lots of potted plants and containers with lovely blooming flowers, nice fruit trees and some magnolias. I would have tons of herbs planted in pots on my deck so I could use them in cooking.
Nice fantasy, but gotta get back to work!
