If I had this home I would never go inside as I would live on this PORCH. How about you??

But not only that it would be a older home like from the 50 and 60's as the rooms are usually bigger. Plus a lot of them come with land. So every time David and I think about purchasing a home I keep saying a "older home" please as we can get so much more in it than a new home. Plus they have more character and hidden gems in them.
What type of house would you like? Would it be a newer home or older? In this home what would be your dream item? For me I would say it would be a Garden Tub but I have that in our trailer and I love it. Or would it be a Fireplace? Which I also have in this trailer.
So you see in a way this is my dream home but there is no porch of any kind and no where to plant flowers. We do have a yard but it is tiny and it is all red dirt which is horrible. Plus no grass will grow in our yards. Also there is no where to put a swing or sand box or even club house for Charlie which I hate!!
So as I was browsing online today I found homes made from Barns and I would like to see about finding a barn and turning it into a home for Charlie and I as I know it would have plenty of character and also plenty of room. I can see it being decorated in western decor which is my favorite style of furniture.
On this barn I would be able to add a wrap around porch as well as a Balcony to turn into a play area for Charlie to play on. Or we could add window seats and cushions and make it a reading area. Which would be something I would enjoy because it would give me a chance to get away from everyone. Which is something I desperately need right
If you would like to know about Barns being turned into homes check out this article I found on This Old House at: http://www.thisoldhouse.com/toh/photos/0,,20829940,00.html?xid=hi-150818-run-down-barns-turned-into-family-homes&TOH
If you do take a look let me know which Barn/Home you would chose and why.
As for Charlie he would like the white one and David would like the one with the Trailer in front of it. As for me I would like the redish brown one in the top corner. As it looks more like a home that a Barn. But each of these makes me wish I could see inside them as I would love knowing how they decorated them.
