Everyone's spaces sound nice. I think mine would be a lot like Jan's, but carefully placed to have excellent views (I'd like a lake or large river to one side, mountains and forest to another, and maybe some kids playing with a herd of cats out the third side. Yes, at least three of my walls will have windows). I don't know where I would have to move to, but I'm sure my dream location is out there somewhere.

Tothill, look into Dri-core subfloor, or something equivalent. It gives a bit of cushion and warmth (plywood instead of concrete), and protects flooring in case of a flood. I lived in a basement suite where they had installed it, and it made the floor much nicer to walk on.
