+ A very sketchy artists impression of my house.
+ The lovely view across the city, out to the water and hills. I especially like watching the weather come in slowly over the city. It's a shame being so far up the hill hinders bicycle riding, but it sure is pretty from up here.
+ Its cute, green, leafy exterior.
+ The way that it always feels like it's air conditioned even on the hottest days.
+ Having so much room - room enough for a nursery and a spare room and a dining table and a big kitchen and an office, dreamy!
+ The big lead light window above my desk.
+ Shiny wooden floors that are good for sliding around on in socks (don't worry, I'm not doing any of that while in my current condition!).
+ Lovely natural light (skylights!).
+ Having a big comfy bathtub.
+ Its proximity to the city - a five minute walk to the park, the shops & the CBD (it feels funny saying that Launceston has one of those - it's so little!).
+ The verandah out front which houses our second couch - a nice spot for afternoon reading while watching over the city - when my grandma stayed with us, she spent a lot of time sitting on it in the sunshine reading her newspaper with one of our cats beside her and we'd hear her asking "what do you think, puss?".
+ The fact that sometimes people walking by stop and take its picture.
What are your favourite things about your abode?
your doodle is amazing! and i absolutely love everything about your house as well :) my favourite thing about my house is that from the outside, it looks like a small, low-roofed bungalow but once you go inside it practically transforms into a tall, wide-spaced semi-antique, cozy home! x

ReplyDeleteI just wish my house, especially my bedroom, had more natural light :( I can't get any good pics inside

Haha, oh Bianca... I love your comment about sliding in socks. :) I adore your blog, as you've known for a long time. I love your sketch of your home!!! I can't wait to visit my cousins that live near you, because then I'm going to hit you up and visit you and visit your gorgeous house, and meet your baby!
ReplyDeleteDude, that is one cute house! I love that ours ins't permanent. It isn't perfect (far far far from that) but by sucking it up and stopping here for a while we will be able to afford our very own home. With walls we can paint and everything.
ReplyDeleteThat doodle is amazing. :D Your house sounds so lovely. I love little houses with a lot of charm and yours has just that. Skylights and a big bathtub... Heavenly.
ReplyDelete<3 Lovely and fresh, as always! Pretty doodle and I agree, it is so important to have natural light!

I love your sketch,makes me want to try and draw something!
ReplyDeleteThe thing i like the most in my house is the light,crossing every room all day and the little terrace,still a work in progress but a great place to chill and get a little sun!
my favourite thing is our cubby-like stairs to get to the bedroom and my garden - best place to be in summer :)
