[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Larger houses allow/require living differently. I like a larger house for its ability to allow rooms to create very different moods as my needs require. The study is for working, the library is for reading, the bedrooms are for sleep and sex, etc. In the right person, being able to move around a large house is liberating. It also makes it easier to be on different schedule than other HH members. I'm an insomniac who loves to take my early morning coffee in a large windowed room with views of the flora and fauna and I like being able to do this without waking everyone else up. [/quote]

This describes well some of the things I love about our very large house.  Like others have said, I also really appreciate having the space to host large gatherings and have room for out of towners to stay with us.  The space allowed my mom to stay with us for with us 3-4 months every year in perfect harmony, and the close relationship she formed with my kids during those years is something they and my husband and I will always cherish.  We lost her this year, and it's really helping a lot with the grieving process right now.

I don't love the higher energy bills and the need for house and garden help, but once we retire I will really like having space to grow vegetables and take on other projects that the extra yard area will allow.  [/quote]
