MY FUTURE HOUSE, part III
SECOND FLOOR

The house will be a new build with a classic Gothic/Victorian mansion facade.  It will be situated near a wood, and also on the shores of a Lake.  I am able to be this picky because I will have won $250 million in the lottery.

Above you see the master bedroom, walk-in closet and bath; the boys’ room (both young and old); the children’s bath; the guest bedroom; the music room; the library; the games room.
