I want to try and find a good balance between security and luxury. I think an old-style farm house with an enclosed courtyard is nice. Thick perimeter walls, preferably on a hill, and good sturdy gates/doors should keep most people out while also having open space and elegance. All the out buildings around the courtyard can be used for storage, workshop and garage with solar and rainwater collectors on the roofs.

As for the land, I would like it to be on a hill, I would own the whole hill, I would like a stream on one at least side of the property. The house will be SSE facing on the south side of the hill. I will have a lovely little one acre flat garden to the west of the house, with a greenhouse, patio and jacuzzi. I will split the rest of the land up into pasture, orchard, forest, etc that I can rent out to local farmers for a bit of income and tax credits.

A traditional stone farmhouse-style homestead, with a couple of large courtyards between the wings of my house/buildings, one for relaxing/entertaining, the other for work. It will be set on at least 12 hectares of land that will contain greenhouses, orchards, and a little stream running though the land.
