Happy New Year everyone! I just wached the hgtv program showing off my soon to be home.I think this house has lot’s of great things going for it however, where is the outdoor grill? Do people grill out in Flordia? I seen them shopping on the tv program and they looked like they were purchasing grilling tools but I can’t see anywhere on the tour that features an outdoor grill area/outdoor kitchen. I was also wondering about all the noise as the other homes around it are being built. I plan to enter and hopefully win however I don’t know that this is the best thought out home. If we are going to call it a DREAM HOME we do need some of the things Katie 1 talked about.
My husband and I have always dreamed of moving to Islamorada and living in a relaxing beach home. It has been the topic of many discussions throughout our nearly 20 years of marriage. As we watched the dream home video it was as though we could reach out and touch our dream. We loved the views, the colors and the convenient dock location. It would go far beyond my wildest dreams to be able to give this home to my husband for our 20th Anniversary that is coming up on March 26. He has worked so very hard to support our family, but he dreams of fly-fishing out in the clear blue waters and waking up to the sound of the ocean. I wish that I could give him his dream, because he has given so much of himself for our family. I know that our chances of winning are slim, but that’s the nice thing about dreams, they give you hope! Even if we don’t win the home, I know how lucky I am to have such an incredible husband and friend! That in itself is a dream come true!
Islamorada is calling my family’s name. We would love it!
That is a beautiful house. My husband and I are looking for one since we live in a small apartment. We really need that house. We have been tring to remodel it but it still is not…. well good. It is a beautiful house and we really, really,need it and we hope we win it.
That home is perfect for us! In our family there are two girls of 6 and 11 years old. And then there is my husband and I. That house is perfect.
That house has the perfect location.It is pppppppppppppeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrfffffffffeeeecccttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I Love the house, I have Lupus and live in new england, the weather is very hard on me and I visited Florida for the first time and I couldn’t believe how much better I felt and I was able to swim in the water because it was so warm. I have not been able to go to the beach with my children because I can not walk after being there for a half hour. Florida was the best place for this years house!!!!!!!!!
I would’nt change a thing on the hgtv 2008 dream home! And what a dream home it is! I would like to thank everyone and all in person whom has made our dream home possible. It will definately be a wonderful meeting ground for all of our family and friends. Especially for my husband and his eastcoast family. He’s finally going to be able to see his biological father after 30yrs. of not knowing him. That will all change and we look forward to meeting up with the rest of our newly found family. We also look forward to all of the great activities that Islamorada, Fl. has to offer. Coming from Hawaii we’re not afraid of the ocean water! Aloha to all!
I have been registering every day for the 2008 Dream Home. My husband and I have not been dealt a very good financial situation throughout our twelve years of marriage, but we would absolutely be in heaven to win this Dream Home. My children dream of having a house “with an upstairs” as they always say. The house is perfect! The location is perfect! I would not change a thing about this home or the location. What a wonderful home this will make some deserving family (hopefully, mine if God blesses us to be the lucky winners!) If not, a warm blessing to the family that is so fortunate to win this DREAM COME TRUE!
Please let me win this dream house,,I have all ways loved this place
