Raised dishwasher to eliminate/minimize bending down to load and unload.

Gas and electric at all appliance locations....plus on the lanai.

Our lanai is kicked out an extra 5 feet in width. We like that a lot. Also, an expanded garage. I wanted a garage with the extra golf cart space, but we wound up with the expanded garage. It's kicked out 5 feet in width, and 4 feet in length. Actually plenty of room for us, even though it isn't what I originally desired.
From the street, it looks like the other 50,000 Gardenias. But we like it. And the other 50,000 Gardenias. We like them too.

Wine cellar. Holds about 1000 bottles and is temperature and humidity controlled. Air conditioned room 12 X 20 over the garage. With lights, outlets, ceiling fans.

So a wine attic…

Priceless.

What unusual feature does your home have that make it unique?

Funny you should say that I have a business acquaintance in Indiana that travels a lot to Alaska and they brought back I think a 20 ft Indian totem pole and put it in there living room around a small fountain with water and bubbling. Please post a few pictures I'd love to see it

So nice
 
To see so many people with a lot of extra money to spend. I do not begrudge for being successful in your life. But I truly hope you're spreading it around with charity and there still are so many homeless and so many without enough food in their lives. No I'm not so called liberal nut Job just someone who cares. So my question would be what have you done to help the world this year?

Raised
 
That's something I always wish kitchen designers would have thought of to help us seniors. I also have always thought that microwave should be on the counter. But of course none of us ever have enough counter space

I wouldn't call you a "liberal nut job", but I find it interesting that you have no problems "suggesting" how others spend their money.
