My husband and I have been looking at property from Connecticut to Florida as a place to relocate. I did research on the Chinese drywall issue in certain areas of the States, and it's concerning. I know the world is flat, there is trade etc. But we do have choices. Back to the Dream House. . . I heard something about a dog house? I have a Great Dane who loves the snow. If you haven't figured it out, I'm from Alaska, and the dog house we have isn't an igloo (which if it were would be 100% green ha ha).

There is a wide range of audience to appeal to. The green home it'self was not the traditional New England cottage, but had modern flair and appeal to those that are truly "green".

HGTV can you update the wallpaper to something more Vermontish? I'm quite comfortable with mountains and snow.
