Dream House

You won the lottery and took off to a distant location for a couple years, during which time you used your winnings to build your dream house.

A friend has come to visit you, and you give them the grand tour. What kind of house did you build? Is it a tree house? Underground? Underwater? A castle? Show them around and point out all the best features of the place.
