house
. I want to live

closer
 to nature rather than living in a cramped metropolitan building. The
house
 would be built with woods, leaves, some modern materials and tin. There would be a big veranda in front of the
house
. Trees would be all around the
house
.
This
 would not be a very big
house
 in terms of the size of the rooms. But definitely, the total
farmhouse
 would be well over 1 acre. I would not require a very big
house
 because I won’t have different types of furniture and showpieces. I will have only necessary household appliances and furniture.
This
house
 would be located in our
