I want it because that's what I grew up with. I loved everything about it. We had a 3 bedroom house with living room and kitchen and 2 car garage. In the garage my dad had a workbench with a bunch of tools and a radial saw. He added on a 20x30ft family room which he mostly built. He built it to be somewhat sound proof because he played drums, bass, and guitar semi professionally.
Because it was opposite side of the house from his bedroom and because it was semi-soundproof my sister and I could have slumber parties with 4-8 friends over and be as loud as we wanted.
Why wouldn't I want that again?
I loved being able to be loud. To watch an action movie at 2am . My dad's stereo had 8 sets of speakers floor to ceiling. Him and my mom would host an 80 person New Years Eve party every other year.
Ever since I moved out 30 yrs ago I've lived in nothing but apartments where I mostly have to tiptoe to not annoy the neighbors. Can't have a dog. Can't have a workbench with tools. Can't have more than 2-4 guests over at once. Have to watch TV with headphones on if I want any volume.
I get the desire to live downtown near other things but I also get the desire to own a single family detached house. They're awesome!
