Mountain house with a hot tub. Then I don’t even need a bug out location for the upcoming civil war 👍
Plus, I can get more animals and a bigger garden.
The house with a pool if someone else would take care of the maintenance without me needing to worry about it. Otherwise the beach house, I would imagine it would be the easiest to rent out and use that income to get a house I would actually like.
Mountain house what with the rising sea levels.
Came here to say that! Better investment imo
If we’re talking Pacific Ocean and no climate change yep that one hands down. No thanks to a pool, hot tubs can be fun but really just eh after a time. Beach is life man.
In the real world I’d take the mountain house. In a fantasy world where rising sea levels aren’t a thing to worry about I’d take the beach house.
I like mountains fine but the sea calms my soul like nothing else.
the sea calms my soul
As long as you don’t look under the surface.
Oceans be scary. (but still great, that’s why I joined the navy once)
In your lifetime, rising sea levels won’t be an issue. In your kids lifetime is a different story, but we still got another 50+ years before sea levels will rise to a significant degree.
Is that true? I regularly see on the news that the climate changes faster than the scientists expected and that they have to adjust their models.
No, it’s not true. Rising sea levels are causing an increase in storms and danger which have already started taking out beach property.
Mountain house and in pretty indifferent about the hot tub. I just want to be in the mountains.
mountain house, immediately
Even without the hot tub but especially with.
Initially, I imagined it’s a cozy cottage in the middle of nowhere, but then I remembered that Switzerland exists. You could totally have some shops only a few tram stops away.
Lake house
A home in the mountains. Hot tub optional.
Mountain house with a hot tub. Climate change and rising water levels makes a beachfront house a poor idea, and nobody sane would want to live in suburbia. You won’t have to deal with a HOA in the mountains, and who doesn’t want a hot tub with a magnificent view?
Soon the mountain house might be a beach house and crowded neighborhood.
Yeah, but figurative drowning still beats the literal kind. Barely.
If utilities and internet speed and stuff are a non-issue (all things are equal), mountain house.
Otherwise, beach house.
Honestly, I like swimming, but I’d rather have a normal ass house than have to deal with pool maintenance.
Is the house with a pool in a swamp, or possibly a bog?
Because you’re a witch?
Beach! Walk in that sand. Hear those waves. Plop your drink down anywhere and it’ll stand up. Take a dip. Enjoy as much as possible until humanity ruins every drop.
Most drinks will stand up anywhere you put them
Ha, attend enough bands in lots of local bars. I can assure you, lots of drinks end up on the floor. Plopping one on the beach is way better.
Mountain House if solar/wind are feasible and I have sufficient clearing to grow my own food.
Otherwise, regular house.
I like mountains, hiking, biking, and I want to become self-sufficient where possible. And my wife wants cows and chickens, I don’t think they would do well on a beach, especially when sea levels start noticeably rising.
Beach house, without question. I spent my summers growing up on a lake. Every day I woke up to the light reflecting onto the ceiling from the waves. I fell asleep listening to waves lapping at the seawall. It’s probably the most content and relaxed I’ve ever been. Could just be nostalgia for a life (and the teenage lifestyle) and people long gone, but to live that way again when I retire is my fondest wish. Probably out of reach, but I can dream.
Lots of fucking spiders on and in a beach house, though, lol. I still have nightmares about the way you’d sometimes open the sliding glass door and three or four fat ones would immediately drop down, I guess drawn by the temperature difference? So listen, beach houses are fucking awful. None of you should want one. If you have one, you probably want to leave. I’d be willing to take it off your hands at a discount.
