Where would you live?

So, everyone knows, pretty much, that housing in ESO is a highly requested feature and something a lot of ES fans want to see in ESO. So, I want to ask, where/how would you live?

Feel free to put a description of where you would live and how below. Admins are also welcome to take part in the discussion :P

For me, I don't need a castle or tons of land to live happily, I would be just fine living in a medium sized farm house in Skyrim, somewhere in Whiterun, either where Riverwood is/will be or in the northern reaches of Whiterun going into The Pale section of Skyrim, but still close to Whiterun. If I could, I would happily just keep a family in my medium sized farm house, and raise animals and tend to crops on my off time when I am not out adventuring, slaying monsters, or battling Daedric princes.

I want to live in a super epic castle with servants that obey my every desire, and a giant vault where I can stash my oceans of wealth and loot.

    Along with what I said above, since I can't edit my post, I also think it would be quite humorous if Molag Bal found out that the hero that slayed him, in fact, was just a farmer that raises cows and sells vegetables at a local market.

    I always liked this themed type of house in the country. I think its Bavarian style but don't hold me to that.

    Man, I had houses in Ultima Online nearly fifteen years ago, originally two of them tucked under trees just outside of town. Then, much later you could design your own houses, and I had those too, and would always wait until there was an open spot in the woods or by the sea, to place a house.

    Ultima Online opened up vast tracks of flat green lawn for tract housing, but I never would have any of that even if I could have a bigger house. I always wanted a tree, or trees, and a dirt road nearby was a real treat. See, people would ride by and see your house, and they could leave notes on your billboard or in a notebook you'd leave for the purpose.

    Give me good housing here and I'll keep an account a LOT longer.

    I'd want a place in the city for the convenience factor. Having said that, I'd actually be just fine with any of the options given. The castle would be a bit much, but maybe for guild housing.

    Anyone happen to know a good real-estate agent in Oblivion? Tried that Sheo guy once, but all his offers seem to come with a catch and were kinda cheesy.

    @Nazon_Katts the only one I know of is Sheo sadly, but I hear that if you give him a hundred wheels of cheese, some string, and a cabbage, he might just give you his kingdom, or at least a large castle in it.

    I ask why wouldn't you want the epic option. Its like saying hey do you want awesome, or everything less than awesome. In all seriousness though it is more about WHERE this house is located, and I would want something secluded ideally. Whether a distant island, oblivion plane, telvanni mushroom tower, High Rock castle, whatever... there's just lots of cool options for this. Yep, I'm going Castle.

    @dodgehopper_ESO well thats the beauty of the openness of this pool, you pick what type of house you want and where you want it to be located and how it works.

    For me, I picked a farm because I imagine living a simple life, not needing big fancy things to be happy, necessarily.

    I'd pick a house in the city. I mean, in the countryside, every living thing (and some dead) will attack you on sight. That would get tiresome after a while.

    I would love a farm especially if they added farming to the game even if it's like hearth fire in that you plant a few plants in holes and check back every few days for yummies.

    Or even the ability to raise live stock. Better than farming crabs for leather plus you get meats for more nom noms.
