Winnings : Lets say you have won at least £5m, or even Euro Millions. Either way you have enough to have the home of your dreams.
Pics of potential furnishings/syles etc if you wish.
I've always fancied a fancy library - Like the ones featured in either Layer Cake and Hellboy:
Can't find pics of either of them, I'm sure most will know what they're like.
Something like this though:

Would have a green and red one of these in my library too:

And a couple of Chesterfields:

I'd also have a home cinema room similar to this:
http://www.home-cinema-installers-london.co.uk/home-cinema-installers.jpg
Probably have all my DVD's along the walls too.
Then I'd have my music room (listening not playing)
That would just be a room with high ceilings and a few sofas/armchairs. No tv.
Probably have a few fish tanks around the house too.
Everything else would be as you have in most houses, just always fancied those 3 rooms!
So, what would everyone else have?

2 bedroom ex-council and bank the rest while still working.
I'd really get one of these to start with then take it from there.

I'd maybe go for an ex mobility automatic megane convertible tbh.
That electronichouse site is worth a look, although that one I posted is somewhere above $250k.

I'd buy a nice little olde worlde cottage or farmhouse somewhere out in the sticks. Not too far from town mind, but far enough away to be peaceful.
Maybe spend half a million making sure I got a wedge of land with it.
Stick most of the rest in the bank to live off and get some fancy cars

We've already got a cellar. Has general crap stored down there along with bikes, some gym equipment and loads of wine and beer
Next door neighbours had their cellar done up a bit and put a pool table, dart board etc. down there.
