Wall of glass. GENERAL NOTE FOR ALL OF THE EXTERIOR LOOK/FEEL IMAGES: I don't care too much about the exterior look per se and am not looking for a home that is an art piece or that is making some sort of statement. Instead, the exteriors I'm drawn to are ones that support lifestyle aspects of the home that are very important to me: abundant natural light; feeling connecting to the outside world when inside by easily being able to see greenery/small animals/activity; reducing barriers between being inside and outside. I tend to spend a *lot* of time at my computer and it's easy for me to fall into hermit mode, so a home that creates an on-ramp to the outside world and minimizes the marginal inertia switching cost of engaging outside of my own headspace is something that is super important for my long-term well-being because it helps balance out some tendencies that can be unhealthy when taken to the extreme
