    what would it be?

    I'd buy an extra long bath.
    I'm 5'10.
    Having a longer length bath would result in no more tossing up between having cold knees or cold boobs in the bath.

    My house can't fit anymore extravagant things in it, but if it could....

    ....spiral wooden staircase with slide option. Exiting into a retractable floor/swimming pool.

    One of those high-tech Japanese toilets! Those were amazing, and I've always wanted one for my own house!

    A band saw, a 2x72 belt grinder, a power hammer and a bridgeport vertical mill.

    I'd love the crap out of a savage workshop

    A ceiling suspended fireplace. One that burns real logs - none of those 'flame effect' ones.
    Like this one: www.archiproducts.com/en/products/62499/central-hanging-steel-fireplace-antefocus-focus.html
    Or this: www.archiproducts.com/en/products/62620/gyrofocus-open-central-hanging-fireplace-gyrofocus-focus.html

    Real. Imagine taking your Elephant down to the park for a walk. That'd be so cool.

    I dont even pay basketball. But having a full basketball court in your house is ****ing impressive. Rev Run from Run DMC has one and it looks so cool

    Or a full on cinema in your house is pretty good

    I've always really wanted one of those dyson hand-dryers, they just work so well.

    Also a proper big shower with fierce water pressure.
