Friend is buying new house and she asked me to make a list of things I think the house absolutely should have?

such as a floor drain in the basement, no-wax floors, storm windows etc... I am not real sure why she asked me, it doesn't matter, but for the life of me I can't come up with much more than the things I already mentioned!! Help with some other suggestions please??Friend is buying new house and she asked me to make a list of things I think the house absolutely should have?
Modern electrical and plumbing.


Recent furnace and A/C


Adequate Insulation


Fenced yard


Landscaping (to include trees)


Modern windows, multipane w/low e coating


Carpeting/floor coverings/finished floors


Finished basement


Garage (preferably two car with room for work bench/storage)


Paved driveway and walks


Drive in access to the yard(s)


Appliances that work and not dated by color or design

Washer and dryer, or at least the hookups (adding plumbing is expensive)


Solid front door, not hollow


Plenty of good insulation in walls and attic


Plenty of closet space, all over!
Is she building the house? If so, I like lots of built in shelves, heated floors, high-efficiency heating/cooling, upgraded countertops, sunlights, on-demand water heater, vaulted ceilings....I guess the list could go on forever.
Assuming you want to make some money of the purchase, I would recommend buying a 3 bedroom and 2 bath minimum house. Anything smaller will be tougher to sell. Also, please remember that the most important feature of a home is its location.
