Yes! Big windows, high ceilings, not sleeping on the ground floor; I like rooms, and buildings, that aren't "boxy", that have a sense of accretion and labyrinthine history. I love rooms that have inset sections of wall, or corners to hide in; I love rooms with deep windowsills, just short of inconveniently high off the ground, so I can pile up cushions and draw the curtains and hide in the sunlight with a book.

I agree entirely about location; in terms of inhabitants, I tend to be much more comfortable living with people it's okay for me to ask for care from - people who won't be upset/dismayed to find me immobile and horizontal on the kitchen floor, for example, but will be okay with getting me a glass of water and meds I request and then leaving me to get on with it (or maybe staying in the room to do their own things, but not making a big deal out of aforementioned horizontal & immobile). Being able to cook with or for people is a really big deal for me; feeding people is super-important. Strongly agreed on the boundaries front.

-- oh, yes, and sloping ceilings! And topography, preferably with igneous bedrock. I grew up in a swamp (seriously: Cambridge, UK), but home is the Austrian Alps (in an ancestral sense), and having serious topography on the horizon just-- it just. Suddenly things are more right.
