It is pretty straightforward, I want to live in a place that was built to function as something else. I had a friend that came from a very large family and they bought an old school house so that each of the kids could have their own space and plenty of storage for their belongings. I envied the idea, the seemingly unlimited space and openness to do whatever you want with it. I would consider a schoolhouse, office building, warehouse, etc... @SimplyMeKristin
