Haven. It's a small 3 x 1 house, kit home, mostly native plants, and my haven from work and every day life. It's my safe haven, my kitties are there, my Mum, my books & computer, fifty thousand wild birds that bum seed and water from us and poop over the paving and plastic outdoor table and chairs, and I love being home.I think I see a pattern...

Is the pattern like this?
Mine is called The Prickle Farm. Husband named it after a radio show that he enjoyed listening to. It is only a 2acre block and there are some patches of bindi-eye ( very few now and all the prickly pear is gone). A lot of our official correspondence has that name as part of the address.

Did you mean this documentary I'm now watching:

Twelve oaks (Gone with the wind) – There were 12 oak trees in front of it.
Satis House (Great expectations) – Means Enough House, whoever had this house, could want nothing else.
Tara (Gone with the wind) – Scarlett’s home.
Pemberley (Pride and prejudice) – Darcy’s masion.
etc.
Would you like to name your own properties?
I named my small villa “The September Wattle”, because wattle is in the street name, 9 is the unit number, I was born in September, and the first day of September is Australia’s Wattle Day. :p
