What does your dream home look like? Is it four walls of rent-free bliss? Does it have a tree outside each window that sprouts crisp $100 bills from its branches? Funny, we have the same dream. But HGTV is taking the “dream home” concept one step further and offering one lucky viewer a spankin’-new, custom-designed, fully furnished home in idyllic Islamorada.

We know, we know -- it does sound too good to be true, but last year’s excited winner sure didn’t look like a hoax, and in 2008 that could be you. The contest is open for entries until February 19, so log on to www.HGTV.com for your chance to move into that dee-luxe house on the bay. But if you save your dreams for the Sealy Posturepedic, you can still tour the HGTV dream house. Beginning today, you can tour and gush over the state-of-the-art kitchen, sport-fishing room, and fully loaded GMC Yukon hybrid parked in the driveway.
