Poll results: Say bye-bye to these trends ...

Stainless steel and granite kitchens are the trend that Yourhomers would most like to leave in the last decade, according to last week's poll. (Read the full story here).

The runner-up in our most hated trends was Tuscan-themed spaces, with 29 per cent to the kitchen's 34 per cent.

Two-storey family rooms, 14 per cent, mismatched upholstery, 11 per cent, and white stair risers, 6 per cent, rounded out the list. The remaining 6 per cent said none of the above.

Now that I've got a handle on what you don't like, I want to hear about what you do like! Specifically, what your must haves are when you're looking for a home. Do you crave multiple parking spots? Energy efficiency? A soaker tub (yes, please!)? Check out our top 10 list and cast your vote in the front page poll.
