Am I being too picky in finding a home?

It looks all pretty in the pictures till you actually go see it and you feel like you are living in a large studio apartment.
There are also the semi-round rooms. Who the heck has round furniture. It just becomes a waste of space.
That’s what I want! Really huge living areas with lots of wasted space to heat or cool. Minimal closets. Excessive toilets to clean, small kitchens but really pretty, 15 feet high ceilings so its warm and cozy above my head in the winter, and oh, so easy to change the lights or clean the window, but heck my 8 foot basketball friends or the olympic gymnastic team would love it.
I just want to know, does anyone make practical homes any more? One that I can cook in, has two bathrooms at the most, has walls separating rooms, regular shaped, where I don’t need a 12 foot ladder to change or clean anything, and I’m not paying an arm and a leg to heat a room because heat rises and I won’t need to stand on a ladder to get warm. You can go see a home that is 1600 square feet and end up with only actually 1000 square feet of actual living space. But hey, you can clog 3 toilets before you feel you need to call the plumber because you have the ½ toilet.
Am I being too picky?
