The focus seems sharpest on the tree, which I trust is not the "special home" that the title refers to. The tree branch blocks my view of the top part of the house, which seems to be the most prominent architectural feature. I think that this photograph might have been better if it was taken from a different perspective; as it is I see a lot of angles, but I don't really feel like I know what the house looks like.
The concept of this image is very good and I'm surprised no one else thought of it. But the image seems flat and taken from an uninteresting perspective. Unsure what angle it should be taken at but I think you would find you would like it better if you tried photographing it from different angles. I'd also use a little SUBTLE dodge and burn to add more texture to the image and saturate the colors more. I'd definitely clone out whatever that thing sticking up from the front yard in the foreground. It detracts from your concept.
Gorgeous house! Nice placement of everything in the photo. It might be a little more interesting if it weren't an overcast day. Good clarity and detail.
