This question was suddenly popped out in my head. I wonder if "dream" is a noun and verb (followed by the definition in my dictionary (hope it has a quality enough) ) why it is widely used as "the dream house/home" not "the dreaming house/home" because dreaming is an adjective or be like that just because it is a compound noun?
Thanks in advance 🙂

"Dream" is indeed a noun used as a modifier: what kind of home? a dream home, one that might figure in your dreams.
"A dreaming home" (which does not exist as a set expression) would mean something different.
