“Home, sweet home”
Many English families live in flats, but a lot of people have got their own houses. The bedrooms, the bathroom and the toilet are upstairs, on the first floor. The sitting room, the dining room, the kitchen and the hall are downstairs.
Today people in Britain buy more houses than in the past.
About two thirds of the people in England and the rest of Britain either own, or are in the process of buying, their own home.
Most others live in houses or flats that they rent.
People used to live in caves. Later they lived in castles. We live in houses or blocks of flats.
There a few different types of houses: detached, semi-detached, terraced and flats. I like socialising so my favourite one will be a flat in a huge block of flats.
England has many types of homes. In the large cities, people often live in apartments, which are called flats. In most towns, there are streets of houses joined together in long rows. They are several houses joined together and called terraced houses.
Detached: it is a house, which is not joined to another house.
Semi-detached: it is a house, which is joined to another house on one side; or two houses joined.
A terraced house is one of a row of similar houses joined together by their side walls.
The cottage is a lovely small house located outside the city, with a land plot (a garden).
A block of flats is a large building that has a lot of flats where people live, they are called “apartments” in American English.
Bungalow: it is a house, which is only on one floor, no stairs. It may be joined to another bungalow or might stand-alone.
The most popular type of home in England is semi-detached (more than 27% of all homes), closely followed by detached then terraced.
My ideal house is a private big three rooms one and some land for kitchen
garden and some fruit trees. There will not much furniture which is build in.
It doesn’t matter what house you live in, it matters how comfortable you made it, feel relaxed and safe.
