Model Answer 1:

Thank you very much for this excellent topic that asks me to describe the house where I live in. Well, I will try to depict it for you so that you get a realistic picture of our house.

As for the question of what type of house it is - it's a three-storey brick-built house that occupies a land area of about 3,000 square feet. It is an independent house, and its colour is pearl-white. We have a garden in front of it. The house was designed by a renowned architect in our city and later constructed by a real estate developer. The building looks simple, and yet it has a classy and beautiful outlook, or at least this is my impression of the house.

The ground floor of the house has a large parking area and a visitor area. Apart from that, it has two rooms for the security guard and the driver we have. We live on the first floor of the house which has four bedrooms, a large dining and waiting room, and a moderately large kitchen. The 2nd floor of our house is resided by a tenant, and it is identical to our floor in terms of its design and structure.

This house belongs to my father, and I live in it with my family. My family consists of my parents, my grandmother, me and two of my siblings. We all live on the first floor and have rented out our 2nd floor, and they have eight family members in total.

They say that there is nothing better than your home and it is absolutely true. I like being in my house more than being anywhere else. But perhaps the people who make up my family are a far more important aspect of it than the bricks, boundary, garden and furniture that have made up the house.



Model Answer 2:

Introduction:
I currently live in a spacious apartment located in a residential area of the city. It is a comfortable and cosy living space that I absolutely adore. Before I give more details about it, I would like to thank you for this excellent topic.

What type of house/apartment it is:
My apartment is in a modern, high-rise building with 20 floors. It is one of the most luxurious apartments in the area and has a very contemporary design. The exterior of the building is made of glass panels, giving it a very sleek and stylish look.

How many rooms it has:
My apartment has three spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms, a fully-equipped kitchen, a large living room, and a balcony. The bedrooms have large windows that provide ample natural light, and the living room is very airy with a comfortable sofa set and a large television.

Who lives in the house with you:
I live with my parents in this apartment. It is just the three of us who occupy the apartment, and we are all very comfortable with the amount of space that we have.

And explain what you like most about this house/apartment:
What I like most about my apartment is the breathtaking view that I get from my balcony. I can see the entire city from here, and the view is particularly beautiful at night when the city lights up. I also love the fact that the apartment complex has a lot of facilities, such as a swimming pool, a gym, and a community hall. These facilities are very convenient and make our lives much easier. Additionally, the apartment is in a very safe and secure area, which is another great thing about it.
