I live in a semi-dettached house with a garden and a patio with a barbeque and a lot of flowers. On the ground floor there’s a living-room, a kitchen, a bedroom and a toilet.

On the second floor there are two bedrooms with very big balconies, a laundry and two bathrooms. The garage is in the cellar.

I live on a flat on the third floor. My house has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living-room, a big balcony, a kitchen and a larder. It’s very light but it’s hot in the summer. There is a car park under the building.
