My house 2

 

I’m going to tell you something about my house. I live in an independent house. It stands on a 1,200 square yard plot. There are 12 rooms in my house. They are: four bedrooms, one kitchen, four bathrooms, one study, one store room, and one living room. I have two floors. My house also has a garage. We have a gym in the basement. We have blue drapes on all our windows. There’s also a front yard with a beautiful lawn and lots of flowers. My son has his playroom in the attic. In the rainy season there are lots of mosquitoes in my house. We have LED lights in our house because they are very bright.

There is a lot of furniture in my house. We have tables, chairs, sofas, beds, cupboards, cabinets, and dressing tables. Like I said, we have blue drapes. Our carpets are red and we have white bedcovers on our beds. All our furniture is brown.
