Humans have always been dreaming of living in a luxurious house and accordingly my dream is also similar to the other human beings. I want to live in a large and luxurious house as I do not want experience any challenge with my living at home.

The house should be a duplex building with spacious rooms and corridors. There should be ample space for movement after placing the furniture. Besides, the rooms need to be well ventilated and south facing is preferable. Generally, the south-faced houses have natural light and air supply. So, one does not need to spend more bucks after electricity or arrangement for artificial air coolers. Besides, the houses should also contain several bedrooms. The living room needs to be spacious as I have to place a wide range of furniture than the regular living rooms in the tiny apartments. Besides, the house should have sufficient numbers of bathrooms with modern fittings and facilities. I would like to have a balcony with my bedroom facing the south side from where I could smell the fragrance from the garden. At the night times, I will place a chair on the balcony to enjoy the night views, especially the moonlit nights. 

Though I love rural regions than the urban areas for a tranquil environment, I wish to have the house at the corner of an urban street. I chose to live in a corner of the city for several reasons. First, such corner areas are usually free of the bustle of the cities. Since there are few crowds the noise level remains at a minimum level that is pleasant. Secondly, the cities are blessed with modern facilities which are unavailable in the rural areas. The connections of the internet or large shopping malls or standard groceries are not available. But I need those to lead my life. Generally, the rural areas are quiet and I will create such an environment around my house. But if the house is in the centre or middle of any street, it is impossible to bring the rural flavour inside the house. If I surround the house with foliage and gardens, it will look like a large house in the rural areas. Moreover, I will have access to the necessary places and public transportation facilities which are also rare in the rural areas.

The house should have all the modern amenities and facilities. It should have a telephone connection to connect with the rest of the world in line with my cellular phone. Besides, internet connection with satellite television network is a must. I usually do not watch television but my parents do. For them, I need to satellite television network. The house should also have a fine garage to keep my Porsche 911 (though older, the car is of great use) with me. A small driveway is a plus with the garage. The doors should be made with the finest woods while the windows would be made of Thai glass window without any grills or restrictions. The roof of the house should also be large and I intend to plant some small plants on the rooftop garden. Besides, the entire building should have the opportunity to cover with small plants that go attached to the walls. The other issues like the fittings, tiles and necessary elements in the kitchen and bathrooms should be of the top class.

I generally prefer to live in a large house for its benefits. I have been born and brought up into a large house and being a nuclear family we did not have many family members except the three of us (my parents and me). So, I had ample spaces to move on inside the house and play around the day. So, the habit of living in a large house has been formed since my early childhood. I cannot live in small apartments and those appear like a cage to me. Breathing becomes difficult (literally). Besides, I also need a quiet place to live in. So, I need a large house with all the available facilities of the modern days and at the same time, it should be peaceful. Neither my parents nor I prefer noise and do not make so as well. A silent environment in a large house is the most desired thing for me and my family.

I do not dream of living in houses which are large. Rather I need a place where I can live with peace of my mind. In fact, I need a small house to live in. Thank you for your nice question and I am happy to let you all know about it.

I do not have any problem with the house space but the interior needs to be beautiful. To be frank, I do not need a swimming pool inside my bedroom but I need enough space to place my bookshelf. I do not need a house that will look striking from a mile away, rather I need my place should be well decorated with necessary furniture and other stuff. Moreover, I need a personal space to read books or listening music or enjoying movies.

I do not love hustle bustle of city life but I have no alternatives left. I will try utmost to get the house at a corner of the city so that I am not disturbed. I do not need any scenic location for my house. Rather I need a calm and quiet place for living. On the other side, the location needs to be filled with foliage. I love trees and will create some space for them too. So, the location needs to be near nature. Finding such a place is really difficult in Thailand. Almost all the open lands have been filled and commercial structures have been constructed on the spaces. Hence, I am in search of such a place to build my house.

This is a modern age and certainly, I expect some modern facilities for the house. First of all, the house should be well ventilated. It should come with larger windows. The tiles and other necessary fittings should be of high standard. Moreover, the house should have access to continuous civic facilities like gas, water and electricity supply. I also need alternative backups for the facilities lest I do not need to suffer for any of those when there will be an unexpected interruption. I need another facility for my house- the communication system needs to be improved.

I want to live in such a house for many reasons. I work for a multinational corporation and need to remain busy round the day. Moreover, I need to plan and execute some strategic decisions. So, I need a comfortable place to think over the matters. It is my study which I think as the best place for such purposes. If I get the required environment, I would be able to make the plans and visualise their implementation process clearly. Moreover, such a house is necessary for a healthy living too. Therefore, I want to live there.

What it is like?, and Where it would be?

I do not wish to live in big accommodation, because spending much on the maintenance and upkeep of the property is not a prudent approach. Moreover, I will buy a house in the countryside with a large terrace and a swimming pool.

For electricity supply, I will opt for renewable energy, I would install panels on the roof to tap solar energy. Apart from this, I would make sufficient arrangements to do rainwater harvesting.

Another reason for owning a big house is to have a spacious kitchen. As I am a connoisseur of food, cooking is my passion. During my free time, I would cook numerous mouth-watering delicacies to pamper the appetite of my family members.

Furthermore, I will have a big classroom in my house, where I will impart training to the children from a humble background. I aim to bring a paradigm shift in their attitude and lead their lives towards an impressive growth trajectory.

I would love to live in an apartment. Since I live in a big city, it’s probably more convenient to buy a condo in a building complex.

I prefer a cozy place, so, I would expect it to be not too big – about 90 to 100 square meters – with 2 bedrooms and 2 balconies. In my opinion, this size is perfect for a small family of parents and one child. When it comes to cleaning the house, you wouldn’t feel discouraged by all the chores you have to do.

It would be great if my apartment overlooked [1] a river or bridge, and it should be located on a high floor like the 10th or above. As a person who loves color and nature, I would decorate my house with a lot of paintings and plants. I would make a hanging garden in one of my balconies [2] and put small chairs and tables out, so that I could sit there and enjoy my small garden. I would use yellow -tinted bulbs and lamps all over the apartment to make it cozier.

If I get the chance [1], I would love to make my dream apartment become a reality as soon as possible, because I have always wanted to move out of my parents house. Owning an apartment would allow me to do whatever I want, whenever I want.

 Follow up Questions

1. Do most Indian people live in an apartment or house?
I think it depends on the region they are living in. In most of the big cities, like the metropolitan cities, people live in apartments, as there is a scarcity of land in such places and to accommodate the ever-increasing population, there are more and more apartment buildings being built. However, in the small cities, towns and the countryside, we can find people mostly living in houses, rather than apartments.
