As you come in through the front door you find yourself in a large hall
with a stand for hats, coats and umbrellas. There are two built-in closets in the
hall too. We use them as utility rooms. One of them is just for a washing
machine and a freezer. The other, big enough to walk in, is for household things
and garden tools. My mother is a fantastic gardener, you know. We have a
wonderful garden in the country, full of fruit trees, beautiful roses and other
flowers.
One of the doors on the right of the hall leads into the living room. This
room faces south, so it is very sunny. The dominant feature in the room is a
large table with chairs around it. The other essentials are two big sofas with soft
cushions and plants – lots of large, healthy green plants. Of course, there is a TV
set and a music centre there. It is the room where we can entertain and relax.
To the left is my bedroom which I also use as a study. It has a large
window, a wardrobe, a sofa and a desk with a chair. There are posters with my
favourite music groups on the walls. My parents’ bedroom adjoins my room. At
the end of the hall there is a bathroom and next to it is a lavatory. A door on the
right leads into the kitchen. We also use it as a dining-room. In the kitchen the
floor is covered with linoleum. The flooring is parquet in all the rooms. In the
bathroom and lavatory both the floor and the walls are tiled.
Our flat is modern and spacious. We keep it clean. The living room has a
high ceiling. The bedrooms in the flat are papered. There are all modern
conveniences in the house such as electricity, gas, central heating, cold and hot
running water. There is also a chute in the house.
There is another thing that I like about the house – its location. Buses and
trolleybuses run every ten minutes and it never takes me more than 20 minutes
to get to the University.
