For me, the perfect house is a
cottage. It is in the suburbs. It has
got three bedrooms. The cottage
has got a big kitchen and it is very
warm and cosy. A cottage is the
perfect house because it is in a nice
neighbourhood and the area is
peaceful.

Exercise 1
Hi! I’m James and I live in a semi-detached house in a nice quiet neighbourhood. It’s not a new house, but it has everything my family and I need. Oh, and we also
have two dogs. There are two floors and an attic in our house. The bedrooms and bathrooms are upstairs. Then, there’s the living room, dining room and kitchen
downstairs. We changed the kitchen a few months ago. And we have a smart dishwasher, fridge and oven. Isn’t that cool? I guess you could say that my family and I
all worry about the environment. We also have a big backyard where our dogs can play and have fun. As you see, our house isn’t luxurious, but it certainly is very
comfortable.

Exercise 2
Matt Cruise: Good afternoon, Mrs Dorothy. I’m Matt Cruise. We arranged a visit to an eco-friendly flat here in the city centre. Am I correct?
Mrs Dorothy: Good afternoon. That’s right. I’m really excited! I can’t wait to move to the city.
Matt Cruise: Okay, so let me just check if it’s the perfect flat for you.
Mrs Dorothy: Well, it’s in the city centre which is a good start. How big is the kitchen?
Matt Cruise: It’s very spacious. There’s room for a table for four people.
Mrs Dorothy: Are these appliances brand new?
Matt Cruise: Yes. In fact, they are!
Mrs Dorothy: That’s wonderful! And how about the bedrooms?
Matt Cruise: There are two smaller bedrooms and the master bedroom. The master bedroom is very cosy. It is the only one that has an en suite bathroom.
Mrs Dorothy: That’s fine for me.
Matt Cruise: Let me tell you about the living room. There’s a big window with a great view. There’s also a nice fireplace.
Mrs Dorothy: Oh, I love fireplaces… And the dining room? The dining room is very important. You see, my parents always come over for Sunday lunch.
Matt Cruise: Yes, the dining room is, in fact, big and modern. It even has a door to the kitchen.
Mrs Dorothy: Great! This is just what I was looking for. It’s the perfect flat for me!
Matt Cruise: Shall we confirm the visit, then?
Mrs Dorothy: Oh yes, please see if you can do that as soon as possible!

Welcome to Camila Cabello’s house!

Camila’s Mediterranean style villa1 is located in the Hollywood Hills in the heart of Los
Angeles. The design of this 3570 square feet Hollywood house is cool and impressive.
The front of the house is hidden by tall trees and there’s a courtyard 2 that you must
enter before you reach her front door. There’s also a double car garage out front.
Once you enter the house, there’s a living room with a fireplace and a big dining room with
lots of space for many guests. Camila’s kitchen is brand new. It has got new appliances and bar
style stools. The living room and study have a lot of natural light thanks to all the glass windows
and doors. In fact, the whole wall that separates the living room from the back garden is made
of glass!
There are three bedrooms and four en suite bathrooms upstairs. Her master bedroom is
obviously the nicest bedroom because it has a fireplace and a comfy sofa. In the bathroom
there’s a large tub3. The fourth room is a small office. That’s where Camila takes care of
business.
The backyard is very cosy, too. It has got an amazing saltwater pool with a fantastic area to
have a barbecue. I guess that we could say that this is a true dream house!
