Describe your idea of a perfect home or a dream house.
You should say:
- where it would be located
- what it would look like
- what facilities this house would have
and explain why this would be your perfect/dream house.
[You will have to talk about the topic for one to two minutes. You have one minute to think about what you are going to say. You can make some notes to help you if you wish.]
Model Answer:
Living in an environment full of air pollution, noise and the hustle and bustle of city life, I have always wanted to live in a secluded place close to a clear lake surrounded by trees, but certainly not too far away from the city centre. In other words, my dream home should be located in one of the quiet suburbs within a driving distance of the city so that I could have the best of both livings – the city life as well as the countryside life.
To be more precise about the house, it should have two floors with balconies all around so that I could look over the trees and enjoy the surrounding natural beauty. I don’t exactly prefer any “colour pollution”, so my dream home should be painted with light colour paints from both inside and outside in order to provide it with a “sublime” look. Also, I want my dream home to have a perfectly designed interior with a large space inside. The exterior of the home should have the design and look of a “bungalow”, but it won’t be exactly a bungalow. I also want to make sure the windows of my dream home are designed and placed in such a way that the interior of my home receives enough lights and air from all directions all the times.
Finally, my dream home should be a “modern-day” residence with all kinds of facilities such as large bedrooms, a large guestroom complete with bathroom, storage, TV and mini-fridge, a large dining space, a large kitchen with personal pantry storage, laundry facilities and a small, nice computer lounge and so on. All of my washrooms should be equipped with bathtubs.
It would be my dream home primarily because this is the place where I would want to come back at the end of the day no matter where I am. My sweet home will be my perfect dream home because it will be built to offer me security and comfort like no other place in the world. I would call it my dream home also because this would be the place where I would be able to live with all of my family members in peace and harmony without being the subjects of unnecessary noise and disturbances. Finally, I would call it my perfect dream home because it would allow me an opportunity to interact with the mother nature in seclusion by sitting close to the lake.
