1. My new flat is much more modern than my old house.
2. I want to move to a terraced house that is quieter than the one I live in now.
3. The downstairs area feels larger than the upstairs because of the open-plan kitchen.
4. Living in a flat is often more convenient than living in a house because there is less maintenance.
5. Our upstairs bathroom is cleaner than the small toilet downstairs.
6. I hope my dream terraced house will be more colorful than this grey building.
7. The garden in a house is usually prettier than a small balcony in a flat.
8. We need a house with an upstairs that is brighter than our current dark hallway.
9. My current downstairs lounge is cosier than the one in my parents' home.

My dream house would be bigger than my house is now.
I want to live in a more beautiful place than I live now.
I would like my garden to be prettier than it is now.
I would rather have a detached house, a house not connected to other houses.
It would be nice to have a bigger house, but also sometimes in a terraced house you can hear people through the walls, and I sing a lot, and I don't like that my neighbours can probably hear me singing.
I also like our garden because we get a small area of sun where we can grow vegetables in the summer.
I would have the house I have now, but I would like it bigger.
Obviously, I would like a swimming pool, but that's not very realistic.
But it's my dream house, so I can have a swimming pool.
But my main thing is that I would like to live in a more beautiful area, because at the moment, there's quite a lot of other houses around us, and I would love to live in the countryside.
I loved the last flat I lived in because it was the first place that I owned and my children were babies there. So it has special memories. But it was not very convenient because it was too small and too noisy because the neighbours upstairs were very noisy.
I would quite like a bigger lounge, because our lounge, a lounge is a room in the house where you relax and can watch TV, where you have a sofa or sofas.
I would quite like to have a bigger lounge, although we have a nice fire in our lounge, which is really nice and cosy in the winter.

We have three bedrooms, they are all a decent size, and a bathroom.
We have a kitchen and a dining room, and we also have a utility room and a little toilet.
I've lived in plenty of flats in my life.
So that's where everything is on one level, you might live in a block of flats, and that means that your home is part of a larger building. In the US, we normally call a flat an apartment.
