Houses, one

 

House is a building that provides shelter, comfort, and protection. Houses vary in size from one-roomed mud huts to many-roomed mansions.

They may have only one storey (floor), or several storeys. They stand in cities, towns, and villages, and in both suburban areas and the country.

Types of houses vary with the needs and wealth of the inhabitants, and with the building materials that are available. Many large buildings are divided into flats, or apartments. Each flat is a complete, self-contained home on one storey.
