My perfect house

I can now sit back and heave a big sigh of relief. The
finished decor of my house is worth every cent of my
hard earned money and every unit of my energy. Now, I
can simply enjoy the little paradise that I have created.

By observing the exterior, one will get the impression of a
cottage in the country-side. The stark white color of the
house is toned down by the rows of palm trees and
shrubs in the front lawn. The multi-colored flowers greet
me every morning as I sit on my rocking chair and enjoy
the fresh morning air.

Within the house, a similar condition prevails. The
perpetual open windows allow for healthy ventilation and
full view of the serene and beautiful garden. The living
room boasts of a dark mahogany sofa set which is
complemented by parquet flooring. Just a few meters
away, I have created a “corner of peace” as I call it; and
this is for the purpose of relaxation. I have placed a large
durable rug, some cushions, some magazines and books
for leisure reading and a small, portable radio.

Contrary to the condition of informality of the areas I have
mentioned, the dining area portrays unmatched
grandeur. The entrance to it consists of magnificent
archways and pillars which will remind one of the intricate
Roman architecture. The windows are deliberately
draped with dramatic purple-colored velvet curtains done
up with frills and tassels. To top them all, I have


purposely chosen my furniture that bears an Elizabethan
air of supremacy. To complete the atmosphere, I have
added a beautiful chandelier to brighten up the dining
area. This part of my house is the source of my pride
especially on occasions when I have to entertain
important guests.

The kitchen is another place of extreme importance. I
have managed to come up with a splendid arrangement
of kitchen cabinets, refrigerator and cookers and an
undoubtedly perfect color combination. Because this area
is where food is prepared, I made sure that I allowed for
maximum hygiene. I have my oven and refrigerator built
into the cabinet. My cooker is next to the wash basin and
my little portable waste basket which comes with tight-
fitting lid is directly below it. The kitchen also offers an
extended table attached to the cabinet that can be
utilized as an informal dining area. The toilets, not to be
ignored, have also been scrupulously planned. To with
stand continuous splashing of water, I have chosen
durable, tinted sliding doors. I have also thrown rubber
mats on the floor of the bathroom to prevent accidents
such as slipping while bathing. In short, my relatively
small kitchen has great utility value.

Finally, I take pleasure in describing the bathrooms which
I have enjoyed decorating. The master bedroom has
been furnished with a chrome-plated bed that comes with
side tables, a made-to-order-wardrobe that has an
efficient storage system and a full length mirror to give

me the pleasure of looking at myself from head to toe. I
have used a range of fabrics from the Laura Ashley
collection. The pale, muted blue flowery print blends well
with the plain blue textured wallpaper. The bed sheets,
the curtains and even the cushion covers are of the same
Laura Ashley collection.

The guestroom, however, makes use of bright yellow as
its main hue. There are two single beds separated by a
light yellow rug. The beds come with drawers for keeping
clothes neat and tidy. The drawers can also be converted
into a bed when the need arises.

To conclude, I feel proud and happy that I was able to
design and decorate my house so well without the
expertise and help of professional house renovators. The
emergence of my dream house readily gives me the
utmost pleasure and satisfaction.
