^^ very nice house

Nice house that.

http://k53.pbase.com/o4/73/569773/1/56256034.20050522011TaiKooShinghh5b.jpg

I actually live on the 5th building to the right of the picture (so not in view), but all the buildings by the front of Tai Koo Shing look the same anyway.

^^ you live in a condo
good!

What's the difference between an apartment and a condominium?

^^ I believe in NA condo is a term that means part of the property is individually owned and part is commonly owned. I think it's a subset of an apartment.

Anyway, I believe the proper term in HK is a flat?

I will take pictures, I live between four places right now, and I'm not sure i have a picture of my house back in NA

ehh just a boring house:
http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a391/philvia/100_0547.jpg

lol, my home doesn't deserve to be show :D

It's a typical 3-4 apartments house of the '70s.

Not ugly, but not nice at all ... I don't like it very much ...

i also have no plans on posting our house here
but i'll just give the specifications
-300 sq m
-4 bedroom
-1 bathroom
-patio
-garage for 2 cars

POST EM. I want to see how houses in other countries look. How can a 4bed 1 bath only have 300 sq ft??

You need some landscaping

I dont think he does. The house looks good like that and the no landscaping helps show off the house. IF you have a suburban sprawl house than you need landscaping to be diffrent than your neighbors.

You need some landscaping

Yeah, a little bit. Right now I'm up to my ears in other stuff, but eventually it will happen. There won't be any large permanent plantings because I don't want a lot of maintenance, but I like flowers and do pretty well with them. I'll probably put in some traditional stuff that fits the period of the house, like hollyhocks, daisies, gladiolus -- maybe even some peonies. I'm mostly surrounded by fairly dense canopy, so the shade limits my options on much of the property.

POST EM. I want to see how houses in other countries look. How can a 4bed 1 bath only have 300 sq ft??

300 sq m = just over 3000 sq ft.

^^ 300 sq m is about 3000 sq ft.

1 m is 3.28 ft.

1 sq m is 10.76 sq ft.

300 sq m = 3229 sq ft

^^ 300 sq m is about 3000 sq ft.

1 m is 3.28 ft.

1 sq m is 10.76 sq ft.

300 sq m = 3229 sq ft

Yep, as I said...

Edit

Presumably, you live in quite a bit of shadow/shade then!

Since we're all giving away specifications...

We've adjoined two flats (one was 983 sq ft, the other was 1029 sq ft); so our 'reported' flat size is 2012 sq ft, although only 70% of that is actually useable (rest goes into amenities like lift, swimming pool, community space [Welcome to Hong Kong...]), so it's actually about 1400 sq ft.

It has 5 beds w/ 2 ensuite (one of which is maid's quarters, one is guest quarters, one is a computer room/library, two ensuite: one is mine, and master bedroom), and 3 full bathrooms. We also have two living rooms thanks to the weird shape of the building, one which we've turned into a sitting area for when guests come, and the other more for a TV sort of thing and one kitchen. Also, two balconies.

Yep, as I said...

Wow...$$$

My house is around 1800 sq ft, 2.5 bath, 3 bed, two stories, 4000 sq ft backyard.

That's about it... my parents believe in no excess.

More images of the area ~

I used to live in the white building to the left, on the 10th floor ~ the podium is on the 3rd floor, so if you count up to the 10th floor you'll see purple/dark tinted windows. We used to live there pre-April 2006, for 5 years.

http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/3346/0191qd8.jpg

Since then, we've moved - but only a couple of blocks to the right (west) of the previous picture, still in the same estate/area.
This is where I actually live, on the 6th (correction; it's 6th, not 5th) white and red building you see.

Its atleast 7,500sf and atleast 9,000sf if you include the finished basement
5 car garage
inground pool
4 stair cases going from the 1st and second floors
2 stair cases going from the basement and 1st floors
7 bedrooms
7.5 baths
9 driveway parking spaces
2 1st floor offices and 1 2nd floor office

There are more than 20 rooms that I know of, I am not allowed in a part of my house cause thats were my brother works.

I live in Texas with my brother incase you are wondering.lol.

^^ that's a big house

our house

mine 7000, at Carlton Wood, Woodlands, Houston, but left the house abandon since my dad working abroad.

what does he do? :)

He invests in stocks and bonds, and does computer stuff. Thats all I know, what he does bores me to death so I dont ask about it very much.

He lived out side of Dallas in Rockwall, Texas, and I lived there. Then we moved to Houston to be by my family that is in Houston.lol.

So you don't live in his huge mansion anymore?

I'll post a pic later (its rather plain though), but the specs on my house:

~1,500 sqft.
2 stories
Built around 1945, with a second storey addition in 1990
4 bedrooms
2 bathrooms

So you don't live in his huge mansion anymore?

I do, the house in Dallas was around 12,000sf, the house that we live in now is atleast 7,500sf

i would like to ask how much would my house cost in europe?

Hard to say, it seems most of the US suburban homes seems to be made mostly of wood, while European homes are usually bricks.

I live in the row in the center, with roommates. The row is mixed rental and buy homes, and the prices are as high as € 250,000 or $ 390,000 for a house that's only 5 meters wide and 8 meters long with a small yard.

i would like to ask how much would my house cost in europe?

Your house in europe... with very good materials.... emmm... in Spain i think about 1.500.000 €, but the difference between yours and the possible european one is very big in qualities and a fantastic construction, of course not wood, also it depends if that house is near a big city or in the countryside

how much is the price of that house or just an empty lot of that size in your city??

$455,000 USD

so it's not so expensive for its size ^^

It seems like the majority of SSC forumers are very wealthy.

Count me out of that haha.

Hopefully when I am done with college I will be upper middle class or at least comfterable.

My moms came a long way from growing up in Harlem's project to owning a house in the suburbs.

My appartment is in the circled area, on the 5th floor on an old warehouse build somewhere around 1875. The wall you see is the only window-less one (fortunately).

Wow that's small, my house sits on a block 12.5 metres wide and 32 metres deep (and this is small by suburban Australian standards).

It is a 3 bedroom house with one bathroom and a double garage, sorry i don't have a pic.

current value $240,000 (AUD) = $230,492.20 (USD)

My house is a department...:cry:

A department? What does that mean exactly?

^ i think he means a police department
Neitzsche you're truly fortunate to have such an amazing view and place to live

My house was built in the early 1890's (see the little picture that is my avatar). It has six bedrooms, but has only 2 big bathrooms and one small bathroom. It is brick, with a mansard roof. There is a small garden in the back.

^ i think he means a police department
Neitzsche you're truly fortunate to have such an amazing view and place to live

No what he means is apartment but in Mexico they're called "departamentos"

This is the building where I live. This is right in the heart of Chicago in what it's called the North Loop (a.k.a. the Theatre District).

I'm actually renting an apartment in this building until my condo, currently under construction in a different tower around the corner is ready to be occupied in the spring of '09.

I won't post pics of my home, which is a 2 bedroom flat in central London, just to tell you, prices in London are so high, most ppl can't afford to buy homes here, most need to move out of the area. I was lucky, my mom bought my abode in 1993 for 87 000 pounds, (I paid her all back) now same place is worth near 750 000 pounds or 1.5 million USD. And no I do not consider my self rich at all. :cheers:

lol, that's a good one there............ it is very easy to post a nice looking home other than ours, since we are all anonymous in a way............we cannot prove them wrong, so we have to believe what they post.

On the other hand, yes some forumers do own a nice place......................cheers everybody.
