It’s a small space apartment, only fit for a single person. It has a queen-size bed, a bathroom, a ceiling-to-floor glass door opening to a small balcony where I can use the washing machine for my laundry and the hanging rod to dry my clothes.

The sunlight cannot pass through my flat because many residential buildings are built around it, which hinders the natural light from outside. I am planning to renovate to solve this problem.
Overall, your answer is good! Just remember to use “are” after “there” to match the plural noun “bedrooms”. Also, it’s “renovated” instead of “renovation” to make the sentence structure clearer. Keep up the good work!

The house I live in is a traditional, two-story building situated in a quiet hamlet near the French border, far from the busy streets of Turin. It’s nestled in the foothills of the Alps, offering beautiful mountain views and a peaceful atmosphere. The house has three spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen, and a cozy living room, which features a vaulted ceiling.mThere’s a small front garden with vibrant flowers and a backyard where we often enjoy family barbecues.
Inside, the walls are painted in vibrant colors, giving each room a lively and welcoming feel. Large windows allow plenty of natural light to flood in, and from them, you can witness the transformation of seasons, especially in autumn when the trees outside change their colors to warm shades of red, gold, and orange. It’s a quiet, serene home, perfect for escaping the hustle of city life.
Your answer is very detailed and paints a vivid picture of your house. However, there are a couple of mistakes that need to be corrected:
1. “mThere’s” should be “There’s” – This is just a typo.
2. “warm shades of red, gold, and orange” – Great job on the description! Just make sure to add commas after “gold” and “orange” for proper punctuation.
Here is the corrected version:
