My House

I live in a house near the sea. It`s an old house, about 100 years old, and it`s very small. There are two bedrooms upstairs but no bathroom. The bathroom is downstairs next to the kitchen and there`s a living room where there`s a

lovely old fireplace. There`s a garden in front of the house. The garden goes down to the beach and in spring and summer there are flowers everywhere.

I live alone with my dog, Boxer, but we have a lot of visitors. Many of my friends work in the city, so they often stay with me because they want to relax.

I love my house for many reasons: the garden, the flowers in summer, the fire in winter, but the best thing is the view from my bedroom window.
