How many separate rooms do you have in your current residence?
I have a small abode with two bedrooms, one bath, a living room and a dining room. I also have a huge yard, both back and front, that has some lovely weed flowers still growing.

2. Hmmm
7 rms and a bath. Breezeway doesn't count right? Full cellar, huge adjoining shed that is intended to eventually be a master bedroom, large front deck and 2 car garage. My home sits on 3 acres.

Bought it in 97 for 45k. Typical price for this kind of home around here because there are no stinken jobs!!!

6. I live in one 8x16 single dorm room.
Edited on Fri Oct-24-03 01:31 AM by northwest
128 square feet, with carpeting that I had to provide myself. With the beige tiling on the floor, it feels like I'm living in a classroom.:-(

10. 70 m2 appartment with one bath, a big living room, big kitchen and
two bedrooms (actually it's more like one bedroom and one computer-tablehockey-everythingelse-room), oh and a balcony! No garden though as we live on the fourth floor, but we have an enormous forest immediately outside our door on lovely Bøler, south-east Oslo!

20. Sounds Close To Our House
We have three bedrooms, though. 2 Downstairs, 1 Up. It's a Cape Cod so it's got a small footprint, and we have a slightly larger property than others on the block (we're on the corner), so we've got a sizeable yard.

So, it's 7 rooms, with a finished rec room in the basement, we get to the garage off the sidestreet (curved driveway) because the garage is in the basement.

23. Pretty standard house of the 50's...
Living room, kitchen, three tiny bedrooms, one bath, laundry room, family room (latter two converted from the original garage) - so 8 rooms - 6 when it was first built. No dining room (we don't even have a table). If you count the semi-finished attic, the screened and covered back porch, and the huge detached shop/garage, then you can add three more rooms.

We're in the process of enlarging the laundry room so we can squeeze in a half-bath now.

24. I have a small trailer.
Only the bedroom and bathroom are separate, but I also have a large patch of land that is partially landscaped, with a lot to go though. I don't need a lot of indoor living space, but I do like a lot of outdoor living space.

26. 13, maybe 14
Four bedrooms, three bathrooms, living room, dining room, kitchen, office, laundry room, and a 10x10 entryway. All crammed into a way-too-small 1500sf. We also have a 10x20 solarium along the back of the house, but it's open to the living room and my wife and I have debated for years whether or not to count it as a seperate room. Because it doesn't sit on the houses foundation, it is NOT included in the 1500sf total.

28. We're remodelling
Edited on Fri Oct-24-03 10:30 PM by populistmom
Slowly, much of it ourselves. We have a 50's ranch with an L shaped living room/dining room, kitchen, bath, a 3 season sunroom, and three bedrooms. We are doing some improvements to our basement family room (which is really large) and we're turning a storage room into a bedroom, framing another bedroom, and adding a bathroom within the laundry room. SO let's see, now it's 8 (or 10 if you count the basement family room and laundry room) and it's soon to be a definate 12.
