　　以下为范例，借鉴并运用上面的词汇描述下你理想的房子吧。

　　For now, I am sharing an apartment with three other roommates, so it gets quite crowded at times. This is the reason why I always dream of one day owning a house. My dream house should be located in the outskirts of the city to feel refreshed after work from the busy metropolis. This house could simply have five rooms, one of which will be my music room. I play a number of musical instruments, like the guitar and the piano, so I would like to house my instruments in a room to keep them from getting out of tune. In this room I could practice my hobbies of playing the guitar and the piano. This room should also have a state-of-the art stereo where I could listen to all sorts of music peacefully. Then let's not forget the terrace. Outside the French doors of the upper rooms should be a roundabout terrace encircling the house. The terrace could be overlooking a green yard where patches of flowers grow on the front and a tennis lawn is kept tidy on the back. This house will be my safe haven where I can rest after a hard day's work.
