You have about 2 seconds, maybe a tad less.

I live in a 3 bedroom house with an apartment attached in the back... I guess you could call it a 4 bedroom house if you wanna get technical. :)

2 bedroom apartment with a roommate.

we're thinking of moving into a 3 bedroom next Spring, though, so as to have some extra place for storage (or a library).

I've fashioned a house out of three cardboard boxes (bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen) each with trashcan lid roofing. It's quite cozy.

no central heating sucks. I feel your pain.

our apartment only has two temperatures when it's cold out -- boiling hot and freezing cold. usually more cold than hot, since we're trying to save on gas.

i have two 30 yr old gas heaters in here...they kick much ass...however not having central ac sucks in the summer...i keep it cool downstairs where the bedrooms are mostly...me and my gf dont really hang out upstairs that much...all my computers and good home theatre stuff are down here...theres a 19" tv 5.1 speakers, with no .1(sub) and a dvd player upstairs...all the good stuff is down here

Um...quick check on terminology here.

First some definitions from dictionary.com:

Condo - Complex where units are owned by individuals....
Apartment - A unit in a building that is occupied by more than one household

I own a 4-plex and live in one of the units...so what would my answer be to the OP's original question?
