BRITISH HOUSES

In British houses, the kitchen and the living room are usually downstairs and the bedrooms and bathroom are upstairs.

In Britain there are a lot of houses. Flats aren't very popular: they haven't got a garden and gardens are very important to British people.

British flat = ordinary residence. British apartment= posh flat.
