Model Answer for IELTS Speaking Part 2 – Topic: Describe your dream home.

Describe your dream home.

You should say:

 Where the house is

 What the house includes

 How it looks

 And explain why you like to live in this house

(Where the house is) I’ve dreamed of having a house in the resort city of Danang since it was crowned the most liveable city in Vietnam, and has won this title for 5 years, leaving bar behind its rivals such as Vung Tau, which is my hometown, and Ho Chi Minh city, which is the wealthiest city in Vietnam. Danang is such a stunning coastal city with magnificent scenery of the sea and the mountains. It’s natural and modern at the same time, that’s why I would love to live there.

(What the house includes) As a person with a diminutive frame, I would also love to live in a small house without any floors. Yet, it should comprise necessities as well as other kinds of other supplementary things like a pool or a garden. 30% of my house should be covered by greenery because it will calm down the temperature significantly when heatwaves, along with high humidity, affect the region during the summer.

(How it looks) The walls will be painted in white, which makes my house look a lot brighter and reduces the absorption of heat. Also, the doors will be all glassy because there is nothing more elegant than glass. I follow the minimalism of the Japanese, and I am lazy, so there will be nothing much inside my house apart from a kitchen, creamy lights, and some very essential necessities. There is no question of paintings or complicated furniture being in my house.

(And explain why you like to live in this house) From what I’ve said, there are two main reasons. This house is located in the city of Danang, which is a coastal city with beautiful beaches and mountains. The house is built in deference to Japanese minimalism and I’m a couch potato who does not want to spend time on tidying up the house too frequently.
