Modern apartment building or traditional house?

I think I would prefer to build a traditional house but in a way that has modern facilities on the inside. It would just give you an apperance that its a traditional house outside but when you get to go inside its not primitive but a modern house that has modern facilities that others would thought that house would not have. that would be cool! :)

I like modern apartment building because we experienced traditional house very much because we have are own house build by our grant parents. So now I want to take experience of modern apartment hahah....

I am now living in an apartment, well-fascilitaed, well-designed, and well-laidout. I am quite happy here, especially because it is not too far to my work place. But, if I have to say my preference, it would be a traditional house out in the country-side in a refreshing pleasant environment. I had lived in such a house during my childhood years, and had been very happy.

Because, I can not afford to live in apartments. I chose, the traditional home to my residence.

On personal preference, I'd take the house anytime. I like to own things & be personally responsible for maintaining them, which saves a lot of costs over an apartment's Body Corporate Fees, which are supposed to cover maintenance work (so everything gets paid for by you one way or another!). Apartments are very difficult to change according to personal taste due to the abiding interests of everyone else living in the building. Coming from Down Under, we place a great deal of value on personal space. I've stayed in apartments & couldn't wait to get out of there! But houses, be they mine or someone else's, are so, so much better than apartments to stay in. Better building materials, more peaceful, individual styling which you can alter without having to beg for everyone's consent. Personal space is a rapidly diminishing natural resource that we cannot take for granted anymore - enjoy it whilst you still can! The world population isn't getting any smaller, you know!

I am living in a traditional house. And I am used to it. So maybe I prefer to live in a traditional house. But you know, maybe some days later, I can afford a modern apartment building and maybe I am used to it. So I think it is just whether you are used to it.

I would love to have a traditional house with my boyfriend. But right now we need to save some money to be able to pay for the house and some bills we are trying to pay off right now. Our apartment now is somewhat a traditional house that was split into two stories, two apartments so we have the feel of a house with the apartment. we even have two floors.

Hi. tenrajj. Right now with how I feel, I prefer to live in an traditional house. I feel more at home then. I have lived in an apartment before and, it has been awful! Especially, with my downstairs neighbor giving my family and I grief and stress. It may not be like this for everyone, but it was for me. I believe that anything can stop working if you have an apartment too. I have seen it happen before. With a family of five and three young children, I definitely will need a modern house. I know that I will feel more comfortable living in my own house.

I guess I would prefer living in a modern apartment building. But I have to admit that there are beautiful traditional houses as well, as long as the interior isn't that old-fashioned. You can design it the way you want.

Modern apartment buildings certainly have many advantages for the renter. There are a lot of people using that alternative here now. Houses have become an expensive liability where the chance of having to invest in repairs that doesn't have to be worried about in an apartment complex. For me, I like the traditional house. I like the privacy factor of having one. If someone has small children or wants an area to garden, a traditional house is better in my opinion. I also like the fact that I am not wall to wall with my neighbor. If they are loud or aggravating...that can be tough to manage too. A house can be a huge responsibility though..I think that an apartment is a great alternative until someone is ready to take the responsibility of a house.

i always thought of having one modern apartment and one traditional house. that doesnt seem really realistic to me but i will try my best. i want to have both because they are both comfortable and useful.

Personally, I prefer modern apartment buildings, out of these two, but the ultimate dream for me would be a modern house of my own. Too bad they are usually crazy expensive, at least where I live....

Hey. The economic in our country grows quickly in recent years. So there're more and more modern modern buildings in many cities. That means more and more traditional houses are pulling down and now few left. I don't think this is a very good thing. Modern apartments have the advantages but also divantages. One is that it's not easy for people to get to know their neighbors.

I really like to live in a traditional house. I want to have my own backyard, plant trees and grow grass. I also want to design my own house, make it personalized in a way. Eventhough it doesn't have the convenience that the modern apartment offers, a tradional house will have my soul carved on it.

I would like to rent modern apartment building since it would offer a number of facilities. After all at the end of the day facilities,especially domestic ones are important. You can get walking spaces, garden, park, security and the like in modern apartment building.

I would prefer to live in a traditional house. My first home was perfect for me. Outside it looked like an old cottage and inside it looked much more modern. Due to it being Grade 2 listed I wasn't able to change its windows unless they were exact copies of the original windows. It would have cost £1,700 to copy the door to the upstairs balcony. So I got my mom to help in renovate the door instead. I wouldn't ever like to live in an apartment. I prefer to have a bungalow or a house on a piece of land so I can enjoy having a garden. Also apart from being on the ground floor with disabled access an apartment would be useless for me. My disabled son is unable to walk and goes around in his wheelchair. We live in the bungalow that I bought last year. It was built in the early 1970s. My cottage that I had owned from age 19 to age 33 years old had been built in 1835. It used to be part of a Victorian Workhouse. Then it was renovated into cottages. I then moved to a modern house and had it for five years. It had been built in the early 1990s. Now I have to live where is practical for my disabled child.

Well, as per my info traditional house nowadays are very minimal since those who are in provinces are also building modern houses design already. I prefer modern house for the reason that I am afraid in traditional house because their might be spirits on it. Hehhe.. Although, I love visiting traditional houses because we can also remember old times sake and happenings.
