American colonial-style houses are so cute 2bh
Australian houses were decent until the 70's, now they're all cheaply-built, blocky modern monstrosities.

Same happened in the US. We have tons of homes built before the 70's that are well-designed/built and beautiful, but most things built after that are "lowest bidder" builds. We do have it pretty good though as far as housing goes.
>>
>>51400316
Those are Council Houses, for desperate people. In Australia we call it the Housing Commission, and in Melbourne there are big towers of flats that were built in the 60's, which druggies hang around.

British families are living in some of the most cramped conditions in Europe with more than half of homes falling short of minimum modern space standards, new research has found.
The study found the UK has the smallest homes by floor space area of any European country with the average new build property covered just 76sq m

I live in the UK (on holiday in Australia) and you can get some really cosy houses for reasonable prices. For example, look at this house that's on the market just down the road from me.

I live in a Victorian terrace btw, very comfy. Only in disgusting working class shitholes do you get such disgusting housing or in London, which is overcrowded as shit.

Whats that old chum? You and your parents are destined for a life of degeneracy and destitution because you and your father can't even properly provide for your family? Why don't you fuck off and die, I can't stand people like you, sitting in my England leeching off people like my parents and crying about how poor they are. If you don't like it, change it.
>>51403283
That house is the definition of cosy and considering its a Grade II listed house, it certainly is reasonable. Also, I'm not Australian, I'm on holiday

At 1600 sq feet, no.

It is an old, tiny cottage with a renovated kitchen and a very small, though well-landscaped, yard. Wouldn't pay anywhere near that for a place like this.
>>
>>51403322

Paid 150K US (about 100k pounds) for my place and, other than the landscaping and historical aspect, it is pretty much nicer in just about every way (square footage/kitchen/bathrooms/storage/plot size/etc.)
>>
>>51403406

You could hire people to build a new house that size for £200k, land cost depends on the location.
>>
>>51403484

You don't seem to be understanding this. 200k pounds (300k dollars) is still an insane amount to build a 1600sq foot house, especially when that doesn't factor in the plot of land.

I like them.
European residences are often attached for more density, and in a properly designed city you have parks and open green spaces so that you don't really need a yard.

Saying something has "no character" is modernist codeword for saying "it doesnt look buttugly, it has to look buttugly to have character".

Per calender month.

Calender month specifies that you pay the same for a 28-day month as you do for a 31-day month.
If you just say "per month" people might htink you mean every 30 days, or whatever.

Australia, those apartments are in Cambridge.
Cambridge has more worth than your entire country.
Your cities are nothing but soulless, bland steel and concrete shitheaps compared to Cambridge.
You literally could not have picked a worse target to insult.
Go and get in your car and drive to your nearest city. I assume you live in a suburb, so the nearest city is probably half an hours drive away, as per New World cities - soulless shit heaps that everyone has to drive to from there shitty little suburbian units that they call a home.
