SIMPLICITY and ease of transport are the beauties of this seven-year-old, three-bedroom bungalow in Kyeemyindaing township.

In addition to the quick and relatively simple transport options to the downtown area, the house has a fuss-free 2625-square-foot concrete compound, with protection provided by an iron fence.

However, several splashes of colour and year-round sweet fragrances are guaranteed by a pair of thanaka and tamar trees that front the house.

The house faces east, which allows morning light – and heat – to stream into the living room, which is also the first room as you enter the house.

Parquet flooring has been chosen for the living room alone, everywhere else there are unattractive but efficient smoky grey tiles, which are all the better to save time in cleaning.

The bedrooms, two small singles and a modest double, sit on either side of an L-shaped hallway that leads to the back of the house.

A small but functional dining room and kitchen are at the back of the house and feature time-saving tiles on the floor and walls. At the side of the kitchen is a door that opens into the house’s back compound, which is refreshingly clear of concrete.

Also alongside the kitchen is a large bathroom with a toilet, hand basin and shower.

The house is small, only 1000 square feet, and should be easy to maintain but – other than the living room – is stuffy: There is little in the way of natural ventilation or lighting.

That said, it does come with two air-conditioners and two electricity meters and is supplied by tube well. It comes with a 60-year lease.
