Detached housing?

Post Reply New Topic

Wouldn't one agree that it's only ideal kind of place for aspies? I just can't believe it just seems like there's none that is effectively for a single person. Somehow, in the UK at least, if it's detached it must be a mansion for a whole organization to live in. Why can't lowly huts exist?! I'm alone but I don't want random strangers to blight my life! I seriously need to solve this, or someone will end up dead...

One bedroom bungalows. They exist.

I wish I lived in a detached house. I currently live in a terrace. One chap is generally very quiet, however the other side is a little annoying. It also makes me feel self-conscious about making noises myself, as I am thinking that maybe I'll be heard by my neighbours. The walls however are very thick, they are houses built around 1900 for the coal miners.

A hut you say... that does sound nice. I have a fantasy about living in the woods as a woodsman, being self-sufficient. Could build my own hut out of logs and stuff.

It is not all cracked up like you think.

Unless you leave on a good chunk land (acre), you deal with idiot neighbors. My parents have a detached home, and in the summer the neighbors would do all sorts of loud things. Stereo blaring with all the windoor open. Car repairs. Landscaping. Forget about complaining, no one gives a s**t.

People actual do try to keep the noise down in aparents or other joined buildings. A meat head apartment dweller is hell. A meat head home owner is a few levels down in the inferno.

I've lived in apartment ts the last 20 years. I've have more parents actually try to keep their kids from screaming bloody murder here, than by my parents. My parents have a family whose kids will standing in the back yard and full bore scream, for hours. WTF? The children don't have special needs, they just like scream. The family owns the house, so it's a big f**k you to all the neighbors with shattered nerves.

Wow, I would like to walk up to their house at 3am with an Air Horn.

Our neighbors all have dogs. They bark (the dogs, not the neighbors), and usually only because they hear another dog barking.

Yes, the air-horn idea is effective.

A few years ago I went from my parents suburban home to a 200 unit apartment building near downtown in a rougher part of town. Guess which one was quieter by a long shot? My parents next door neighbor used to mow his lawn every Saturday morning during the summer....at 6:45am and also put in wind chimes just to annoy them to boot.

Granted it's not all sunshine at my soon to be former apartment. The jerks next door recently started parking a giant 18 wheeler cab right outside my bedroom window and start the damn things up at 3-6am for 20 minutes. The walls vibrate when they do that. At least it's winter and the windows are shut (and I am moving): I can't tell you how irritating that is as an Aspie!

I do dream of living in one bedroom bungalows. I plan to get one someday. It's a very common thing here from where I live. Ranging from made out of expensive materials to made out straws and coconut leaves. Poor families here, no matter how big, cram themselves in such spaces...

I would like a more isolated location for it.


Right now, I'm living in an apartment for over 11 years now with my mom and sister. Even the neighbors here aren't bad, but the renting costs wants to drive my mom out...

God in his wisdom, decreed in the Mosaic Law that all houses had to be build detached, to have no adjoining walls.

It is pretty nice, I must admit.

I've never lived in attached housing, but I think I could manage it just fine - especially with earplugs in at night to sleep. I have slept overnight in others' apartments here and there when I was too tired or drunk to drive and didn't have any issues with it. Still, if I lived in attached housing I'd appreciate very quiet neighbours.. it would suck if they were partiers, or had screaming kids or barking dogs.

I had my parents house to myself for the month of October while they were away. It was pretty nice & peaceful.

I'm currently house sitting someone else' house for a month-ish while they're away. Again, it's nice and peaceful - and in a much quieter lower traffic area than my parents, so even better.

I had planned on doing a fair bit of reading, but so far it's been more like internet and tv lol. I still have time to get some reading done, though.

No for supporting trump. Because doing so is deplorable.

Barking dogs, neighbors mowing three times a week, a hobby I suppose, and when one's done the other will start.
And a neighbor, who's out of work, has most days something loud to do in front of my house while swearing loudly! Like a slapstick, coming with his tractor, getting off of it, looking at his electric fence, 'oh putain de merde', it's closed, returning to his house to stop the electricity while leaving the tractor turning on my entrence, getting back opening the fence, going in, putting three pieces of something on his tractor and then the same way out, and that every morning. Just starting his day.
The son of the other neighbors has returned, he does rallying.

I wish I lived in a detached house instead of a townhouse apartment. The neighbors on one side yell a lot, move heavy things around & i hear knocking on their door alot. & the neighbors on the other side have little kids that cry loudly, run around alot, have the TV on loudly, & I hear banging.
