Dear Wendy,

It is good to have the pyramid type roof or `swiss cottage' type of roof.

The threat you mention can be neutralised and this is a consideration.

Overall, besides the other points I mentioned, if you have the time, use the Eight House template to see which house is best suited for the breadwinner.

In particular, it would be better if the main door is not the `death or disaster' sector for the breadwinner.

For other family members and the breadwinner, check to see - in particular if the bedroom is suited for each family member - where possible.

The other important considerations are the the toilet(s) should preferably not be at the frontage of the house. And if possible there is clear space at the centrepoint of the house. And toilet should preferably not be at the centrepoint.

Otherwise, as mentioned above, the threat can be neutralised by using e.g. a day curtain to screen the window from the sharp edge of another house.

The pointed roofs, and triangle peaks are advantages for a house as it is a house `on the offensive' and since many people do this, it would be good. If not, others may also do the same onto us.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
