When I was a child I always had a wish, as a village girl, I wanted to have a feel of a self-contained house or apartment. Wow, finally my dream was a reality. In some time past I realised that buildings have evolved greatly over time. Self-contained are nice and reformed buildings, from the old and ancient ones we had those past few decades.

A self-contained apartment is one which has a hall, bedrooms, kitchen, toilet, bathrooms, garage and even guest rooms all built into one big room, with its division. Such buildings mostly have walls built around them in order for proper security. In building a self-contained house, one needs to really gather resources in order to put up such a structure.

A land must be bought according to the size of the building one wants. And a land cost varies from one community to the other depending on the acres an individual wants. Speaking to an owner of one nice self-contained owner at osu, he just burst into laughter and started to tell his story. “Guess what, I spent a lot putting up such a structure here in Osu, the land alone is worth a fortune but just to give a family a comfortable life, I needed to build this structure”. He really explained that buying of building materials gave him a hell of a time, as prices shot up.

Immediately, he explained vividly about the pays he gave out to workers and gardeners among others. But he said excitedly that it is actually nice living in such an apartment and very comfortable because, there’s no need to struggle with other people for a bathroom treat, everything is located inside, which helps one move freely.


It is safer to live in a comfortable and expensive building than to live in a less expensive one and feel so uncomfortable.
