Thank you Mlady Raka and Prof for your responses!
I'm actually a "she," and the house we're building is detached. The reason for the two numbers with a dash is because we've got over an acre of land and have been issued 3 house numbers, so the way to do it here (Australia) is to combine all numbers.
For example, we've been issued house numbers 35, 37 and 39 and so it goes 35-39 (the dash is "through" so to speak). A person down the road from us has house number 1-5 (1,3 and 5 been issued).
We actually have the choice of picking one of the house numbers and just using that, but i personally don't prefer what any of them come down to: 8, 1 or 3. I prefer a 2 house since we're a couple with a 6 mo old baby and want a tranquil environment to raise our growing family.
I know that the house number is not the be all and end all, that the occupants have a bearing on the "vibes" of the house as well. But i think that with what we want from a house (a sanctuary) the 2 house is great.
What do you think?
