I don't understand the announcement that another room was added to the housing. I have a 2 room and I still have a two room. I did note that the item limit seemed to change. Did I overlook something in my brief glance about the place?
Take a tour of a house that has a layout like yours so you can see where the new room went. I know on a lot of my houses, the new room was covered by something, like the poster above me said.
