Description
The Read's house has a kitchen, living room, a bathroom, three bedrooms, a laundry room in the basement, a dining room, and an attic. Arthur has his room to himself and it has green walls, wooden floor, cabinets, his bed, many posters including a Bionic Bunny poster, books, and Bionic Bunny merchandise, and its dormer window is on the right side of the house, and his room is also the smallest bedroom in the house and only close to the front of the house. D.W. and Kate both share a room and it has pink walls, purple wall something (what do you call these?), orange carpeting, toys and dolls, Mary Moo Cow merchandise, D.W.'s bed, and Kate's crib, a diaper-changing table for Kate, and its dormer window is on the left side of the house, and their room is also the largest bedroom in the house and also has a window that faces the backyard. Jane and David both share a room, the master bedroom, which at the back of the house upstairs. In the early Arthur books, the stairs were originally straight until the book Arthur's Baby changed the stairs to winder stairs. The stairs are white in the cartoon show, but were usually brown in the books. Pal loves to sleep with Arthur and dislikes the garage. The living room has a TV, a sofa, lounge chairs, a standing lamp, a brown upright piano, and a computer cabinet with a computer. In the kitchen and dining room, Arthur, D.W., and their parents sit on chairs at the table, and Kate sits in her highchair. The attic is a large wooden room right under the roof and above the second floor, and it is full of cargo and is accessible by the ladder. The laundry room has a conventional washing machine and an electric clothes dryer. David's catering business is in the garage in kitchen-style area. After a set number of seasons, they get a new computer that replaces the previous one.

Computers
The Read family has had three computers in the following seasons. Their first computer was a gray compact case with a CRT monitor mounted on it, although it was later slightly redesigned to have a CD drive. Their second one was a black tower with the CRT monitor with integrated audio speakers next to it, but changed to white in Season 9. Their current computer is a teal tower with the LCD monitor with integrated audio speakers next to it.

Vehicles
The Read family owns two vehicles: a purple 5-door station wagon (driven by both David and Jane) that they mainly drive to take the family places and a yellow catering van (driven only by David) with a symbol of a pot with a face and a chef's hat that David drives to deliver desserts to many customers. The station wagon is usually parked on the driveway while the van is always parked in the garage where David's catering business is run.
