A young married couple is looking for a house: He needs an address in a business area while she wants to live in a posh residential area. They compromise by finding a house bordering on both areas with two entrance doors(?) and two different street addresses. Confuse acquaintances into believing they can actually afford to run two establishments.
Read it in English, I think the story was set in a US town. It was a funny-ish story, light-hearted, written in early 20th century / public domain I guess. I have a feeling I actually _listened_ to this story on LibriVox, but cannot find it again.
Does this sound familiar to anybody?
