house is not really a synonym of home
When I lived in an apartment, I tried very hard to remember to say "Come over to my place" instead of "my house" because I knew it wasn't really a house. I eventually gave up. Most people understand "my house" to mean "where I live" whether it's actually a house or some other structure.

I had a sign in my apartment. Instead of the usual, "Home Sweet Home", mine read "Apartment Sweet Apartment. It helped me keep things in perspective too. It just never felt like "home" to me.
