I agree that the ultimate honor will be to be in our Father’s presence in eternity. I have tried to answer your specific questions as best as I can. If you want more answers, go to www.lds.org and check out articles and other information. It is the best source for official church doctrines and practices. But you must admit that the concept of a private space, whether a room, mansion, shack or any other thing seems somewhat terrestial in nature. After all, rooms are either for privacy or segregation. If we are not subject to death, need rest or the material things of life, why should we need a room of our own?

But, actually Heaven is something we can only speculate about in the details. I remain assured that Heaven exists and that the Lord is doing everything He can to bring as many of His children to Him as are willing to come. That is good news for us all.

I’ve enjoyed chatting with you.

You would need to ask Jesus that question

He is the One Who said...

Jhn 14:2 In my Father’s house are many mansions: if [it were] not [so], I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

Jhn 14:3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, [there] ye may be also. John 14:2, 3

place... in those verses...in the Greek is topos... a spot, a location, a home..

mansion in the Greek....monay...a staying, (residence) a mansion..

so Jesus has mansions in Heaven ready for us

:)
