"Home" and "house". Could anyone give me some examples to explain the difference?

Home ha un po' il senso di "focolare", rappresenta, tutto insieme, la casa stessa e l'intimità familiare. House è soltanto la casa nel senso di "costruzione".

A house is the actual building that someone would live in. A home is what you make of that building when you move in live and love in it. :)
A house is a physical thing. A home is a concept ("Home is where the heart is.")
From a grammatical point of view, you would say "I come to my house" but "I come home". We don't use "to" if the destination is a concept (eg. up, in, away, abroad).
