Pretty much the 'private chambers' models but with a house+ yard. When there is enough server space for a single FC to have 512 rooms, I do figure that the same could be achieved with personal housing.
It all comes down to personal opinion, of course. I must be one of the few people who don't have any problem with the current system, and I very much prefer the current beautiful neighbourhoods to a single instanced home that no one else can see.
I'm fine because they will add many more wards, and nothing stops them from adding more in future patches. Prices are also going down as hours pass (or that's what the patch notes said), so many people will still be able to afford a house by the next update.
Space is still limited, yes. Not everyone will be able to get a house, and not everyone will have the money for it either. Many games with house systems have limited space (though not all of them have such nice maps as FFXIV does; my Archeage house is a pain). It is a pity that space is limited, but if the only solution is to get rid of neighbourhoods, I certainly prefer to deal with the former.
tl;dr: I for one like the current system, and I'm eager to try my luck when the next patch arrives. Just wanted to add my two cents!
