2One's house or home (often used with the honorific お as お宅, to refer to someone's home, or, colloquially, as a polite 'you').

Where is your home?

Please give my regards to you and your spouse.
3A somewhat old-fashioned, formal term a wife uses to refer to her own husband; uncommon today, but still occasionally heard in polite phone or business contexts.
