Home/at home/in the house
Could you check whether all of (A)~(C) are okay in the following sentence? Thank you.
I'm [ (A) home / (B) at home / (C) in the house ].
I'm [ (A) home / (B) at home / (C) in the house ].

The first is casual. The second is standard. The third is odd and suggests that you are shouting to someone looking for you in the garden.
