How do you say "My house is nearer than your house from here" in Arabic?

One says: bait-ii 'aqrabu min baiti-ka min hunaa.
Another says: min baiti-ka, bait-ii 'aqrabu min hunaa.
Another says: bait-ii 'aqrabu min hunaa min baiti-ka.

Which one is right?????

Thanks in advance.

Best wishes,
Haruko Sakaedani
