The answer depends on your life goals and style. But, in general, a 3 bedroom, 2 bath will be easier to resell.

Single? Middle-aged and childless? Retiring and traveling? For a place to live, close to jobs, family, and entertainment venues, a small, well-located condo may be the best answer. The advantages are ease--fewer unexpected maintenance expenses, less yardwork, usually access to recreation facilities and lower cost of ownership than a single family house in the same area.

Raising kids? Breeding dogs? Repairing cars? Enjoy gardening, nude swimming, loud music/Home Theater? Better buy a house, even though you'll have to spend more, or have less space, or a less desireable neighborhood, or a long commute. You'll have more personal freedom and privacy, though the neighbors will, too, so be sure you're the tolerant type.

Also, consider the HOA situation for the type of home you choose. Depending on the amenities of the subdivision, you may have higher costs beyond the cost of the home as well as committee oversight of any changes you may want to make to the exterior of your home.

I would suggest to look out for single family home, where you can live, move, eat and speak independently.
