The answer to this question depends on what funds were used in acquiring the house you bought. Even if you bought the house at the time you were single, if you used money from the marriage it could be that the marriage 'community' has a right to reimbursement for those monies paid. There are other factors that you have to consider when determining whether house is free and clear as your separate property or not.
