Bedroom 3 (Office)
This is the second largest bedroom in the house. It would quite happily hold a double bed and all of the necessary associated furniture. We are however using it as an office / study.
This room has a wealth of exposed beams and a lovely high ceiling. It also contains the remnants of the chimney breast from the rear cottage(s). The majority of the floorboards appear to be oak, although some are quite damaged and some have been replaced with softwood alternatives. This is probably due to the main wiring run being under the floor and thus damage by careless electricians!
Our plans for this room include exposing the oak floor and repairing / replacing the damaged or inappropriate boards, installing more appropriate lighting (to replace the modern spotlights!), removing the artex from the ceiling, replastering walls using lime plaster and to purchase/build some oak book cases to house a large part of our collection of books. |
