Home truths

    This home has a few internal stairs to navigate between floors, some of which are spiralling and are quite steep.

    Be aware that there are quite a few personal belongings on display as this is a lived-in family home. Particularly this is true of the two bedrooms on the third level.

    There is a study on the second floor of this home, however it is out of bounds for guests and cannot be used.
