Home truths

    There are several flights of stairs within the home, but also an internal lift

    There's air conditioning in the master bedroom, the two basement bedrooms, the kitchen, gym, and cinema room (but not in the top floor)

    The unique bedroom on the lower level across from the work station is surrounded by glass walls, so it’s completely open and visible when the surrounding curtains aren’t drawn

    Although a comfortably-sized room, it’s a bit of a tight squeeze to get around to the other side of the bed in the second bedroom on the lower level

    Like most basement levels there aren’t any open views from the downstairs bedrooms, but they do look onto internal light wells for natural light

    You'll likely need some extra towels here
