Welcome to Linley House



So I thought I would post some pictures of my house. It is the quirkiest house I have ever been in and I will attempt to explain why.

The first picture is the street we live on. If you want the address, just ask me and I'll give it to you, but I don't really want to post it on the web. Ours is that one on the left with the Roman triangle arch things.

The second picture is the door to the house of the lovely Linley Ladies, all eight of us. On the ground floor there are two double bedrooms on the right and staircases going up and down on the left. The staircase going down leads to a room with a toilet and a sink, then on to the classroom in the picture on the left, which houses that map of Bath. On the other side of the
basement is the room below, with a washer and drier, a freezer, and a working stove.













The stairwell on the ground floor is the picture to the far left. At the top of the stairs is this lovely little cherib picture (which reappears throughout the house).










This is the view from the landing on the first floor (which is really the second floor). The hallway on that floor leads into three rooms: the kitchen (to the left), the living room, and the dining room (the one with Tessa and Melissa, roommates).

The next picture is of the second floor (3rd) bedroom where I live with Annie. There is also another double on our floor and a room with two showers and a sink.

The best part of the house is the secret tower bathroom! Next to the shower room is a little door that looks like it would lead to a linen closet. But no, open it and you get a tiny narrow stairwell. The stairs lead to this tiny bathroom with a great view... the one in the picture below!
