The kitchen

A 1948 kitchen with a new gas range in it. No dishwasher, and we are not putting one in.

The kitchen, photographed on a changeover morning.

Six-burner gas range from 2022, a full-size fridge with an ice maker, a chest freezer in the basement if you are cooking for the week. No dishwasher: the cabinets are the original ones and taking one out for a machine would cost the room its only long worktop.

There is enough of everything for eight — plates, glasses, cutlery, two roasting tins, a stock pot, a cast iron pan that lives on the range and does not go in water.

Gas range, no dishwasher, coffee: a filter machine and a stovetop pot

Same house, same changeover morning, same habit of writing down the awkward part.

The front room

Gas fire, the good sofa, and the window seat everyone ends up reading in.

The dining room

Round table, eight chairs, and the only room where all eight of you fit at once.

Main floor

The screened porch

The best room in the house from late April to October. No heat in it, so useless in January.

Up fourteen steep steps

The attic room

A double under the roof, up a steep flight. Hot in July, and the one room we discount for.
