The house consists of four rooms with front door leading into lounge. There is an attractive arched way through to the kitchen and open tread stairs lead up to the landing with two opening doors into upstairs rooms. The windows are glazed with thin plastic acetate and e original handmade curtains on wire & hooks remain. All the furniture that you see are included and to my knowledge, are original to the house apart from maybe the kitchen sink and cooker (see below)? There are also loft rooms.
Kitchen
Kitchen has fixed in plastic cooker and sink which seem a bit out of place and maybe later additions - more like 1960s plus they appear to be 1/16th scale whereas all other handmade furniture appears to be 1/12th scale. There is a sweet little wooden shelf with hooks and an odd wooden slatted piece below? Additional items such as rug, clock,plastic saucepan etc. plus an oversized broom and metal dustpan all included.
Lounge
There is a gorgeous hand embroidered carpet, handmade armchairs and wooden coffee table, all original to the house. A useful cupboard that opens is situated under the stairs.
Stairs & Understairs Cupboard
Bedroom
This is one of my favourite rooms as not only has it's original pale green wooden bed with bedcover and pillows, dressing table and stool, it has a fabulous built in wardrobe with sliding door! Inside the wardrobe is a tiny felt coat on a hangar. There is also a vintage china jug & bowl plus matching potty.
Bathroom
The bathroom is void of all original furniture sadly apart from a towel rail on the wall.
**UPDATE..the previous owner has since forwarded a little plastic bathroom suite which will be included in the sale of this house.
Loft Rooms
The back panel of the roof lifts off fixed pegs to reveal three fantastic loft rooms. Just think what you could do with these! The roof has been inscribed with ink to represent tiles.

Another nice touch is the very cleverly designed chimney handle with the original brick paper- wonderful!
Also included with this house is a small box of more modern bits that the previous owner added herself. I am keeping them with the house such as a plastic dog etc. (Not shown in photo).
THIS WONDERFUL HOUSE HAS BEEN MUCH CHERISHED BY PREVIOUS OWNER WHO IS SELLING RELUCTANTLY. THEY THEMSELVES BOUGHT THIS AT AUCTION ABOUT 15 YEARS AGO AND THIS HAS ALWAYS BEEN KNOWN AS "SUSANS HOUSE" AS THEY FOUND A COLOURING BOOK INSIDE WITH THAT NAME WRITTEN INSIDE. IT IS NOW TIME FOR THIS GORGEOUS HOUSE TO EMBARK ONTO A NEW CHAPTER IN ITS LIFE.
