Strongkettle's Boardinghouse (Strong-Kettle's Boardinghouse)

A 3-story building, The Boardinghouse is ramshackle Run down and in need of repair. It is furnished with sturdy but unfashionable pieces in need of updating. Rooms are decorated with an eclectic mix of items, each room themed differently. Garish wallpapers, bright colours, odd knick-knacks.   The first floor contains most of the general living areas for the boardinghouse and a once-grand entrance hall doubles as a service area for people looking to hire a suit for a term or to settle and pay bills There is a counter close to the front door with a locked cabinet under it containing numbered room keys Behind the counter can be seen a large spiral staircase leading up to the second and third floors. A Large Dining room adjoins the entrance hall through a set of never closed double doors. The living area adjoins the dining area through an open archway and the kitchen is through a single door off the rear of the dining area. The Common room features a floor-to-ceiling wall of bookcases with many eclectic books, a fireplace and an odd mix of sofas, lounge and armchairs scattered around the room. The Dining room has enough seating on two long tables for 12 people. The Kitchen is small but has all the necessary accoutrements.   The second floor is reserved for rooms for the boarders, Each suite has a bedroom and its own ensuite bathroom, There are 4 good sizes suites on this floor, 2 with double beds and 2 with 2 single beds in each.   The Third floor is split into two main sections, to the left is Mira's Private rooms, As the only member of staff who lives on the property she has reserved half of the top most floor as her private space, it has a bedroom, ensuite bathroom as well as a private sitting room and separate office. The rooms in this section are smaller, but serve Mira Strongkettle's needs.   The Other side of the Third floor is split into the two remaining rooms, these are similar to those on the second floor, both containing 2 single beds each and having their own private ensuite. The front garden is small but well looked after, boasting bright flowering shrubs in the spring and a tiered fountain that doesn't run, a gate off to the right leads to a small orchard at the side of the building. To the rear of the building, there is a skinny alleyway where extra supplies and gardening necessities are kept in a locked shed.   Owned and Run by Mira Strongkettle. Staffed by a Scullery Maid, A Cook and a Butler. A Gardner also visits weekly to care for the garden and orchard.
