Draco took Hermione the long way downstairs to the sun-drenched sitting room. This time she took a proper look at the house. It was jarringly modern for a wizarding home. Vast sections of the ancient walls had been removed to fit giant panes of glass. The exposed stone walls framed the picturesque views of the countryside in every direction. The house wasn’t large - just the upstairs bedroom suite and the downstairs living areas. The furniture was practical and comfortable whilst maintaining Narcissa’s standard of elegance. Hermione loved it.
