There was a reading nook with a view on a garden. Books were littered all around - not that it was surprising but it made him chuckle - pillows and blankets  were laid out on the nook as well as the leather sofa for comfort. Many empty mugs were on the counters, chairs even and small tables. The whole thing seemed to extend on one floor, as the back was probably accessible from the hallway beside the kitchen cabinets.
