This is all contingent on the turret being approved, of course.
Had a revelation. Or…
Had a revelation. Or rather, Kevin did. Turret room will become my study, and then the first floor room that was going to be a combined study / parlor gets to just be a parlor. With a baby grand piano (one came with the house, in slightly sad shape, but mostly playable and hopefully repairable) and a bit of pretty seating. And then the back room gets to be a proper family room, relaxed and comfy. So Victorian!
I think that’s a wonderful idea if the turret gets approved. That takes your office off the ground floor, leaving all of it as public space, which seems more comfortable to me, anyway!
Cross your fingers for us. 🙂 It does mean my office gets smaller, but I think that’s a small price to pay for it no longer being multi-purpose.
