Бильярдный лофт
A private hall where stone, burnt wood and a full-size table hold the evening.
The loft is the largest room in the house, and the only one built around a table rather than a bed. A full-size billiard table stands in the middle of the floor under Edison bulbs; the bed sits along the stone wall, deliberately out of the way. It is a room that works as well at midnight as it does at nine in the morning.
The original masonry was left exposed on two walls — you can still read where the openings were once wider. Everything soft was added later: burnt-wood furniture built for the room, a shag rug over the boards, and a linear fireplace with a stack of logs beside it that runs on electricity and needs nothing from you but a switch.
The kitchenette is set into the far wall — enough to make breakfast properly, not enough to become a chore. The window looks onto the quarter's roofline, which at this height means stone, laundry lines and, at the right hour, the light coming off the bay.

The same walls, furnished twice
We keep the aesthetic of the past on purpose. Drag the seam: on one side the room as it would have been lived in when the house was new, on the other the room as you will find it.
Drag to travel · the 1880s view is an artistic reconstruction, not an archive photograph
This floor sat above what was, for decades, a working part of the port quarter — the streets below carried goods between the harbour and the market, and the buildings above carried the people who moved them. The room's proportions come from that period: high, plain and built to hold weight. During the restoration the walls were opened back to the original stone rather than replastered, which is why the surface behind the billiard table is uneven in a way no modern wall would be.
