This doesn't necessarly mean clean but does mean you can get in the kitchen and that the table is not covered with plumbing bits so now not a good time. What is all this stuff about black box?

But then you need a bit of quirkiness in a house, don't you? You need a bit of cold, a bit of draught, an odd mouse, a frayed carpet, things that don't shut or won't stay shut (mine is a modern house and so doesn't count). Your house feels inspirational, like these blogs.
