Each inch of space was used to make the small kitchen work. Hanging storage works well in a small room like this.

The space under the stairs has been put to good use with a mixture of fitted shelving and wicker baskets.

An all over cream scheme gives the room a sense of space as well as a distinctly New England feel.

A smaller than average bath and a fitted shelf create space for toiletries and a minature basin.
