Original front door of 22 Hyde Park Gate from the inside |
Private
houses in London are apt to be much of a muchness, The door opens on a dark
hall; from the dark hall rises a narrow staircase; off the landing opens a
double drawing-room, and in this double drawing-room are two sofas on either
side of a blazing fire, six armchairs, and three long windows giving upon the street.
