Within the house is a huge, light-filled studio space, that has been used by an accomplished weaver, with a cork floor and an adjacent greenhouse room. As a separate building, there is a second 516-SF studio space, that was used by an accomplished potter. Their equipment didn't stay, but lots of their good, creative energy does!
