64

Picture a house, on the small side, with a tidy yard. The house is red. The front door is dark wood and sports a fall wreath. There are large trees, still holding most of their leaves. A terracotta pot sits next to the door bursting with dark orange mums. Now go inside.

The foyer is tiny but equipped with a little hat rack and boot holder. There's a braided rag rug, mostly red tones. The hall goes straight into a bright kitchen at the back or up the staircase to the second floor. To the right is a small parlor. To the left is a library. This is no "Choose Your Own Adventure", so go upstairs.

The stairs are wood. Kick plates are off-white, treads and banister are dark cherry wood. There's a neat runner up the middle that continues in the upstairs hall, red tones and cream. It is only because of the cream that the bloodstain is noticeable.
