Oooooh. In my brain the bale was off in it's own space, with room for a cot to be put up by it. Like, away from where mortal visitors may tread. And a regular living space with chairs, etc, that phone closet and a small TV that Connor and Jack plop down in front of until they are shoo'd outside...
A room upstairs with a bunk bed for the boys, other rooms in existence... around... it turns fuzzy around the edges
