*The Yamaguchi Manor*
Yukiko Elise Yamaguchi and Chou Irene Yamaguchi live in this splendid Manor, it was customly built by a architect who happened to be buisness partners with Yukiko, the great thing was it only cost her a fraction of the actual net value! It's a wonderfully built mini-manor, for the most part it appears as a miniature Chateau, it isn't as great or expensive as a normal mansion of course. It's more of the size of a large house, it has two floors which are well decorated and kept to by a maid. The only room left untouched is Chou's room, which Chou requested to be left alone.
The Mini-Mansion is located in a large densly wooded plot of land which used to house a old park, the park was long forgotten and the land was up for donation. The chance was seized by Yukiko who hired men to cut out a patch of land near the center of the park, the center happened to be a large hill which was where the mini-Chateau eventually ended up being built. The park has somewhat been restored to its former glory since Yukiko has cleaned it up, repairing the old park into her beautiful front and back yard. Now the question is where did all this money come from? Let's just say she had used up her parents inheritance.
First Floor:
Entrance Hall: The Entrance hall is quite grand, to get to the front doors one must climb a long narrow staircase which begins at the bottom of the hill, which eventually leads to the Yamaguchi Estate. The actual entrance is a pair of heavy oak doors which are actually quite difficult to open, luckily there is a ringer which calls the Butler who will be more than happy to open the door for you. The Entrance hall is a large Chandelier lit room, it has two large stairways to the left and to the right which lead to the second floor. If you continue straight foward on the first floor there is another pair of heavy oak doors which lead to the Dining room. To the left is a doorway leading to a short narrow hallway, the right leads to another hallway. The left hallway has two doors which includes Yukiko's study and the relaxation room, the right to the kitchen and butler's room.
Dining Hall: The Dining Hall is exquisite, above the dining table is a large Chandelier illuminating the room magnificently. The table itself is amazing, it's a long length cherry tree table capable of housing several guests, although when it's just Chou and Yukiko it's a bit awkward with such a long table. Chou's seat is on one edge, Yukiko's on the other. The room is set with red carpet and elegant wall paint giving it a royal look to itself. Luckily the carpet was on sale and the wall was handpainted by Yukiko herself, thus cutting some of the financial payments. The room is decorated by miniature palm trees which are placed at the four corners of the room.
Yukiko's Study: Chou's older sister's study is where Yukiko works out bills and funds and whatnot, she can usually be found here working at the small desk, compared to the rest of the house it seems a bit dingy, it's a small room without much more than a desk, and a bookshelf. The desk has a small laptop computer on it, the desk is littered with several documents and papers, along with half-eaten salads and empty cups of coffee and tea. The bookshelf doesn't have anything a child would enjoy reading just buisness manuals and things of the sort. The room is dimly lit by a small overhead light.
Storage/Maid Rooms: This is actually a small room, about the same size as Yukiko's study, there are a couple shelves holding food items, and other random storage things, in the far left corner is a doorway which leads to the Butler/Maid rooms. The storage room connects directly to the kitchen via a small doorway, the storage room is a concrete walled and floored room, it has no carpet or wallpaper and is quite cold, good for storing food and other things. The Butler/maid room's are small bedrooms holding a bed, a desk and a bookshelf, there are a couple of them for the maids and butlers living at the residence.
Kitchen: The Kitchen is large compared to the Butlers rooms, it holds several counters, kitchen appliances and other things one might discover in a kitchen. It is lit by several bright ceiling lights and is tiled on the floor and walls. It is connected to the storage room through a doorway and connected to a narrow hallway also by door. It is a boring room, no fridge to raid as all the food is in the storage room, the utensils are kept in cupboards, as are the plates, etc, etc... The pots and pans are left out on the various counters, stoves and sinks. The Butler cleans these up as well as uses these to cook up meals for the household.
Relaxation Room: If anything one of the most oddest of rooms, it is a direct replica of Yukiko's first clinic, it has a medium sized pool of hot medicated water, it is appearantly healthy for your skin using natural herbal medicines to give it a light green color and a suprisingly strong smell. The pool gives one the feelings of relaxation and allows for reflecting on ones thoughts. There are a couple massage beds which have no one stationed on them, but with the simple ding of a button in the room a maid will come to give treatment. The room has a calming aura and a refreshing smell to it.
Second Floor:
Yukiko's Room: The Bedrooms unlike the showoffy first floor appear normal, these rooms had to stay normal due to budget issues. Yukiko's room consists of a queen sized bed with pillows and all the other things on a normal bed, she has a dresser, a bookshelf and a sidetable. Respectively she has books, clothing and a alarm clock in and on these things. To the far end of the room is a door which leads to her bathroom.
Chou's Room: Chou's room is smaller than Yukiko's although it still holds a small bed, a dresser, a bookshelf and a toybox. It also has a large walk-in closet and a bathroom like Yukiko's. The bedroom has a cute puppy clock on the wall as well as having butterfly wallpaper and soft carpeting. Her room though is quite messy, she has toys all over the floor although no clothing, she is quite organized with her clothing and places it neatly inside her closet and dresser, she just leaves the toys out to annoy her sister.
Living Room: The Living room is located on the second floor, it houses a small fireplace and several arm chairs, it's not that large and basically only houses that. It holds a small TV in the opposite end to the fireplace, there are arm chairs there too. It is lit by a small Chandelier which hangs on the ceiling respectively.
Library: The library houses many books for Chou to read, there are several shelves, although it isn't very big for a library it houses a decent number of books. It has no lighting and is only illuminated by large room height windows. There are no chairs or couches to read on, if one wishes to sit it'll be on the ground or they will goto another room in the house, most preferably the living room.
Bathrooms: There are three bathrooms in the house, funny enough all of them are on the second floor, a error in the planning of the house. Two are in the bedrooms, one in the second floor hallway. The bathrooms are nearly identical, they each house a large bathtub basically the size of a miniature swimming pool, they function in the same way as the pool in the relaxation room having a herbal medicine button. There is a small massage bed in the bathrooms with the same maid call button as the relaxtion room. There is a toilet, shower and sink as all bathrooms should have.
Grounds:
Japanese Tea Garden: The Garden is located in the front yard, it is well kept and decorated, it houses a large pond with swimming Koi, there is also a small bridge which goes through the pond to reach the front doors, the pond is located at the top of the hill right in front of the manor and thus doesn't have a downward slant from the hill. It actually connects the stairway to the manor with the small bridge which is connected to the stairs. Leading and exitting to the stairs to and from the manor. There are several beautifully kept Sakura trees in the garden other trees live within it as well such as oak and pine trees. Several animals live in the garden beyond the Koi including local wildlife such as frogs from the park, squirels, and several birds.
Surrounding Park: The Surrounding park is mainly just trees, there isn't anything else there. There are some old rusty benches and a couple old street lamps that no longer work, but beyond that just trees and animals, the paths are basically all worn out so you can't even tell where the park's walkways used to be. The only path visible nowadays is the path leading to the manor at the entrance of the park. The trees have been cut to fit the path leading to the manor the entrance to the park had a large sign saying the park name, but that has been reworded to say Yamaguchi.
