Yes, there is hope! Tho your dwelling is Hobbit-like, know that you can actually sit down and share a meal, a cup of coffee and muffins, or a card game with a friend, and not have to move into the hallway. This lovely, natural wood set is sturdy and attractive in nearly any décor--even can be considered for a dorm room. You can keep it set up or close up the set with stools underneath and the drop-leaf table tucked in and still hold a barn dance in your apt! I especially like the detail that went into the design, such as the tea towel holder on the side. You can feel like a real adult, complete with much more than doll house furniture. Excellent piece for the price.
