SPINNER'S END
Canon: Harry Potter series
Promenade location: unknown; some single home property with a lawn
Owner/Resident: Severus Snape
About: "Spinner's End" is actually the street in Cokeworth, Great Britain, where Severus' childhood home is located (at the very end of the street). In fandom though it has come to mean the house itself. Spinner's End is in a poor Muggle neighborhood by an abandoned mill next to a dirty river. Most of the brick houses are also deserted or highly neglected, as is the case with the Snape residence as Severus is away at Hogwarts most of the year.
The main entrance opens to a sitting room with simple, threadbare furniture, a few lamps, a very small desk, and a fireplace with a few random items perched on the mantle. The walls are covered by floor to ceiling bookshelves crammed with books. Off the main sitting room is an open doorway leading to a kitchen and dining area. One of the bookshelves has a hidden door. Behind it is a staircase leading to the second floor (bedrooms - one of which was converted to house more books and a reading chair - and a bathroom).
In Promenade: The houses of Spinner's End were often divided to accommodate more families when the mill was in full operation. The other half of the house with the Snape residence has always (in Severus' lifetime) been abandoned. When it is brought to Promenade the empty space is occupied by that which is also of great significance to Severus: his office, potions classroom, and personal potions storeroom at Hogwarts. (His private quarters have been left behind though.) The main entrance of that half of Spinner's End opens to his office. A simple door to the side opens to his storeroom. An open doorway shows a narrow spiral staircase that leads down to the basement. The potions classroom covers the entire length of the building, making it smaller (less student tables) than its original dimensions at Hogwarts.
Spinner's End is located on its own property surrounded, not by paving as it was in Cokeworth, but by nice grass. It clashes with the building's appearance, making it look very out of place.
