It was originally a large house owned by Jacob Marley. However after Marley's death Scrooge takes over the house, turns part into an apartment and the rest into offices which he rents out. The house is located up a lane where no one would expect to see it and is furnished very, very frugally
Scrooge's house in "A Christmas Carol" was his counting-house where he worked as a moneylender and his lonely rooms where he lived. It is described as a dark and forbidding place, symbolizing his cold and miserly personality.
Cold, dusty, deserted, uninviting.
Answer:
Dickens doesn't give us much in the way of details. The house was partly given over to offices of merchants, Scrooge lived only in a part of it. He had at least one servant who cooked and cleaned so we can assume it was tidy enough, and later in the book when the servants are selling his stolen goods they report that the curtains and linens and the night shirt he was to be buried in are of good quality. Of the house and its furnishings he states:
Bob was a poor man on a low wage with a reasonably large family. His home would have been a terraced rented house with some 2 bedrooms, a parlour/kitchen and an outdoor toilet. It would have been heated by one cast iron cooking range fired by coal. The furniture mostly 3rd or 4th hand and repaired many times would be wooden in construction. The doors to the house as would the small limited windows have leaked heat and caused terrible drafts. The floors were nearly always stone slabs on top of cold earth. Light was provided by the fire and candles. the decor was to be very poor; in most cases the walls would have been white limed to keep them looking clean and to reflect as much light as possible.
It was originall Jacob Marleys large town house. However, after the death of Marley Scrooge takes the house as there are no other familiy members on the Marley line to do so. Scrooge, ever looking to make money changes the hose in to rentable flats and offices and takes up one area as a small flat (apartement)
We never actually see Scrooges home. This is because when Jacob Marley died Scrooge took over Marley's ledgers and deeds, in effect he took all Marley earthly belongings. This included Marleys home which Scrooge took for himself. On doing this he changed some of the rooms in to offices and hired these out leaving himself a small area for him to live in.
Scrooge's home is dark as a winter's night. His house is mostly dark and is very dreary.
He takes over Marleys house following Jacobs death in 1837 and this is situated from references within walking distance of the Corn exchange in London City
