perfect space for reading and writing

Daily writing prompt
You get to build your perfect space for reading and writing. What’s it like?

A Small off-grid cabin, 10 feet by 16 feet, big enough to live in. Nestled in a quiet, well-forested lot, away from prying eyes, but not so far away from conveniences and high-speed internet. Heated preferably by a small wood stove or pellet stove. The room should be filled with my favorite author’s books, and they should be on bookshelves that line the walls. A small round wood table about 3 feet in diameter is off to one corner, and the fireplace is in the other corner. A window along one wall that is large enough to see out into the backyard while seated at the table. The window should be adorned with floor-length curtains that can be drawn for privacy, preferably black; if not, red, old gold rope sashes, the kind with tassels at the end for either color. Lighting should be dimmable LEDs that have an antique, possibly Edison light-type design augmented by candle sconces. The table in itself should be a pedestal design allowing a person to sit anywhere without having to battle table legs, and as mentioned previously round to avoid corners.

All I can think of for now but may come back to this one later and add to it.
