Welcome to the Pink Palace Apartments, that politely crumbling Victorian on the hill where Coraline Jones moves in with her parents—and promptly discovers the building has bigger secrets than its paint budget.

Think: restrained ornament, practical elegance, light wood tones, fine joinery, and rooms designed for living rather than posturing.
