“Full house”

Hi Strands fans. I kind of stumbled into completing today's puzzle, because "homeroom" just isn't a term in the UK.
In fact, when I got HALL in the bottom left and KITCHEN in the top right, I thought I was just collecting rooms of a domestic dwelling.
After connecting HOMEROOM, I was still none the wiser (and wondered why there wasn't an 'S' on the end)... until I connected LIBRARY, and realized that this isn't something most homes will have! That left me open to connecting OFFICE on the left-hand side, and STUDY just below the spangram.
Two answers were left to find in the bottom-right corner. I spotted two 'Y's, which I assumed would end both words, and that proved to be correct with PANTRY and FOYER.
