I take it that's an attic? So home heat will rise & help keep it warm? (You'll have to be careful it doesn't get too hot, depending on where you are, of course- but keeping in mind that the climate is getting "flaky" these days too.)
Yes looks like a converted attic, haven't seen the house in person yet. That's headed up the mountains in western Pa.

I see what looks like an aux heater on the right hand side, and with a window in the room ventilation should be no problem.

I just see a lot of older houses that have this done to them, I would actually sleep up there with the snakes plenty of room
