live in a house with hidden rooms and secret passageways

i juste looovve old town and we trying to move to one where there is micro street everywhere, you take one and discover all small worlds of there own… just great, but hard to get a place there.

about finishing our basement and suggested the other day that it should have a steampunk decor. I have always thought those pneumatic message tubes like they have at bank drive through windows or in old office buildings were cool and I am thinking it would be fun to install one of those between the finished steampunk basement and other parts of the house like the kitchen. I think somehow this idea fits in spirit with this goal.

What a cool goal and one I hope I fulfill the next time I move into another house. The coolest thing would be to build a home with cool nooks and whatnot, but if that’s the case I know it’s a long ways off. Unless I took a house and added on…Anyway, this is a long ways off goal, but a great one nonetheless.

ive in a house with hidden rooms and secret passageways

I would actually like to live in the Winchester Mystery House. xD Too bad that isn’t possible though.

I love old houses, I really want to live in one.
I know some houses like this that are for rent downtown in a city really nearby.
I hope I can rent one with a couple friends when I go off to college (:

Those Nancy Drew books have made me think this was a great idea since about the age of 7. I would love to design and then live in a house with secret passageways. It would be ridiculously awesome.

in that movie, susie q, at least i think that’s what it’s called…
where the girl dies in a car wreck, and she comes back like, 30 years later as a ghost, because a boy that is her eternal age moves into her house. and she wants him to help her help her parents or some business.
well. the point: in the movie, she and the boy find a secret room in her grandfathers closet.
there’s this tiny door and they go in and there’s this amazing room.
and ever since, i’ve wanted one!

for as long as i can remember, i’ve had dreams of living in a house like this. it’s like i’m living in the same old house i’ve always lived in, but all of a sudden there’s a new, obscure doorway, that leads to a narrow spiral staircase… and a whole new world. completely one of my childhood fascinations.
