    When I was younger, My mom and stepdad bought a half million dollar house that had a secret guest house connected to a giant pool. I found it by accident, I fell into the wall in my closet and it opened into a hallway leading into the front entrance. It was a complete house too. The bathroom was beautiful with a brass bathtub and stone shower with a waterfall showerhead. They gave it to me to use as my living space and I also had my bedroom in the main house. I was fourteen when my mom let me have the guest house. I am handicapped and it helped me get around the house. We lived there for 15 years. I loved it. I even cleaned the pool for my family so we didn't need to pay for a cleaning service. I would get my handicapped floater chair and the supplies, and enjoy the pool while cleaning it. At the end I would put the tablets in and let it do it's job. My mom and stepdad worked hard to afford that house. For awhile we were well off. They took good care of me too. They both passed away, mom passed in 2017 from cancer, my stepdad passed away two years ago from heart disease. R.I.P ❤️😭 I miss them very much.

    My parents and I moved into a house when I was 12. We lived there 4 years before we were doing some renovations and found out there was a secret room behind a wall that only opened when you pushed on a VERY SPECIFIC and SPECIAL spot. It was a large room. About the same size as our living room which was 50x75. My Grandpa who was helping us renovate the house actually replaced the wall with a bookshelf and then hid the room again after renovating it and turning it into my bedroom. It was the coolest bedroom a teen could ask for.

    So I'm an electrician and a carpenter. In response to the attic with loose insulation, I see this quite often. Technically, it's not a finished room, not even close. Everything is completely exposed, no shear, drywall, shiplap or anything covering the stud with probable electrical exposed. Usually you will find electrical or ventilation throughout these spaces. It makes for a great access point for doing wiring. More than likely there is a breaker box below it or in the room on the otherside. It's also likely that lights or bathroom fans are wired and vented through the floor and exiting the wall leaving the house. These spaces are conveniently when you want work done but don't want to have to patch drywall. It makes it quick and easy.

    I recently had the pleasure of creating a secret room for a young girl. The new house had an unused area in the attic, which I mentioned to the father would make a cool hideout for kids. He liked the idea, and as I was already there to install cabinetry I had built, he asked me to add it to the job. We converted nearly 280 square feet of space, accessed by a ladder hidden in the bedroom wall, behind a sliding mirror like the one at 4:00. That little girl was beyond happy to learn of her secret room, and I was happy to have finally taken part in such a fun project.

      I almost bought a house owned by a contractor. He had taken a studio house, added a door that became a hidden hallway to a master bedroom that began a huge 2 story brand new constructed house behind it. The best part was one of the bedrooms upstairs had another door that had a staircase leading down to the 3 car garage. I knew my young teenage son would love that room, but we got outbidded. If I ever get rich, I will build a huge house similar to that.

    My Uncle was a developer and built custom homes. In one of his homes in Colorado Springs he had a secret wine celler. First this house was HUGE. 2 stories. About 8,000 square feet 4 bedrooms, plus master suite, full finished basement, billiard room plus a good sized one bedroom apartment with a separate entry. It was for a maid, house keeper or mother in law. It had two garages. One on the first floor and one on the basement level. The back of the lot bordered a nature reserve so nobody could build behind them. (Oh yeah, the secret wine cellar.) A about 21:30 in the video the show a wall covered in wood strips about 1 inch wide. My Uncle had that same wall in the kitchen. You pushed a button in a kitchen cabinet and the door popped open about 2 inches. You opened the door to a secret stairway to the wine celler in the basement. It was totally cool.

    My folks' house has a 1/4 turn spiral staircase from the entry foyer up to the 2nd floor. Nearby (hidden within walls & closed off with a door) is the set of stairs leading down to the basement -- they're straight, but make a 90-degree turn halfway down. As you might expect, the basement stairs are just a simple, basic staircase that follows the downward angle & path of the fancier curved staircase going up... But I have a friend who, after almost 50 years, still insists that there's actually a secret passage there. I've spent a lot of time over the 50+ years my family has owned the house looking and I can tell you there really is not a passage there (the measurements tell me you'd have to be a half-size munchkin to fit between the lower surface of the upper stairs and the ceiling for the basement stairs. So... imagine my surprise when I did some renovation work in the upstairs bathroom (in the "master suite" that is my parents' bedroom) and had to remove a screwed-in panel in the back of the closet to access the pipes for the shower... only to discover a four-foot square "room" with no ceiling that opened directly into the area beneath the roof. Why that space wasn't used for the closet, no one can tell us... but it was fun explaining to my friend that he had the location of secret spaces in the house totally wrong...!

    I always wanted to have a house filled with secret passages. One example of one was the first room you entered when you went in the house was a little library, and when you closed the front door you could barely see it behind bookshelves. Then, on the other side of the room would be one of those bookcase doors. When you went through that one you'd be in an identical room. I figured that if someone found the secret door by accident, they'd think there was another one, but there was really a concealed trap door under the rug.
    Another one is kind of like that fireplace design, except there was an actual fireplace with a sliding heat-proof panel in the back (so you don't burn your hand when someone lights a fire) which led to a ladder to some secret room.
    But I think that stair idea was absolutely incredible.

My mom was in the hospital having my sister and my dad was picked up at the bar across the street from the hospital ( in those days that's where dads waited for babies to be born) and put in jail because he had red hair like Starkweather.

I have never moved into a new house without planning a hiding place and escape route. People who think they can shoot their way out of a home invasion need to take that thought to its natural conclusion. In order for you to have the upper hand, you would have to never relax, but be constantly on the alert for someone to burst in with their gun trained on you. Do you sit in your home, prepare meals, sleep and sit on the toilet with a gun trained on the door? No? then give that bravado up because it's far more likely you're going to have your guns taken away and used on you.

Plus the abandon homes, and anything new tech. I am wanting to see the ultimate house with a surprise inside that is die for awesome. I have seen some great stuff though. There use to be a house on YT that had a park/playground inside the home for the kids. I don't remember if they had the no sun disease it has been a long time since I saw it, but i think they did. I tried to find it one time to show someone. Never did find it.

    I lived on a former plantation as a child. There were intact slave quarters, including indoor ones over the former kitchen, which was a garage when we lived there. the more modern kitchen was next to it, and on either side of the door into the house was a pantry. There were 23 foot ceilings and each of the pantries had deep shelves from floor to ceiling. deep enough for large burlap hags full of grains and beans, etc, or cotton or wool, as the lady of the house was a well known weaver and we think one of the pantries was for her supplies. In the one we used for food, my brother and I climbed the shelves to the top and discovered an entrance to the indoor slave quarters. The quarters were an attractive apartment with a large central room with a large fireplace in the middle and opposite it was a wood bin with a bedroom on either side. To enter the secret passageway to the pantry, one would remove the logs and the lose boards at the bottom and there below it was the top shelf of the pantry. It was truly genius and no doubt provided the enslaved with extra food. I believe there was also a space in the basement that could have been used to hide runaways as it was so dark we could never see into it even with a flashlight. I once found a game made of perfectly round black stones lying in the dirt just outside the darkest area. I've always wished I could go back and explore the space with new LED flashlights.
    I now live in a house that was built in 1860. The last owner found some Confederate money and papers in the wall of the first owner's law office. I guess when the money was devalued he never bothered to retrieve it. We pulled out a book case in the kitchen and found a recess deep enough for the original stove - which would have been vented up the chimney. The chimneys no longer function, but I'd like to finish that recess out and replace the book case with one that slides out, or turn the whole thing into a deep cupboard for appliances. Nothing really thrilling in that house, except for the ingenious construction and the careful placement on the land that makes it cool year round - nobody does that anymore, even when people build their own.

    I built a Torando Shelter room/ Gun Safe at the end of my Master bedroom closet. (6' w X 4' D X 8' H) We have a wrap around porch and that part of the pporch was just wasted space. And that meant the Shelter didn't take up and of the walk in closet space. The access door to the shelter is a shoe shelf that swings out, totally hidden if you don't know it's there. Then the safe type pocket doors are behind it.
    It's made from 3/8th amored steel plates welded together and lined with Armor Core Sheetrock insde, painted inside to give it a normal room appearance. It has 2 wall mounted bunk beds that are big enough for 2 to sleep on or fold the upper bunk down to make the bottom bunk into a couch. There is a small fold down table on one wall that is big enough for a Ipad. Some shelves above it, and around the wall above the beds. And on the wall above the table is a 23" TV and 9" CCTV monitor so we can see the weather conditions outside and if any damage is done to our home before we exit. The lower bunk has stotage for fod and water. And there is a portable toilet in the room too! It have a solar panel outside and a Lithium battery inside topower the TV's and ventilation fan. And there is a 2 & 10 meter ham radio inside the room with a flexible car type antenna mounted outside. I am friends with my Local PD so if my house it hit by a tornado they know where to come look for us. Plus my wife is a member of the National Weather Storm Spotter Organization. It's a small room meant for just a few hours. But could sustain us from bad guys if need be!
    If I had more money I'd install a 6 person Bomb Shelter in the back yard.

    Many of the hidden rooms in old houses were actually part of 'The Underground Railroad' . This was a collection of people willing to hide slaves as they made their way to freedom. They would have 2 entry points hidden in places like at the back of a closet wall, and a kitchen cupboard. Growing up, my friend lived in a simple old farmhouse. It had a hidden door behind a kitchen cupboard that lead to a tiny staircasestairs to an attic room. The other door led from the attic room to a false panel at the back of the master bedroom closet. Very cool until you think of it's purpose.

    Upstairs, on either side of my 2 window dormers, are small 4'×4'×4' boxy spaces. I only found these after we had a major house fire. Apparently, our local government regulations require certain sized "Rooms" have specific human sized egress rules for safe evacuation in, guess what, case of a fire. For these tiny rooms to be 'rooms' they'd each have to have a 3'×3' window all so, in a fire, a person could crawl out to safety. My contractor was LEGALLY required to COMPLETELY seal the tiny rooms making them impossible to enter. But (*wink wink*) not before accidentally putting a rough floor over the insulation & suggesting a few TH-cam "How to" videos. Coincidentally he left perfectly sized, cabinet doors, hinges & trim. TaDa! Extra 'secret' storage.
    I did use screws to close & secure the cabinet doors. Eventhough the doors are hidden in the upstairs closet, having kids around meant taking no chances. Out of sight storage (ie a wedding dress) is one thing endangering kids is another. I don't feel too bad, the County is taxing us for usable & unusable space equally so SAFELY using what I'm paying for just makes sense.
    Maybe simular laws are why there is no entry to some of these secret places.

It opened horizontally, and behind it was a metal space that appeared to be bottomless. Fortunately (maybe? ;)) my mother found me inspecting it via a stool in hopes of discovering a SECRET SLIDE! Alas, it was only a laundry chute, and my mom was horrified that I was considering a test run. She told me to never, ever get inside of it because it went down two stories to the cement-floor basement. But I think I need to have a house where I can create one! Either a laundry chute or a SECRET SLIDE :D -- or both.

We still have to be able to get in there, because that is where the main line of the water is. At first I wanted to do a door at the side of the stairs, but then you have to pull a bit of acrobat stuff to get in and out. And if someone is either too tall or too fat, for example someone of the water company, they wouldn't be able to get in there. So I was planning this sort of stairs aswell, which would made easier access.

      Who’s to say that the owners of that place aren’t among the 0.1% of Elites in America? They wouldn’t worry about spending w/o limits fixing up that space. Money, for those types, isn’t an issue.

      finishing that space would be less expensive than adding a room because the structure is already there.

      Not that expensive. Add some outlets, sheetrock and some paint. Said the flooring was already finished. Make a great study or just a private space. Need a bigger opening though. LOL!

      @localroger 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I concur. It was probably sealed off and insulation scattered on the floor to reduce the HVAC bill for the rest of the house, because properly finishing and insulating it as a room would have been pretty expensive, and whoever did that probably didn't need the space.

      Given that they have a room they use on the same floor it shouldn't be that big a deal to insulate, lay down a floor and put up drywall. It looks like our attic, except ours is a floor above our living areas, Ours has a - well, I'll call it a port for want of a better word - a hole with a cover on the roof ( 4 floors up, 1860's house with amazing mountain views). We've talked about putting a tower in with windows all around and a reading area. We also want to put a floor in over the joists so the attic itself can become a much needed storage space. The problem is access. When we moved in, there was a teeny hole in the laundry room right below it. The size an 1860's man's shoulders fit, but not modern men. We made a larger opening with a standard pull down attic ladder, but using the attic for anything is pretty hopeless due to the ladder access. Those pull down stairs in the other house intrigues me, but it's all much tricker than the house in the video

    I have a secret compartment in my house. So basically it's a 2 platform shelf that goes into the wall. But if you look hard enough there's an Alan wrench stuck in the side that's what locks it in place. and when you pull it out you just have to pull on the cabinet and it opens up via hinges and reveals a secret storage room about 10 ft in total area. We lived there for a year until we found it we have no idea if the previous owners even knew about it.

    19:44 This is pretty common, especially with custom built homes. It's called a Bonus Room. Bonus rooms can be finished at the time of building, but probably more often they are left unfinished. Depending on the layout of the home, adding a bonus room at the time of building can be relatively cheap. What isn't cheap is finishing the bonus room, and paying taxes on it as "living space" ... Think of it like an addition that could be built really easily if they need it, but they don't have to pay taxes on it until or unless they do.

      Depends on building code where you live and/or if you try to sell it after the room gets finished without a permit. Any inspector worth a crap will be able to spot an illegal addition. I've seen people have to "undo" additions because they didn't get a permit.

    • @stevenmccrickard1401

      A huge downside to finishing this type of space without a permit and inspections (in my area) is that when you go to sell the house you can't include it or the square footage in the listing, even if you disclose that it was unpermitted you don't recover your investment. Additionally at that point you get caught and fined.
