Hidden Home Library

Converted space above the garage into a secret library.

This is my wife's library (mostly her books, my books comprise a single bookcase). The decorations are hers as well, I just pick up the furniture from the antique stores. For those who wonder how much this costs - it was approximately $80k for the construction.

I put his up originally because I was tired of showing photos from my phone to my friends and family. The response is truly unexpected, as well as your kind comments. Thank you.

I honestly do not know what I love more, this absolutely gorgeous and cozy library, or that you entry it through a hidden door in a book shelf. This is a dream, one day I’ll aim for something like this as well.

This is one of the most beautiful, creative and original things I have ever seen. I cannot imagine why you would call yourself mediocre, when you're clearly a VERY talented and thoughtful person. Thank you for sharing this with everyone. It's simply gorgeous.

Love this beautiful library! That's everyone's dream if they love to read . I love it when their was absolutely no tv or radio in it. Just a few nice places to sit and enjoy reading until your heart is content. Its exspecailly nice to have a fireplace if you a bit cold and want to warm up while enjoying the peace and quiet. Put in a coffee maker and a small fridge to put your creamer in and some cool drinks. You wouldn't have to leave that room for nothing until you need to use the bathroom or go cook dinner or clean up the house. But that's your treat having a library like this. You worked for it and earned it.

Breathtaking, but comfortable and livable; I could spend all day here. so many different seating areas, work/reading tables, beautiful woodwork and shelves for days filled with books. Cannot believe that this is in someone's home. This is the best home library that I have ever seen.

This is absolutely beautiful!!!! You can tell how much time, effort, and heart went into this project! It's a dream come true (for me and many other viewers)! You have an incredible collection and sense of design taste (I'm jealous of your mystery section) and I love all the little details such as the mouse, the Hercule Poirot statue and the stained glass window (all of the little décor details referencing books) - plus making the bookcase door look like and elevator on the inside - brilliant!! What a wonderful room to spend time in!! Thank you for sharing!!

Such an awesome personal library. Well laid out, and furnished. For the size of library, it blends well, yet there has the appearance three different “sections “ in the library. The ladder, stairs, desk, are real nice accents. I love to explore this library. Very cool.

I've watched this video several times now. I can't believe how stunningly rich, cozy, warm, inviting and down right gorgeous this library is. Add to that the hidden room aspect and this is by far and away the best home library EVER!!!

This is my dream. If I had such a library, I wouldn't have left the house. EVER.
So happy for the owner! I also appreciate the books you got there!

[TraciFix]

I don't think I'd ever leave that space, it's gorgeous, cozy and so warm and inviting

[inkland]

Anyone with these many books and such a fantastic library would be one of the happiest persons in the world.

Thank you very much for sharing this!

That is the most beautiful, perfect library I have ever seen! The only thing it's missing is a sleeping cat. :)

This is how I imagine the Ravenclaw common room… absolutely gorgeous

Is that an old card catalog for a table?! Wow. That's so uniquely creative. The space is breathtaking. Warm wishes from Minnesota! ❤️❤️❤️ May your pencils always be sharp and your colors never bleed.
