They included the possibility to finish another level of the attic and put in another set of stairs. It never got used and ended up as the pantry next to the kitchen, a pantry with stairs leading to a solid masonry wall.Ragnarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06087234298605439486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11904671.post-24883443145564995102010-06-17T07:01:53.270-07:002010-06-17T07:01:53.270-07:00you could building a temporary addition or you cou...you could building a temporary addition or you could buy 1 or 2 sheds (which can latter be scrapped or sold if you wish).nick khanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17326694116287269682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11904671.post-13363165445751372002010-06-17T00:40:40.398-07:002010-06-17T00:40:40.398-07:00I like the idea of a staircase to nowhere!

After awhile they discover a hidden panel where the rest of it is.
