A person's home is an extension of themselves. A reflection, some would argue. A cluttered and messy space might suggest a disorganized personality (guilty as charged) the same way a neat and orderly homestead implies a regimented and conscientious person.

1. Found this locked safe under the carpet of an estate home I recently purchased.
2. Our new to us house has a secret panic room that wasn’t included in the listing! Built in 1978 and i love this place!
3. A wall was removed in a Victorian house we are working at which revealed an old cast iron fireplace
4. I found a secret tunnel under my stairs in the house I’m renting.
5. Found the original wainscoting in our 1895 Victorian hiding behind the drywall 895 house in Massachusetts. Demo of an ugly closet in this room has revealed the original wainscoting! We were planning to replicate the original we found in the closet and apply it all around the room, but I guess now we don’t have to!
6. A carving found under old sheetrock
7. My dorm’s lobby has a secret door
8. I previously posted about uncovering Victorian tile under a faux (and poorly built) fireplace in my 1880 home. Here’s what we found after completely removing the bottom portion – hoping to find the same along the wall when the rest is removed
9. Old brass doorbell hiding under layers and layers of paint
10. Removed the carpet in one of the bedrooms to do up the hardwood flooring, found these ink prints from old newspaper underlay.
11. This old outlet we found under our carpets when redid them!
12. A bookcase in my new house opens up to a secret room
13. We removed some decades old linoleum flooring and found a linoleum “rug” underneath.
14. Our old Soviet built home has a bookshelf that can be opened into a tiny secret room :,)
15. Secret Room (panic room)? I’m an electrician and was working on an old home built in 1935. I found a secret door there.
16. Clearing the garden on a house I bought a year ago and found a hidden key from the previous owners
17. Hidden room in my great aunt’s old house
