I keep looking at the photos over and over. I am in awe of what was done with this space. Once the Missus and I are permanently settled in our final home (soon, I hope), I am so making something similar happen.

I will have everything filled and laid out in the next week and then it's the wifes decision as to what furniture goes in (I'm hoping for at least one leather wingback as a smoking spot).
I don't have the before pictures on here, I have to dig them out, but we opened up the wall between the two rooms, raised the ceilings back to their original 12 foot height, and everything you see except the two doors and some of the trim is brand new. The chimney was covered with plaster so we cleaned and exposed it. We added the tin tiles to the ceiling, and left the floors bare wood/subfloor because I like the look and character.
I can never get embedded pictures to work here, so I made an Imgur album. Follow the linky and see the fun! Absolutely gorgeous, well done. I know this is an old post but I am new here and this was worth joining just to see that space, congratulations!!![/div] |

I do not like the term "man cave". It has implications that are quite negative. It is a library, a study, and a smoking lounge.

I think the intent was quite complimentary. |

"Absolutely stunning" doesn't do that justice.
My safe is in my tiny library/study. I now have a mission - frame it in with shelving!
