I've often that about that if I could design a house, I'd have a room just like this. Like there would be a section of the house that was tower like and the only way to get to the room at the top would be to take an exterior balcony-like-staircase from the second floor to the room in question - the sole room on the "third floor".
There's just something about a room like that that makes it fell so isolated, peaceful and serene. And the exterior access makes it feel like a little adventure getting there. Like if the weather were bad you might opt not to go there because it would mean gearing up to make the trip.
Good luck getting there on a wheelchair... Or under influence of C2H5OH.
I want to build a house that has stairs that go nowhere and a bunch of hidden passages and rooms that only makes sense if you live there
I've fantasized about this.
I had some friends who actually DID build a secret room behind a bookshelf, where they had their home theatre or something like that I forget (they were more like close coworkers of my wife than my own friends, but they were super nice).
Ah, the Winchester Mystery House approach
