I inherited my house from my grandfather. When I divorced my husband, I was awarded it because it was important to me (that and my ex was a real jerk and I won full custody of the children). I have always wondered about this room that's in the house and what it was used for. It literally is a hidden room. If you were to walk around the house you wouldn't even see it, and it doesn't have windows either. The entrance is hidden in the back and on the side of our very narrow broom closet. Why it has double doors I don't know, but it does. It's carpeted and in one section has linoleum. I currently use it for storage because I already filled up the attic (I kept my children's clothing and other sentiments) and I don't want to have to move anything down to the second or third levels of the house. What in the world is this for? If anyone knows, PLEASE let me know!

Sometimes they are just built to 'get away' and have some privacy. Some used it for hiding moonshine or even people or even dealing bad business. There are lots of reasons it could have been built. I know when I build my next house I'm going to build a hidden room for my den.

I'm pretty sure thats a panic room. One of the really old houses I used to live in had one. They are great little rooms. I used mine to hide important documents and jewellry.

did you see the movie "Panic room"? maybe it's like that, Sounds cool, tho. If I ever build my own house, I would make something like that for myself., but make it next to impossible to find in the house.

Ummm.... a basement? Or one of those rooms to hide in case of an emergency like a tornado or bomb attack.
