1/2 Scale First Lady - Dry Fit

Woo! Nice!

If I were doing this as a modern house, I think I'd make the extension into a garage (either replacing the windows with a garage door or putting it on the blank wall). I always wanted a house with a garage and that seems like a perfect opportunity. But... probably doesn't make sense for Gothic. ;)

It would make a PERFECT garage....

There is a part of me thinking about keeping it off the house all together... since it's so big and I really have no idea where I will put it.... but then I remember this house is more on the rare side, and I suppose it should all stay together... plus I keep thinking it will make the perfect kitchen, with servants quarters above

TOTALLY AWESOME! I saw this and just smiled! Is the ceiling height of the room over the garage high enough for the servants quarters?

It might be a bit tight... I did put my single Tudor bed in there and it fit... I may have to mess with it a bit more before I decide for sure.... I could always lift the ceiling a little too... it would be pretty simple with this build.

So wonderful! Oh such stories to be told in this place, with so many rooms I can see your imagination soaring ;)

Over that kitchen area would be a super place to dry herbs, hang the meat, string the veggies up and have baskets and bags of flour and of potatoes, etc. A larder, of sorts.

I think a cool little secret passageway could be created between the third floor tower room and the triangular room next to it in the V of the roof.

If you then moved the straight wall over to the left a bit to create your 2 regular rooms, that triangular area could be a completely secret-ed off area.

Maybe they keep the crazy family member locked in there or all the gold or liquor or the ghosts. I have a vivid imagination.

LOL... Selkie! I LOVE these ideas....

this is the kind of house that makes your imagination take flight

it's so big, I didn't think it would be this large...I want one

Omg Kelly! I have the exact same kitchen table. We refinished it to remove the paint from the edge and base and left it natural oak. I actually love to work at my kitchen table too

that is soooo funny Debora.... I bought this table at a yard sale years ago now... I paid a whole whooping $2.00 for it.... I took it home, sanded about 6 layers of paint off it.... and left it just stained for years (there is a checker board hand painted on the surface you can't see at the moment. When I moved into the house I am in now I repainted the legs and edges... but now it is a total mess from working on it.... stained, scratched... etc.... but it still makes a good work table

My goodness, that's big! Can't wait to see what you do with it!

Wow, is that cute! This makes me want to try half scale! I like the suggestion of a secret passage to the tower room from the triangle room. I love the wallpapers you've chosen for gothic. What a treasure.
