A Custom Built-In "Window Seat" Reading Nook in Asheville

If you love to curl up with a good book... or if you have a "bookworm" in your family who needs a place to hang out... then this is the project for you!

I recently built a custom reading nook for an Asheville family. (It's not exactly a window seat, but it's near a window, so that's close enough.) The nice thing about this one is that it's got built-in storage underneath, a lot like the built-in platform storage bed which I recently made.

If you didn't see the "before and after," you'd swear it had always been there:

It looks deceptively simple, but it took a bit of extra effort to make it look original to the home. Let's do another slide show to see how it all came together.

If you need a little extra built-in storage and you live in the Asheville area, give us a call. We'll be glad to help you design the right piece for your space, whether it's a window seat, a reading nook, or something from your imagination.

Yes, I want a window seat!
