We've featured an indoor playhouse and an indoor treehouse to inspire you. If you haven't yet drawn up your plans, hold off a bit to ponder this - an indoor playhouse built under the stairs.

This work of genius was created by Marcie and her husband. Rather than take up space elsewhere in the room, they built a charming playhouse right under the staircase. The location makes it clever but the details make it special. We love the shingles, the Dutch door, flower box, and lantern. Want to know what's inside? Run over to Marcie's blog Mossy for more details.

WOW! I love this idea.
ohhh man I love this!!!
Forget using it for the kids--this is so neat I want to move in! What could be more cozy and magical than your own shingled house with dutch doors and a mail slot under the stairs? Two thumbs way up on this one. Let's hear it for creative parents!
No stairs in my house. But my mom is buying a house and I might just have to suggest two stories so we can do this for all the little grankids. I would be happy if it looked half as cute as this one!
