The Man Palace (So much more than a man cave)


West side of Bldg
A lot of people have asked me to post some pictures of what I lovingly (okay not so lovingly) refer to as the Man Palace at Millerville.  Jay has wanted a man cave since the beginning and has spent many hours over the years designing exactly what he wanted.  Since the man can’t settle on just one hobby, the place kept growing to accommodate all of his interests and the result was a 3200 sf building with room for his model train layout, radios, guns and a workshop to build the wonderful bookcases and other well built furnishings he loves to create.  Now every woman I know thinks like I do- “Why does he need that much space?” Then every guy I know, says, ”How cool is that!”  Well it is very cool.  It has rooms for everything including his office so he can continue to work once we move, to keep supporting his hobbies.  He has done the majority of the work himself (walls, painting, some of the flooring, electrical etc.) and it is truly spectacular, but I still don’t get the need for 3200 sf- thus the nickname “the man palace”.  Bear in mind our new house is only about 2600 sf.   In the pictures you also need to notice an antenna tower (currently we have that one plus 3 more and hopefully no more!)  This is still a work in progress so none of the rooms are completed yet.
