Insp. by myself - Do you have an attic?

[Wishydoo]

And if so, what do you keep up there?

I have a big old house. It came with a big old attic.
I have tons of clothes, toys, collectibles, books, housewares, and some furniture up there.

What about you?

Yes, we have a HUGE attic....

Everything under the sun and then-some is up there Coindidentally, I am currently attempting to empty it out and get rid of it all ....it is way too overwhelming

We have an attic but the portion that is actually usable is so small we don't even bother with it.

I WISH! I want storage space. I have an attic, but no attic stairs...

I hear ya. I did that myself several years ago...weeded it out...but the stuff grew back!

 

[Meriweather]

Yep...but not very convienent to get to.

We keep long term storage in it. Mementos......kids things for them someday.

My attic is finished. DD used it as her bedroom but decided she was lonely and moved back down to the second floor with the rest of us!!

WE have 2 large closets in it and then a crawl space which is overr my bedroom and is used for storage!!

We have an attic but it's not very usable.

We have an attic with so much junk in it you can hardly walk through it.

We have an attic with lots and lots of stuff in it. Boxes of old receipts, kids keepsakes, clothing that will eventually fit my DS3 that DS8 has outgrown, old yearbooks & photo albums. Who knows what else.

We had some work done a while back and had to empty out the attic -- what a mess. There were boxes everywhere. We should have taken the opprotunity to clean it out but we didn't. Someday we'll get to it.

2 years after we moved into this house (it was brand new) we raised the roof and added DSs bedroom, toyroom and a 3rd bathroom. There is still a good size closet up there on the littler side for storage besides the double closets in ea of the other rooms.

Yes we do have an attic. I keep DS and DD up there. It's finished and their bedrooms are up there!!

well, darnnit, if the crap grows back maybe I'll need to nail the door shut

 

[browneyes]

Nope, no attic. If I did, I'd probably keep junk up there though.

 

[musicalSaranader]

My house indeed has an attic. Aside from the air-conditioning unit, there's a whole lot of junk built up over the years!

Yes, I have a good-sized attic. This is the house I grew up in, so there are things dating back to when I was a baby (like an old baby carriage). There’s also at least one bed up there – my nephew’s youth bed. There are also tons of books, some clothing – including my mother’s wedding dress (in a trunk), holiday decorations, a desk, a room air conditioner, and luggage. And, probably lots more.

A year or so ago a new roof was put on the house, so everything up there is now covered with black dirt or dust or something. I’ve been unable to clean it all by myself. I’m hoping that now that my brother is moving back here from Michigan he will help me.

I have 2 attics
1 above our bedroom which has nothing in it
1 above the garage which has some old clothes and empty boxes
