Moving into a house can be time-consuming, from the long process of trying to find the perfect place to having to schedule the transfer of belongings.

According to Apartamentos.comThe average cost of rent in the US is now a staggering $1,515, which is an increase over last year’s cost.

New York is among the most expensive cities, alongside Connecticut and California.

A TikToker who found her dream home went viral on the app when she shared an unexpected feature.

Posting under the handle @rinnnraeshe showed herself unlocking a closed door that at first glance seemed to lead to a pantry.

However, when she opened the door there was nothing but nature.

Rinnnrae moved the camera to the left to show the roof of a room below.

Upon turning right, it was revealed that the property had a small outdoor space.

The TikToker described the bizarre door leading to the garden as a “fun surprise”.

More than 333,000 viewers liked the video and many took to the comments section to share their opinions.

Many said they would sit on the roof to admire the view if they had the door in their home, while others tried to share how the previous owner would have used it.

“It’s for when some places get covered in snow, so you have a place to go out if your front door is covered in snow,” one person wrote.

“These random doors in areas without excessive snow were used to move furniture to the second floor without going through the main house…” said another.

“It’s like Sims deleted a balcony and forgot to remove the door [laughing]”, joked a third.

Features of the old house

Modern homes no longer have the items below, according to Houzz.

  1. Dutch doors
  2. Fastening rails
  3. Telephone niches
  4. Stained glass
  5. transom windows
  6. Milk ports
  7. Apron front sinks
  8. Library stairs
  9. Butler Pantries
  10. Dish shelves

“Roof access is good, you can clean gutters easily,” commented a fourth.

“Oh, it’s a New York style rooftop patio… just watch your step, walk across the roof and set up a lawn chair and kiddie pool on that roof… you’ll be set!” another added.

A raised exterior door that appears useless because it has no steps is often referred to as a mother-in-law door.

Newfoundland, Canada has many homes with unique architectural features.

According to 99 percent invisibleIt has been speculated that the doors were added to houses in response to legislation that mandated that houses must have two doors.

Another theory is that the doors could deter burglars or provide a tax break because the house looked “unfinished.”
