Now, this is for people who want something highly unique and creepy. West Lodge was built in 1836 in the Greek Revival style. It was commissioned by The Newcastle General Cemetery Company as the northern entrance to the Old Jesmond Cemetery, but the building's been converted to a 1bd, 1ba, 996sqft home, and comes w/its own crypt. Located in Jesmond, Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK, they are accepting offers over $175k approx. USD.

Here's the main entrance.

This home requires some creative decorating. This is called a studio on the floor plan. So, great for artists and creatives.

This is such a large space and still has the cement floor. Looks like the current owner uses it as a quilting space.

There's flooring in here and doors to the garden.

It's basically the main living area.

It has a cute little kitchen.

This is the single bedroom. It's kind of odd having a glass insert to make a window well.

The one bath is a shower room with a nice stone wall.

Hello. Room for 6. Look, it's got lighting too.

According to the listing:  Externally, West Lodge enjoys a mature west-facing lawned garden, with a sunken entrance to the former crypt, now providing extensive cellarage. So, this is "cellarage" where you can have a nice rumpus room/bar - if you could somehow tunnel under to connect it to the house from inside, it would be ideal.

The garden is quite lovely.

Crypt reference photos

Crypt reference photos, for your Locked Tomb needs. Lund Cathedral, day after TLT larp, because I am nothing if not a nerd with interests that mesh, also an unrepentant goth, and I was damn well going to visit that fancy big church when I had the chance and was all hyped up on TLT-juice!

I'm no computer whiz to do photo edits, but I figure TLT fan artists might still find these useful.

Also TOOOMBS and CRYYYYYPTS and CATHEDRAAAALS.
