A deep window alcove creates a cozy niche for guest beds

High on a bluff overlooking a historic lighthouse in Nantucket Sound, Dee and Jimmy Haslam built their vacation home on Massachusetts' Nantucket Island. One of the coziest parts of the house is the niche they created for guests. What a fantastic utilization of space with the small steps leading up to the top bed! The only thing I would worry about would be waking up in the middle of the night and stepping on the person in the bed below me as I tried to navigate getting to the steps.
