I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
And a bookshelf that's a doorway to a secret compartment.
I toured a house that had one of those! It was a pretty ordinary house, but in one room a bookshelf would swing out to reveal a little extra room - IIRC the owner was a carpenter or shipbuilder and did built it himself, just because he could. I think the hidden room was used as an office.

Fireplace, claw-footed tub, ENOUGH BOOKSHELVES AND CLOSETS, and maid service. Those are on my wishlist.
High on my list are series of pneumatic tubes. (Possibly cat-sized) and a secret passage/room through a bookcase.

My sister has been restoring an old cabin we own up in Canada, and was toying with the idea of ripping out the HOLY GOD WHAT WERE YOU THINKING GRANNY BEYOND GODAWFUL bathroom that's there now and installing a composting toilet instead. I say go for it, it can't possible be any worse than what's there now.
My grandparents up in New Hampshire have a wood stove in their kitchen/sitting room, and space heaters in the second floor bedrooms. And lots and LOTS of wool blankets. I love it up there.

I should dig up the pictures I've taken of my aunt's antique "Cottage Diamond" wood stove that they use up in the Catskills. If I could inherit one thing from that house, I'd take the stove.

I suspect the cats would not be so keen on pneumatic tube transport.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Lots of people have wood burning stoves for heat in my neighborhood; on really cold days you can smell them throughout my neighborhood. There was one attached to our fireplace when we first looked at this house, but the owner took it with him. Which was fine, because the smell of burning wood really bothers my allergies.

They have their own methods of instantaneous transportation if my mom's cat is anything to judge by.

They don't like being stuffed into the little carriers. It always makes trips though the bank drive-through awkward.
