A homeowner has shared her shock after finding a secret shower hidden in her home. Mum-of-three Hannah Otto says she's found all sorts of surprises while renovating her Hampshire home.
"Things have started breaking or appearing not as they seemed at first. So it's been a slow journey of improving and correcting areas of the house," she explained.
During the three-year project, the family has uncovered tiles laid on top of tiles and wood flooring laid over carpet.
But the concealed shower has to be the weirdest discovery of all. Recorded on camera by the mum, who regularly shares her DIY renovations with her 35,000-plus followers on TikTok, the secret shower has baffled both the creator and her fans.
Hannah, 32, made the discovery after removing tiles from the bathroom to treat a leak in the shower. But when she removed the tiles she revealed a whole shower behind the existing unit.
The video stunned The Otto House TikTok users, amassing over 12.8 million views and numerous replies from shocked fans.
"In 30 years of renovation I’ve never seen something like this," read one reply.
"You've got like a metre more bathroom there," said a second. "I call that a free extension," another agreed.
Meanwhile, several people wondered why the previous owners concealed the shower, and someone commented: "What? Why? The space must feel so much bigger now."
Unfortunately, Hannah has also been left in the dark.
"I have no idea. Our whole house is just layers upon layers," she replied. "By the time we're done with our house it will be twice the size."
Hannah and her family are halfway through renovating their home, meaning there could be plenty more surprises in-store.
"We're about half way through the renovation, so we will be busy with it for a few more years at least. The garden needs doing and at some point we might convert the attic into a bedroom," she revealed.
