Good point on the alcove, one I discussed with my wife in the winter when I noticed one particular area of snow would melt first. :) I have a 70's house with the semi-typical split level entry. When I bought the house it was only used for growing drugs, closed from both sides. So I popped the wall open and voila.
Clean up the seeds (the mini-grow was accessed from the top of the front hall closet), have proper electrical (not just a cord for weed lights) and cable run in and I have a TV spot. It has lots of space around the TV for ventilation, but perhaps I was still asking for trouble. Excuse the old picture...
