I think they're serious. If so, it's supremely cool. But even if not it is, as Gaiman said, delightful to the inner 12-year-old. At least, to mine.

But cool.

...and since it's only a yard wide, it could be combined with ideas from the link you mentioned.

which was VERY cool - the house HAD a "secret room" and the couple hired this company to update the tech :)
In my home town - there is a private school (noble & greenoughs) that has a castle as part of the grounds - the cafateria and teachers housing are in the castle - and there are MANY secret passages in it (I've stepped through secret doors before there)
if I had the money to burn... ;)

And the garage is going to be way away from the house and also be a horse stable...that way, when David comes home from work every day he'll park there and hop on his trusty steed and come riding home on horseback...and I can be there waiting for him on the porch in my Eowyn gown being blown about by the wind and flags waving, etc.
...
And we'll have secret passages, too.
