I just had this under stair nook created which is directly at the entry to my condo. Before creating the nook, when you entered you would be walking into the wall. Only the entry door and this small nook are on this level. I was thinking of making a teeny mud room area... maybe some wall hooks and and bench, but I'm unsure because the space is so small and oddly shaped. Additionally, there has to be room to access and open the front door.
