I have some of those recess areas about 30cm in depth and I will be converting them into storage areas by installing sliding doors and raising the base slightly (to protect from water). They can be used to store small items.

My reno? If I am lucky I will get my keys in end January. So I still have to wait long long.... I bought my house by going to the seller's agent directly and even though she took our commission I believe she acted on the benefit of the owners by booking the first appointment late since they haven't gotten a new place then. According to her the second appointment will be one week after CNY. But last Saturday when I went down with my IDs to take measurements at the house the owners say they have gotten a place and are working towards handing over the house to us by end January. They are very nice people :).
