Attic access door in closet.
For some unknown reason attic access doors in older homes are usually through a small scuttle hole cut in the ceiling.
Or the closet existed the attic entry was located there and someone wanted a shelf in the closet but didn t use the attic much so added the shelf without thinking about later owners wanting attic access.
Doing that frees up one wall for a bank of closets without having to cut it short to allow for the closet door.
My idea is to access the closet to the left of the door from the hallway rather than the bedroom and then do one wall without the built ins as a bank of closets.
