Ideas for a converting a closet into a walk-in?

Has anyone ever converted a closet into a walk-in?

I'm seriously contemplating it. I'm tired of having so many vinos around and playing tetris everytime I pull out a box. Coolers are cheap and good sized, but in the South, temperature control is a must and coolers can't do that. Basements don't exist around here.

I see several pros:
1). Largest storage possible, plus can cellar wine and beer as well.
2). Price would probably be less than a cooled cabinet.

The cons:
1). Price is still high
2). It's fixed, so I couldn't take it with me if I ever moved out like a cabinet
3). If we ever sold, the new tenants may not like this conversion. I could try and keep it as minimally obstructive as possible.

Any ideas or projects that people have undertaken to do this?
