Not overly impressive but functional with plenty of room.
Look at those sweet fractional plates scattered around like lollies
Ha! Unfortunately they are only 1 inch plates so don't fit the Olympic bar!
I was just having a sort out

Here's my setup. Converted a couple bedrooms in my basement into my gym.

The finished part has a treadmill, rower and spin bile but it is too scarily messy with Christmas decor that I don't wanna show
Impressive DL but the picture in the corner makes it look like you are pooping flowers. Or is it just me ??5 -

Thanks to everyone who posted, while our spaces may not be exactly what we want, they sure beat nothing.0

My muilti-purpose "woman cave", greatly enhanced when my trainer closed his business.
I do have a shorter bar and plates not visible in this pic. I think I got the plate rack after these were taken.

Here's what the garage portion of my home "gym" looks like. It's very cluttered but very well equipped.
The rack's in the back w/an EliteFTS safety squat bar in it and a Rogue multipurpose bar clamped on top for pullups. Deadlift station is in front. Hard to see but there are a GHD and dip station on the left. An adjustable flat/incline bench, extra bars, plates, adjustable dumbbells, belts and a sissy squat station are on the right. Couple of plyo boxes and a vest are somewhere in the pic too. Not pictured are a LeMond spin bike and Concept 2 rower in the house and a mini-crossfit set up w/a sled, tractor tire, sledge hammers and battle ropes in the backyard.
Works well for me.
BTW: There's a 2 car garage further to the right. Can only use the trap bars and set up the farmer's walk handles when I move the cars parked there to open that space up. So, that doesn't happen very often.

My home gym is actually my kid's playroom/multimedia room. The stack of dumbells next to the box of yoga mats are really plastic toys because my kids kept fighting over my 2lb pink ones. Now they "lift" with me and I don't have to argue with them when I want my 2lb weights, which to be fair doesn't happen often anymore.2

Two or three weeks ago I helped a box move and the owner gave me the surplus flooring she was going to toss. I finished installing it this morning -- I cut scraps to fit on the end of the platforms to finish off the edges.
All I need to do is place contractor hoop loop carpet on the deadlift platform and below the squat rack to make it USAPL and IPF legal.

My gym is currently in my master bedroom.
It's a bit limited as I'm buying plates as I need them.
My second bench that I use for hip thrusts and my yoga mat for floor work.
I also have an over the door bar for pull ups, chin ups and leg raises.

I'm looking at getting a Titan fold away rack. I still want to park in the garage.1

Really like the all black look.
Here is mine.

I love seeing what other have done with their home spaces.

Backside supports are holding dumbbell bars, on top is curl bar.
Back to front usage - Squat rack, bench supports, safety catch, bent-over row/DL bar holder (no weights dropped on floor desired either), OHP/incline bench supports, incline safety catch, pullup bar.
Custom built for my size, so non-adjustable, so I better not grow or shrink.
I am needing to add some extra height to bottom support that is removable, for calf stretch mainly, but calf raises too.2 -

@capaul42 : Are you worried about the floors in your bedroom?
Nah. I don't drop weights. And the floor is only laminate. We plan on going hardwood in a few years so I'm not too concerned. I'll be moving to basement most likely in a few months when I've cleared room.1 -

I couldn't wait to move my gym from the garage to the basement. Year-round training at home.1 -
In the spring I'm constructing a large shed/small garage that will contain all my weight equipment. Its currently all on my back porch which I've enclosed "temporarily". Plus my wife has a recombant bike and an eliptical in our spare room.
Never thought I'd have quite so much fitness related stuff.1 -
This is both envy inducing and hilarious. My little kit in my one bed London flat. Pull my coffee table back via the rug it on to create a space for my rubber mat (thanks Beachbody for once!). Oh and all my mats are currently kitten ravaged, will replace once he's not so hell bent on destroying them. I also have a pull up bar (not in use as yet.....) and an overdoor suspension thing but I don't really have anywhere with practical width for it but it's there for some stabilisation and strength stuff when I can be bothered.
But, this is all to show it's not what you got but how smartly you use it. I get in my cardio, strength and flexibility in without ever setting foot in a gym in not much more than the space of a yoga mat.

These are impressive home gyms. I'm only starting to collect so far I have only a few kettlebells and dumbbells.0
