Applesos, what a great idea! An added advantage is the chaos of remodeling will not impact you as much being a patio room. And my pals is very adverse to chaos around him! We have just completed getting bids on remodeling and I have some Good news for you! After working with a designer, adapted rooms can STILL be beautiful! We were concerned as well about lessening the value of our home, but that doesn't have to be the case. If you want to private message me, will share some ideas our designer suggested that were great! Donna
Donna, thanks. I'd love to learn about the ideas your designer suggested. I don't know how to "personal message" you. I'm new at this.
We have relatives who renovate homes for a living and I asked them to take a look at the patio and consider my idea. They weren't as keen on it as I am. They pointed out that we're going to have to get to pipes which are under the foundation in order to enlarge the guest bathroom into a wet room. They feel that rearranging the master bathroom would be easier. I'd have to see their design first. Also, we have pretty tight corners in our home, so I'd have to see how they'd accomodate that problem. One idea that I'm considering is installing a bidet. That might serve as a seat in the shower and take care of personal hygiene at the same time. Weird to be talking about these things, but I'm really trying to plan ahead.
