3 Ways to Get More Value From a Sunroom
Sunrooms are easy to install and maintain and help increase your home’s livable space and value. “A high-quality sunroom addition is a smart, practical way to boost enjoyment at home. With year-round use and complete versatility, the possibilities are only limited by one’s imagination,” says Mike Malone, President of Sleepy Creek Sunrooms.
Here are three ways to get more value out of a sunroom in your home.
1. Build the Favorite Room in the House
In today’s modern family, the sunroom is the one place where everyone comes together to connect. A great way to furnish a sunroom for extended living space is with comfortable chairs, surround sound speakers and plenty of greenery.
A sunroom is versatile, and its flexibility allows for other uses as your needs change. Add a dining set, and the room becomes the ideal place for doing schoolwork, sharing family meals or playing games together. A sleeper sofa or daybed turns the space into a memorable guest room where overnight visitors can gaze at the stars as they drift off to sleep. Weather permitting, you can open the windows to let in all the sounds of nature when birdwatching.
With floor-to-ceiling windows, fresh air and a gorgeous view, the sunroom will quickly become the favorite room in the house.
2. Boost Health and Wellness With Natural Light
Sunshine and natural light are necessary for staying healthy and well. These elements provide essential vitamin D to help support a healthy immune system. They also promote improved mental well-being and better sleep.
But for many individuals, basking in natural light only occurs when the weather behaves. During the long winter months, people spend most of their time indoors, shut out from the sun’s rays. An all-season sunroom is a year-round investment that captures sunlight and floods the space with warmth.
The plants you may choose to grow in the space equally benefit from the plentiful natural light and the sun’s warming rays. That can translate into a thriving home garden with organic herbs and vegetables that encourage healthier eating.
3. Entertain Your Guests With Sophisticated Style
If entertaining is a family favorite, a sunroom adds instant sophistication to any event and is far more appealing than the traditional dining room. Host an evening dinner party with a spectacular ambiance of visibility and openness. A furnishing arrangement that promotes conversation is ideal, and you can choose indoor-quality pieces since your sunroom protects them against outdoor elements. Sparkling lights overhead can cast a soft and elegant glow while reflecting from the window panes.
If the temperature’s warm, open the windows for a refreshing breeze. With a sunroom’s openness and outdoor feel, anyone can entertain as if it were outdoors without annoying bugs or mosquitos ruining the fun.
