Need Space Away from Your Family Sometimes? Build a Sunroom

By on

Kids are great, aren’t they? So full of energy and creativity, their rambunctious play fills the house with joyful noisy laughter. And of course, we all treasure our sweethearts. Having someone to share life’s triumphs with, and being able to support them through the twists and turns this world has for us – that’s what love’s all about. And it may be that you’re blessed to have your parents or in-laws sharing your home: what a gift to have so much wisdom under one roof.

Yet every now and then, wouldn’t it be lovely to get away from everyone? Just to have a little bit of peace and quiet in a pretty setting, where no one needs anything from you and all of the things on your to-do list can just wait? A space to enjoy a cup of coffee, or meditate, or just do nothing for a little while?

That’s where the sun room comes in. Your local deck builder can install a sunroom on your deck, or they can convert your existing three season deck into a sunroom you can enjoy all year long. Sunrooms are great: they add extra space to your home affordably, feature lots of natural light, and are the perfect setting for Mom or Dad to have a little time to themselves.

Everyone in the family can enjoy the sunroom. For the kids, it’s a great place to unwind. If your kids been having a hard time finding a quiet place where it’s possible to concentrate and get homework done, the sunroom might be exactly what’s required. They make great studies, casual game rooms, or even a nice place to entertain your favorite people.

To learn more about adding a sunroom to your Massachusetts home, talk to your local deck builder. They’ve got all the information you need to make a great decision.

What Kind of Fun Can You Have in a Sunroom

By on

Imagine a space devoted to making your family’s life better. That’s what a sunroom is. Everything about a sunroom is a positive when viewed in terms of happiness: you get extra room, there’s lots of natural light, and the perfect combination for outdoor living of nature’s beauty and a private space.

Sunrooms are ideal for hanging out. Toss some comfortable furniture, a few plants, some relaxing music, and you’ve got a great setting for life’s precious moments – the time you spend with your kids, talking about the most ordinary things, is absolutely priceless in retrospect. Spend time with your special someone in the sunroom, or enjoy your own company. It’s nice to curl up with a book and ignore the world for a while. A sunroom gives the kids a place to play that’s safe and sunny; in a more formal room, the sunroom provides a more casual, relaxed space.

You can play cards in a sunroom. You can play music in a sunroom – if you haven’t exactly mastered your guitar just yet, don’t sweat it; the sunroom is a great place to practice. If you like to paint or draw or create any kind of art, a sunroom is a great place to work. With strategic placement of screens, you can play video games in a sunroom. Some families choose to make the sunroom a device-free zone; others do the total opposite. Play is important. It is good for a family to have a place to play.

In Massachusetts, sunrooms are special because they make it possible to enjoy the outdoors without having to actually go outdoors. There are days when it is definitely too stormy to play outside – but the kids can still have fun in the sunroom watching the rain pouring from the sky or the snowflakes swirling to the ground. Truth be told, sometimes the big kids enjoy that too. At night, you can see the moon and stars from the sunroom, which is good to know if you’re interested in astronomy or romance.
