When we purchased here in TV we settled on a home because of its location, it was not the home we wanted, but we knew we could work with it. We found a contractor, told him what we wanted to do and he drew up the plans. We ended up taking apart the kitchen and living areas and rearranging them to our preference. We took out the lanai, built up the floor, added on a 15 x 15 ft. room. The windows start about 3ft up from the floor and go to the ceiling, three sides are all windows. It is air conditioned and heated .... love this room, we basically live in it and have one of those "parlors" that never gets used now - I jokingly refer to it as the "library" because I do read in there!
When we were doing the work on the house the contractor wanted us to blow out the back of the home to add 30ft across the back and I really wish I had done that now. So whatever you do, make your addition bigger than you think you need.
