Hubby and I fell in love with TV this past September, when we took our LSV. We want to move to TV, sometime in early-mid 2013. We want to build a Cedar and enclose the Dining Room area and make it into an Office (with sliding, double, pocket French Doors on the living room side to maximize natural light). Albeit small-ish in size (12'-6" x 8'), has anyone else done this or contemplated doing this? Because we will have a lot of visiting family/friends, we really want two guest bedrooms. Any/all thoughts, suggestions, comments would be appreciated.......

I almost did, had plans for a home theater area in that space, you can move the 2 bedroom doors around where U come in off the foyer then that area would be 3' larger

Thanks, Jimbo. Question....if you move Bed 3's door from the hallway to the foyer, how would I access Bed 2 and the guest bath??? I am blonde, so perhaps I'm missing something obvioius. I was thinking of moving the sliding pocket door, forward, toward the Foyer, so it would make Bed 2, 3, and guest bath, more private. I am interested, however, in learning more about your design....intriguing, especially if I can gain 3' in the Office. DiAne

Planning to be down in January....start building ~March/April. We will have to find short-term rental, for a few months....Hubby and I are still working full-time, but thankfully can telecommute. I am going to try and attach a drawing of what I am thinking of....

Ok try that hallway where the closet is in bd #3, bump out #3 or bump and add a bay or witches hat.

Do u follow my thinking.....

Aha....now I understand. Yes, I follow.....very good idea. Thank you. Have you completed your build or are you still in process? So many decisions to make. We hope to be down, next month, to purchase lot. How has your process gone, so far? We are ubber-planners.....

We actually canceled our design date about 10 days ago and found a new home just finished that we fell in love with.

I'll be happy to give you my plans for your house rather than waste them.
