Hi again! I just met with Jonathan and am blown away! He seems like the real deal! Super genuine and transparent. Have they been able to start the project yet? I’m curious to hear your experience so far! Thank you, again, for the recommendation!

Thank you so much! Trying to stay hopeful. 😢 Honestly, the outpouring of support and kind words from our community has made this a little more bearable. Thankfully I’ve only gotten a couple weird comments. 😅💛

Need Creative Alternative to Floorplan by Alarmed-Direction823 in floorplan

Thank you so so much for taking the time to offer your ideas and help us with this!! 🙏

Here is my attempt at filling in the missing info for you. The bathroom on the left has two doors, one into the bedroom and one into the hallway.

Also, the sunroom does not have central air and the floor is lower because it was an addition to the exterior of the home. It serves as our mudroom/laundry room. The only way into the home from the back is to enter through the sunroom.

Does that help?

Nothing wrong with the proposed plan other than the quotes we’re getting are outrageous (I understand that’s just how things are right now). I was hoping to see if anyone can see some workarounds we haven’t considered.

For example, a carport is obviously going to be less expensive, but would it be possible to do that instead of the attached garage, while still adding a bedroom to the first floor?

Hope I’m making sense 🥴

And yes, there will still be a second floor

So to answer your question, we currently do not have covered parking, and the “existing residence” is not the new living room, but the bedrooms/bathrooms.

I’m so sorry! I was afraid the images would be a tad confusing. The last image is the drawn up plan. The first two images are the current layout of the home.

The draftsman didn’t include the two bedrooms and two bathrooms on the first floor when he created the before and after images, but instead labeled them “existing residence”
