Do you need a place for your children to play and store their toys? Choosing your naturally bright sunroom is a perfect place for children of all ages to enjoy and an easy place to store their toys and creations. A few area rugs, a small table, and storage for toys are all that you really need. The area can be easily transformed into an area to have a child’s next birthday party. Parents enjoy using their sunroom as a playroom because it’s easy to keep an eye on their children, and toys can be stored without having them all over their traditional living space. The indoor sunroom space will keep away pesky mosquitos, allergies, pollen, harmful UV rays and changes in weather. The kids enjoy it and so do the parents. Making a playroom is a win-win for the entire family!

5. Guest Room to Accommodate Overnight Guests

A traditional guest room for the occasional overnight guest is a luxury that not everyone can easily afford. Utilizing a sunroom can be the perfect option for this need. Homeowners have the option to use their sunroom as an overnight guest room as well as their home office or entertaining room. Your sunroom can easily be transformed into the perfect space for your overnight guest by simply adding a few things. If you don’t have window treatments for your sunroom you can choose wall-mounted curtains, they are easy to use and are very budget friendly. A portable mattress or pull out couch can easily transform your sunroom space. If you’re planning on having frequent guests, a wall or murphy bed can be installed. These type beds are made specifically to stay out of sight when not in use and many designs come with elegant storage or desk options. Outfitting your sunroom as an overnight room is not difficult and is sure to be welcoming and comfortable for any overnight guest who stays in your home.

6. Fitness Room

The Florida heat can sometimes be a burden on many that love to exercise outdoors. A fitness room or gym in your sunroom is an ideal place that will allow you to enjoy the outdoors without the Florida heat, rain, or insects to spoil your workout. A sunroom can also be transformed into your very own yoga studio, a room to enjoy all of your favorite yoga poses and positions, all from the comfort and privacy of your own home. Being health conscious all year round is easy to do with a sunroom from Lifestyle Remodeling.

7. Game Room

If your home has children, or if you’re a child at heart, a sunroom provides the perfect space to play all year-round. Sunrooms offer a wide-open area with large windows that create a great atmosphere for parties, family game night or having friends over for poker night. The open floor plan of a sunroom allows for a pool table, ping pong table, and poker table to fit comfortably all while allowing ample space for all gamers. If you decide to connect your sunroom to your patio or deck you could create a BBQ and game night all in one, hosting both an outdoor and indoor party all at once! No matter what design you choose, a game room is a great option for any sunroom!

8. Theater Room to Watch Your Favorite Movies

You can easily turn your sunroom into a theater room where you can enjoy watching your favorite movies and sporting events with family and friends. Sunrooms although beautifully open and sunny can still be turned into a theater room quite easily. Motorized curtains or theater blinds are a good option when choosing window treatments for your sunroom/theater room. These curtains and blinds will allow the sun to be blocked out so glare and reflections will not hinder the picture on your TV or projection screen. To maximize the acoustics and improve sound quality in your sunroom by just choosing carpet or area rugs for the flooring is a great option. Adding these things to your sunroom will be sure to maximize sound and visual quality in your home theater for daytime or evening use.

9. Perfect Place For Growing Plants

A sunroom is a perfect solution for people who may have limited mobility, but love to garden. Plants can be kept at a level that is easy to access making gardening and growing plants easy and fun for everyone. If outdoor allergies are a problem, you can handpick flowers and avoid any sensitivities that you may have to outdoor allergens.

10. A Room For Your Pets

Sunrooms are a great way to give your pets the sunshine they need while keeping them safe while you are away at work. Dogs and cats can enjoy the outdoor views without the heat and humidity of being kept in a screen room.
