Sunrooms: The Perfect Place to Entertain

Homes today are adding custom sunrooms to bring a fresh, new look. The area is brighter with light streaming in and the area tends to look more inviting and welcoming. If you already have a space like this in your home or you are considering this type of change, think about using this room as the central location for your next birthday, holiday, or family get together. Don't let this space go to waste.

Aesthetic Appeal

Everyone wants their home to look beautiful when having guests over. You want to put your best foot forward and bring them into an area that looks great. Sunrooms naturally give your guests a balance of indoors and outdoors. During the day, even without lamps and lights, your space is well lit. In the evening, the view of your yard could be stunning.

This room is unlike most others in your home. An enclosed patio usually has a casual feel that makes it easy for guests to walk in and instantly feel at home. Depending on the size and shape of the room, you can create all types of arrangements for both the food and entertainment. Windows give an open feel, often making sunrooms much larger than they really are. With a few pieces of furniture strategically added in the right places, you may have a tough time getting your guests to leave at the end of the event.

Access to the Yard

An enclosed patio can still be used as an access point into and out of the house. If you have kids that want to shoot some hoops or run around outside, you can still stay nice and cool inside while being about to keep an eye on things outside. If you are cooking out or having a BBQ, guests can come in and out of the house easily. Use this space as a place to keep the food. Your guests will be wandering in and out the entire time. A regular patio does provide protection from the sun but it can't give you or your guests all of the comforts of home.

If you are considering the benefits of sunrooms and wondering if this is the right decision for your space, think about what you want to use the space for. You can make design changes based on the amount of sunlight you want to allow in, option for smaller or larger windows. You can choose to enclose the entire patio area or just a portion. You can choose the type of walls, the flooring, and even the type of materials used to put everything together.

With a little extra space and natural light, your can be the proud host or hostess to your next friends and family event. Sunrooms are a great place to enjoy the sunshine, keep an eye on things outside and entertain the most important people in your life.
