There is nothing quite like the Idea that having a guest house makes on buyers. Not only is a guest house a selling point for your home, but many homeowners make use of the space to house long terms guests, to rent out for supplemental money, or simply to provide privacy to a college-age child. If you have a guest house but don't see yourself going for any of these traditional options, then it is time to consider converting the guest house into something that you can really use. Perhaps a pool home, a gym, or a home office would be more advantageous?
The amount of remodeling you'll need to complete in order to adapt your guest house depends largely on the existing structure you have to work with and the number and degree of changes you want to make. You may need to hire a professional or two to help you, but you can get started making plans right away.
The majority of guest houses are basically setup like a mini-house. It probably has a kitchen, one or two bedrooms, and a living room area. You need to conclude how you can best use the space for you, rather than how the guest house is presently setup.
If you need a pool house, you may want to modify the kitchen area for something else. You can use the bedrooms as storage and changing areas. Or, if you want to convert your guest house into a gym, the best approach may be to tear out all of the interior walls except for the bathroom. This will give you the opportunity to have the wide open spaces that gym equipment necessitates.
Ask yourself the following questions as you make plans for the new layout of your guest house in Islamabad: How much open area do you need? A home gym will likely need more open space than an office or pool house and will therefore involve the removal of more walls. How many separate rooms do you need? Regardless of how you want to make use of your guest house Islamabad, you may want to keep a bathroom, in addition to a separate room or two for storage (and changing, in the case of a pool house). How much remodeling is required? The amount of remodeling you'll need to do will depend on the number of structure alterations you want to make. If more remodeling is wanted than your budget or schedule will allow, you'll want to make changes to your plan accordingly
Whatever you decide to use the guest house for should determine what materials you decide on. For example, you wouldn't want to install carpet in an office or a gym because it can be damaged by office chairs or equipment. On the other hand, installing tile can still make the area look pleasing and cozy. Also consider the height of the ceilings in your guest house. If you have a dropped ceiling, you may not be able to fit exercise equipment in. Also, if it is in your budget, consider the window placement. If you want a desk with a view, your guest house may not be able to give this to you depending on the current structure.
In the end, you want to focus on mixing your personal taste with functionality as you decide what material changes to make. Think about looking in magazines, at websites and even visiting a friend's pool house, gym or home office for ideas. Have fun with it!
