[quote=Anonymous]We did it and it flows well, but like PP said it wasn't cheap. We chose to do it because we live in a location we adore on a 1 acre lot and wanted to add some space to our home. We looked at moving, but all the new stuff around us are those cookie cutter craftsman homes shoehorned on to small lots. In order to make it flow we upgraded the doors/windows in the rooms adjacent to the new room so they would all match, added matching ceiling fans in the new and old spaces, repainted everything and redid all the hardieplank so the exterior on the old and new spaces is identical. We just added living/dining space and didn't add any expensive complex spaces with plumbing (kitchens, bathrooms, etc.). It was still up in the six figures, but we feel it was worth it to make our house what we wanted and retain our location and lot rather than move into something newer that we didn't want. [/quote]
