My intern and I have worked diligently getting the master suit repainted and spruced up. When we built it years ago, there was never any trim. My kids came and helped me to cut trim for the room. We also spruced up the bathroom changing out the medicine cabinet, putting in shelves. It looks great. But what should I do with it?
I don’t want to move into it. I prefer to stay on the other side of the house. I’m closer to my granddaughter when she visits. I have taken pictures of the room and my beautiful gardens. French doors connect the room to the garden. When you open the doors, you can hear the waterfall. I have posted these photos on neighborhood forums. My thoughts are two-fold. Living alone is a luxury that I’m savoring. This is my first experience living this way, and I feel I need to experience it. Luckily the room has its own entrance. If I could replace my fence with one that has a code lock gate, then the room can be rented out on its own. There is a secure solid door between my home and the room. The code lock gate idea is good, especially if it is self-closing as I’m tired of having to check the gate after interns leave.
The room is empty and probably could be rented out as studio space. This would be ideal if someone worked here durring the day and left at night. The upstairs office is also available but without a bathroom there, upstairs would have to be rented with the room, say as an additional office space
Five interviews later and there is no good fit. I’m not desperate to rent it, so I’ll wait and see what God has in store for this. I’m trying to be sensitive to what he has in store for my life.
