Your attic at home is often thought of as the most wonderful space for storing unused items or for keeping things, which are not exactly pleasing to the eyes. However, the attic can also be transformed to become of something more useful than being just for storage.
As previously reported here on Realty Today, the attic can be one of the most unused and unappreciated spaces at home. Little do homeowners realize that the attic can offer and serve multitudes of uses and purpose.
Those who work from home may find themselves liking the idea of setting up their own office at the comforts of their own home. It is a good way of keeping yourself focused on the tasks at hand without getting yourself stressed over traffic situations that people often face when working in offices.
Aside from transforming the attic into a personal office, Realtor.com also provided several tips on how you can make complete use of your attic at home. According to the publication, the attic is a great place to set up your dream walk-in closet.
"All you have to do is install clothing rods, shelving, cabinets and drawers," said Kathryn Scott of Kathryn Scott Design Studio.
This may be a perfect opportunity for you to realize your dream back when you were still a kid and fancied having a huge space dedicated only for your clothes and shoes.
Moms can also make use of the space in their attics to provide their kids with their very own playroom. This will also help eliminate everyday clutter in the living room and other spaces brought about by having kids play around with their toys all day long.
Two things that you need to keep in mind, however, if you want to transform the attic into a much more functional space are: insulation and accessibility.
