USING THE CLARK GRISWOLD METHOD TO RELAX DURING THE HOLIDAYS!

SING THE CLARK GRISWOLD METHOD TO RELAX DURING THE HOLIDAYS

Do you need a place to escape to this holiday season? We all have dreams for the perfect family Christmas. Unfortunately, for most of us, those dreams quickly turn into the kind of holiday experienced by Clark Griswold in the famed movie Christmas Vacation. His antics may seem funny on the big screen, but when you are forced to live with unexpected guests crowding your personal space and destroying your dreams of an idyllic Christmas, all may seem lost.

Don’t find yourself stuck in a freezing cold attic like Clark — or even hiding up there on purpose to get away from it all. Turn that old dingy space into a place everyone can enjoy.

Why You Need an Attic Remodel This Holiday

No matter how big the house, cramming another half dozen (or more) people into your family space can put everyone’s nerves on edge. Instead of displacing your children or “setting up camp” in the living room (whether they admit it or not, no one enjoys those family room campouts), create a cozy space that your guests can call their own.

Turning your attic into place for your guests to retreat to will keep clutter at bay in other rooms, plus it will give everyone a place to escape to during those long visits.

Maybe you have enough guest rooms on the main level of the house — great! Turn that attic into a secret hideaway just for you! Whether it’s an office, entertainment area, or master suite doesn’t matter. What matters is that YOU have a place to escape to when the in-laws become a little too much to bear.

What Can You Do With That Attic Space?

Has your attic become a dumping ground for the family’s lots treasures? It’s time to clean house and reclaim that space. So what can you do with an empty attic? Here are some suggestions:

  • Create a New Master Suite – if you crave more space of your own, the attic offers a large open canvas to explore.
  • An In-Attic Spa – always dreamed of having your own day spa? Create one.
  • Children’s Playroom – the attic offers a large space away from the general hubbub of the home where kids can go to make a mess — and make some noise!
  • Media Center – does your family love gathering together to watch Christmas movies? Add a media room to your attic to make movie-going more pleasurable.
  • Guest Suite – give guests a place to call their own with a bedroom, sitting area, and bath.
  • Cozy Apartment – sometimes too much togetherness makes tempers flare. If you often entertain guests for longer periods of time, adding a small apartment (complete with their own living area, bedroom, bath and kitchenette) will give everyone the individual space they crave.

Does an Attic Remodel Make Sense?

Creating the modern and sophisticated living space you dream of in your attic isn’t always cheap. According to the 2015 Remodeling Impact report published by the National Association of Realtors, the average attic remodel costs about $65,000. The good news is that homeowners report a 61% return on that investment when they sell their homes.
