Box room ideas

[Florianna]

I've been living in my house for 6 months. I'm in the very fortunate position of having a box room that I simply don't use. There's only myself and a partner - and our bedroom is large with plenty of room for all our clothes etc and a super king bed.

We have a guest suite extension, the 2nd bedroom is used as an office, there's a studio in the garden ... But I simply don't go in the box room, which currently has a single bed in it.

So - what would you use this extra space for? I feel that I could be putting it to much better use.

•a small gym (weights, maybe a treadmill if you can fit it in)
•yoga space (mats and yoga balls. CD player for relaxing music)
•if you have any pets it could be a space for them
•or it could be turned into a bathroom

If it were my house, I'd use it as a yoga space/gym or put a comfy armchair, bookshelves and record deck in there and turn it into a nice space to hang out with books and music.

Do you have any hobbies that you could use the room for? Or is that already covered with the garden studio?

I'm around the corner from my gym, so happy to walk there.

I'm liking the idea of a big comfy armchair and some bookshelves!

Upstairs laundry room?

Cinema room!

Library

Or buy one of those massage chairs, add candles, blackout blinds and tinkly music and have it as a relaxation pod.

Panic room? (If your area is a bit dodgy.....)
