Master Suite Addition Projects

The Williams: Master suite addition in Santee

The Williams are a large, blended family and they often have friends and family over for dinner. Their mother was getting up in years and was having trouble maintaining her own residence. Having her move in was hands down the best option. The price of adding on a master suite cost less than one year of assisted living. Besides, Grandma wasn’t ready for the old folks home yet.

Ritz Design Build constructed a master bedroom suite as an addition to the front of the home. Besides a lovely bedroom, she also enjoys a luxurious bathroom as well as a wet bar area. This way she can enjoy her morning cup of coffee or a late night snack without having to face the rest of her family! Ritz Design Build designed the suite anticipating decreased mobility in the future. Doors were built a little wider to accommodate walkers and a curbless shower makes it possible to bathe without have to take a large step into a tub.

Adding an extra master bedroom suite to existing homes is growing in popularity. And with the passage of time it might serve a different purpose in your household. When grown children graduate from college, the opportunity to live at home while they get on their feet financially helps them save money to move out. Later on, senior parents may appreciate the convenience of living close to their children.

A master bedroom suite: a sanctuary
Unless you frequent a spa or own a home on a deserted tropical island, the master bedroom suite is the best retreat for most homeowners. It’s a vacation from the pressures of everyday life. Before you begin building a master bedroom suite, you should consider your options. A master bedroom suite on the second floor may offer a lot of privacy and you may have the space to sprawl across several rooms with walk-in closets, a lounge area, wet bar and of course, luxurious bathroom. It might be tucked at the end of the hallway or built over the garage. A master bedroom suite located on the first floor maybe easier to access as your mobility decreases, but then you might have to give up some space in your backyard.

We can get ingenious and create more space
Ritz Design Build can get creative and help you figure out how to carve out a master suite. Perhaps you can steal some space from a bedroom left vacant by a child who moved away for college or annex a tiny bathroom off the hallway. A bump out might be an inexpensive way to increase the size of a master bedroom or make room for a sunny niche where you can read your book. That way you don’t have to pay for the additional expense of foundation work or extending the roofline.
