Bonus Room Construction & Remodeling
Building new bonus rooms in Greenville, & Upstate SC
A bonus room provides an extra, adaptable space within a home, lending itself to various uses tailored to you and your families individual desires and needs. While many rooms in a residence, such as the bedroom, bathroom, or kitchen, come with a predefined purpose, a bonus room stands out for its versatility. It's a dynamic space that can evolve alongside a family's changing requirements.
These rooms can appear in diverse areas within a home: above the garage, within the attic, tucked into a dormer, nestled in the basement, or even as an independent area on the primary living level. Homeowners might transform bonus rooms into personal offices, media centers, children's play areas, spare bedrooms, fitness zones, or dedicated spaces for hobbies and crafts.
What makes a bonus room particularly attractive is its inherent flexibility and the opportunity for homeowners to craft a space that mirrors their passions, elevates their living experience, and boosts the worth of their home.

Spaces We Can Convert To Bonus Rooms
Homeowners in Greenville County are increasingly seeking ways to make the most of their living spaces by converting unused areas of their home into functional, versatile bonus rooms.
These bonus rooms can serve various purposes, such as a home office, an entertainment area, a guest room, or hobby spaces, adding value and comfort to your home. Here are a few of the different spaces that our team can transform into a bonus room.
Attics: Attics are often overlooked, underutilized spaces that can be transformed into stunning bonus rooms. With their unique architectural features, such as sloping ceilings and exposed beams, attics provide a cozy and intimate atmosphere that can be perfect for creating a home office, library, or reading nook. Before converting an attic, it's essential to consider factors like insulation, ventilation, and structural support to ensure the space is comfortable and safe for use.
Unused Space Above Garages: The area above your garage, also known as a "garage loft," can be an ideal space for creating a bonus room. Converting this space can provide you with a separate, dedicated area for a variety of uses, such as a home gym, a guest suite, or an entertainment room. When transforming a garage loft, consider adding proper insulation, soundproofing, and access options, such as a separate staircase or an exterior entrance, to maximize functionality and privacy.
Basements: A basement can be a treasure trove of potential when it comes to creating a bonus room. Depending on the size and layout, you can transform your basement into a home theater, a game room, or even a fully-functioning apartment for extended family or guests. Make sure to address any moisture issues, install proper lighting, and consider adding insulation and soundproofing to make the space comfortable and inviting.
Underused Corners and Alcoves: Every home has those underused corners and alcoves that often go unnoticed. With some creativity, these spaces can be repurposed into functional and attractive bonus rooms. For example, a large alcove could be transformed into a cozy reading nook or a mini home office. Utilize built-in shelving, seating, and efficient lighting to maximize the space and create a comfortable environment.
Enclosed Porches or Sunrooms: Enclosed porches or sunrooms can also be converted into bonus rooms, providing a bright and airy space for relaxation or hobbies. These rooms are particularly well-suited for creating a home office, art studio, or meditation space, as they typically offer abundant natural light and views of the outdoors. To ensure year-round comfort, consider adding insulation, heating, and cooling options to the space.
Splitting Larger Rooms: If your home has an exceptionally large room, you might consider splitting it into two separate spaces to create a bonus room. This can be an effective way to make better use of your square footage and introduce a new, functional area to your home. The conversion can be done by installing a partition wall and even incorporating sliding or folding doors for flexibility.
By tapping into the potential of unused spaces in your home, you can create versatile, functional, and personalized bonus rooms that cater to your unique needs and interests. Whether it's an attic, a garage loft, or an underused corner, there's a wealth of opportunity waiting to be discovered in these often-overlooked areas. So, let your creativity run wild and transform these hidden gems into beautiful, functional spaces that enhance your home and lifestyle.
What Our Home Remodeling Clients Say...
Nunley Custom Homes Would Be An Excellent Choice.
Joe Nunley has a wealth of construction and design experience and we have personally seen many of his remodels and custom builds over the years, including with our own home. He is 100% committed to doing a quality job and refuses to take any shortcuts. If you are looking for someone to do a quick and dirty “lipstick on a pig” job for a quick property sale or house flip, Joe may NOT be your guy. But if you are looking for a quality upgrade to your own home—something you can be proud to show off to your friends and neighbors—Nunley Custom Homes would be an excellent choice. Joe communicates well with his clients and will offer many interesting design ideas and material recommendations. And he will not consider a job complete until it meets, not only the proper building codes, but also his personal standard of excellence!!
We Hit The Jackpot When We Found Joe Nunley And His Crew!
We hit the jackpot when we found Joe Nunley and his crew! Our goal: to renovate a 1956 brick ranch family house while maintaining the character of the original home. The finished product exceeded our imagination and expectations! On the front end, Joe listened carefully to our vision. Throughout the project, he communicated clearly and timely, followed the provided timeline, maintained a safe, clean, and orderly work environment, and offered design options to meet our desires and budget. Joe and his team were dedicated to providing excellent work with attention to detail and precision. Phase 1 (entire home renovation) went so well, we will soon begin Phase 2 (covered outdoor living space and kitchen) and we are thrilled to be able to work with Joe and his team again.
