I have converted my attic into a small, private study.
I had to do a serious amount of cleaning up there, as my good friend and I didn’t absolutely use the attic space for anything more than storage of things my good friend and I barely ever needed anyway.
I will not go into detail about some of the nasty things I found up there after so much time, but it will say that after cleaning it up plus repurposing it, it has turned into one of my favorite parts of the house. It’s a cozy little nook where I can study a favorite book or do some work on my laptop in peace plus quiet! Or, at least it is when the weather is mild. I decided to do this cleaning in the Springtime, but then the summer time came, plus I found it absolutely strenuous to cope up there without any form of weather conditions control. At first, I brought a fan up there. I started with a table fan, plus then I switched to a box fan because the table fan wasn’t powerful enough. Then I realized I could barely know over the loud drone of the fan, not to mention the fact that the air it was blowing in my face was hot anyway. I decided there must be some way for me to get real weather conditions control in the attic. I thought about somehow extending our existing central a/c system to accommodate the attic, but that seemed like it would cost a whole bunch of cash. I looked into a portable air conditioning unit instead, plus I found an Incredibly powerful one that did not need near as much power as I thought it would! Now I can actually love my new favorite room in the house.
