Well if it was me I'd only have one nut to hit...the other would have been traded for that shop and house. The house could always be renovated...and then the wife could have had it built exactly "her" way.
I've thought about that but it won't work..
The only thing that makes sense is to turf the master bedroom and the ensuite bath to make a living room and dining room. The plumbing for the ensuite would need be decommissioned.
Then combine the two bedrooms on the other side of the house into the master bedroom with no ensuite.. And use the shared bath across the hall.
The family room isn't much different in layout to what we have now and I find this awkward for furniture placement.
The kitchen is cool though.
Everything else would be in the basement. More bedrooms, an office, furnace room, rec room, a couple of bathrooms.
It could work I guess but it still wouldn't be quite right in my mind and it would add cost to an already expensive property.
It has two acres of grape vines too. That generates some income but nothing crazy..
