Having a bonus room in your new home in Frisco, TX gives you added flexibility in your living space. If you’re not quite sure how to utilize your bonus room, here are a few ideas to get you started.

Play Room – If you have children, establishing an area just for them is a great way to keep the mess out of the rest of the house. Set up cubbies, baskets and shelves to hold toys, while providing enough space to play with them. Include comfy furniture like bean bag chairs, and play rugs in bright colors.

Home Theater – Turning your bonus room into a home theater is a popular trend in home design. Install a quality television with surround sound for best results. Next, you can decide how to furnish the room. Do you want people seated on sofas and chairs, or movie theater seats? If you’re into gaming, the room can do double duty. Just make sure you have the extra gadgetry readily installed with extra audio and video ports for input and output.

Family Room – Combine the best aspects of the play room and home theater in your new home in Frisco, TX to create a place the whole family can gather and relax in. Include games, movies and a snack area, and keep the space cozy and inviting.

Home Gym – Save money on a gym membership and use your bonus room as your own private workout area. Designate a space for workout equipment, such as a stationary bike or free weights. Consider installing customized flooring, such as an interlocking gym mat to provide stability, sound deadening and slip resistance. Exercising will become less of a chore if you don’t have to leave the house!

Home Office – When you work from home, a bonus room can be the perfect choice for a home office. Keep the space efficient and eye appealing with storage options and organizational systems.

Man Cave – Give the man of the house his own space by turning the bonus room into a “man cave,” complete with comfy couch, big screen TV, pool table and/or a bar.
