We are considering some projects around the home, the most involved of which would be an addition off the side of our house, something with lots of light and glass. We garden, start plants inside early, so would consider a legit greenhouse or similar. Hartley Botanic kind of product. Perhaps that design would be impractical, so we could just go with typical construction with lots of windows around the edge.
Have any of you done something like this that you can comment on features you enjoy or dislike?
Specific thoughts or concerns I have:
1. We live in an ICF house, might need special equipment to open up a window into a doorway.
2. It might be daunting to find a contractor to trust.
3. We want heat/HVAC- would likely convert a single zone mini split into a three zone system. Hanging a mini split in a real greenhouse seems tough.
4. Our electric meter is on the side of the house where we might put this. The power divides and goes to a couple solar systems and outbuildings. If we went larger on the sunroom size, at a minimum the electric service into the house would need to be relocated to the outside of the new space.
5. We might need some driveway rework as this is where we currently park.
Any pointers?
Thank you.
