Bigger Closet Space (and Closet Doors!)
Right now, Matt and I share a closet. I have the bigger half since I have more stuff, but plenty of his clothing has migrated into my side simply because there's not enough room in the small half. (Also, he stores a lot of his insulin pump supplies on the shelves in the small half because he can reach the tall shelves and I can't.)
Our current closet doesn't have a door. Our master "suite" is open, laid out like this:
So while our clothes are hidden from wandering eyes, they're not exactly locked up. And Elliott has a bad habit of chewing up sweaters and cardigans, so basically we have to lock her out of here all the time.
Built-in Bookshelves
We have one bookshelf in our house. We really don't have wall space for any more bookshelves, but I seriously need more than one. Especially because both Matt and I have kept all of our field-relevant college textbooks and notebooks, and I'm basically a book hoarder. In addition to our one (clearly overloaded) bookshelf, I've got books in and on my desk hutch, and both Matt and I have fairly tall stacks on our nightstands.
I would love to have a wall of built-in bookshelves, or even just a wall big and blank enough to put a lot of bookcases against. Like a tiny library. Maybe in my future office.
A Dedicated Office Space
I work from home. Right now, my office also functions as a guest room and Man Cave whenever baseball or football are on TV. Plus Matt's computer is on our only desk as well, so we have to share. I would love to have a space — no matter how small — that is only mine. It doesn't even matter if it's a room; even a nook would be fine!
(Also, I'm thinking I might want to get rid of the hutch. I can't make up my mind.)
If you could change your current place, what would you want to add? What features would you have in your dream house?
