Breakfast Room in Our 100 Year Old House

When we first moved in, the breakfast room in our 100 year old house wasn’t a breakfast room, in fact it was a ‘hot tub addition’ sort of turned into a family room. The only thing, well not the only thing, but a major thing was that there were hardly any windows. This room was a dark brick lined cavernous room, that no one liked!

See how we turned what was once a ‘hot tub’ room addition into a breakfast/family room that we love and use every day.
