Sunrooms Ideas: Seamless Exterior Additions

Pretty Sunroom Addition

This sunroom, paired with outdoor seating, makes an indoor-outdoor entertaining center.

Sunrooms are versatile and can be formal or informal, depending on your needs. The style of this sunroom addition follows the lines of the existing house, and the windows take advantage of the lush lawn and garden.

This angled room gives a rear facade more design interest than a typical boxy bump-out. Wraparound windows let in light year-round, and screens let in breezes on warm, sunny days. A distinctive architectural feature, a cupola with windows, tops the addition and showers the interior with light. Traditional-style windows in the gazebo-like addition link the old and new spaces.

Stretching nearly 40 feet along the side of the house, an 11-foot-deep, prefabricated sunroom serves as both a greenhouse and a living area. Three sets of French doors open to the home's living room, providing daylight and plenty of expansive views.

Adding this sunroom to a suburban house created a generous dining area for a growing family. The addition sits at grade level on a concrete slab that extends to form walkways and a surrounding patio.

A prefabricated sunroom is a simple addition project. This glass-roof version was tucked under an eave and forms a small courtyard. Prefabricated sunrooms of any size must rest on a foundation that complies with local building codes.

This sunroom addition is nestled under a giant oak. Shade from the tree during the summer and early fall cools the space naturally. After the leaves fall, the added sunlight helps warm the interior.

This sunroom addition sits at the front of a cottage-style house to maximize sunlight. The sunroom expands the adjoining great-room and floods it with natural light. The original center-door entry was replaced with twin sets of French doors flanking the new sunspace.

Inspired by a French chateau dining room, this enchanting sunroom is a stylish complement to the stately brick Georgian home. A copper-clad roof and Doric columns reinforce the classical theme. The room's curve provides an enticing transition to the outdoors.
