Thoughts on a garage conversion, should we go back to garage
We are looking at an older home (probably late 60s), that is basically a gut job, so we are wide open on what we can do. The home is 1600 sf, so we've got some room, but it's only 2/1 and no feasible way to make it a 3 br. There is a converted one car garage off of the kitchen that we could make another bedroom, but it doesn't seem to be a convenient place for a bedroom, honestly.
This will be a buy and hold, and we are thinking about just leaving it as a 2/1. Should we just leave that room and make it more living area or dining room, or should we just make it a garage again? Where is the most bang for our buck. We have a little room in our budget if we get the property for what I'm estimating, don't want to waste it doing something not necessary.
