Chicago condo - marketing office as bedroom, advice?!
Hi BP!
We are in the process of renovating a 1,028 square foot condo in the South Loop of Chicago!
There is one decent size master bedroom and one tiny 10 x 10 room that looks more like an office. It has a closet and two windows leading outside but also french doors (with glass panels) and a window that looks into the kitchen.
Would this window between "bedroom" and kitchen affect the sale price? Are we better off closing it into a wall?
I wanted to get insight on whether the window subtracts because it creates less privacy in the bedroom or ADDS because it is a more open office. I personally like that it allows for a view outside from the kitchen, but I can see how it feels less like a 2 bedroom and could reduce the sale price.
Thanks in advance for advice!
