I made it a point to dine at one of the restaurants, and there was only one other customer seated.

Removed a wall to open the kitchen to the dining room and renovated the kitchen.

A typical "5 by 5" will have a living room, dining room, kitchen, two bedrooms and a full bath in each unit, and there is almost always a shared basement that houses mechanicals and can be used for storage.

I put it next to the pantry I created where the entrance to the stairs used to be, but not sure if that is the best spot. 2) Seating area for a dining table.

I turned a laundry room into a powder room, turned the formal dining into a laundry room, remodeled the kitchen and completely reconfigured the the master bathroom and closet. 

Adding a half bath or second full bath is great, unless it is right off the dining room and no one will ever use it.As for bedrooms, at least in my market and the houses I have toured, adding bedrooms almost never makes sense without an addition. 

He said, "Some of the texturing on the living/dining room ceiling has fallen.

Others      are areas where their self made wooden benches where sitting in the dining room and was pulled back and forth for a year and left       heavy scratches and scrapes.2.

Checks all your boxes; scenic neighborhoods right next to or near the water, the expansive centrally-located shopping/dining complex Coco Walk is nearing the end of it's massive reconstruction, huge new luxury condos just built right across from the marina.

It is walking distance to hospitals, retail, dining, offices and public transportation making it a desirable location for residents or visitors.
