Attic renovations can create extra living space W. FRANK REAL ESTATE LTD. SAT., SEPT. 18th - 12:30 to 3:30 DIRECTIONS: Scugog Island east on 11th Concession to Sunrise Beach, follow signs. Your hostess, Bonnie Steele, 985-7386 From Page 1 that help at attic accom- modate a wide assortment of articles. Wasted space along the roofline and unus- ed space at the top of the stairs offer great possibilities for cabinets, shelving and drawers. Other attic ideas include stepped shelving under eaves, shelves or cabinets around doors and windows, and overhead platforms that work especially well for light weight, seasonal items such as blankets and luggage. If the space under the roof behind an existing kneewall is deep and usable, consider incorporating it into a storage unit, as well. For a tidy, finished look, paint storage units and your entire attic with durable semi-gloss paint. If you are fortunate enough to possess an abun- dance of attic space, you may be able, zoning permit- ting, to tuck 'a complete apartment under your roof. Whether you create an income-producing unit or a comfortable living quarter for a family member, you'll find it takes extra planning to subdivide space for max- imum efficiency. You can overcome attic limitations by arranging furniture for seating, sleeping and storage in low-headroom zones along the walls. Often, an attic lends itself as a retreat for adults, teenagers and children who want a special place of their own. An attic can be refur- bished into a family room, children's playroom, a teenager's bedroom, even a music room. If you are thinking about turning unused space into a music room and you don't want to raise the noise level, include soundproofing in your plans. If you are unsure about how to use your attic space and want to make sure you are following all building codes, consult an architect or contractor for advice.
