Swapping out Master Bedroom and Den

10 years ago

I have a large master bedroom and a smaller bedroom I've been using as a den. In the "den", I have a chair, foot stool, loveseat, two end tables, a TV cabinet and two other cabinets with bookcase tops flanking the TV cabinet, plus a low bookcase. I'm thinking of swapping out rooms, and using the smaller room as my bedroom. I'd have room for my queen size bed, a bedside chest, dresser, chest of drawers and cedar chest in my "den". Since my master bedroom is a lot larger, I'd be able to use the den furniture in that room, plus keep a couple bedroom pieces, and add a desk.

Currently, I have to use my dining room table for my laptop, and I have boxes and files along side the dining room table. I also have my router/modem in the living room. My printer is in the den, and it doesn't always connect when I want to print something. I think that might be because it's too far away from the router/modem and my laptop.

I'm thinking of removing my old carpeting in my master bedroom (to be converted to a den) and adding hardwood flooring. I currently have carpeting in my living room, dining room and small room that I'm using as a den.

Do you think this sounds like a good idea to you? I'd put a neutral oak hardwood flooring in the larger room (my bedroom now). The hallway that runs between all the rooms is tile, so there wouldn't be wood flooring next to wood flooring. If I'd ever move and sell my place, I would think someone might want to install hardwood flooring in the other two rooms, and it it would be easy to find a flooring that would look good with what I'd put in my "master bedroom"/"den".

What are your thoughts about this?
