This Summerville home already had a covered screened area and an open concrete patio along the back of the house. Express Sunrooms of Charleston transformed that portion of the backyard with a custom sunroom addition, giving the homeowners an enclosed space that feels like it belongs with the original home.

The finished sunroom extends across the existing patio area with large windows on multiple sides, bringing natural light into the room while maintaining views of the backyard. On the exterior, white trim and light blue siding coordinate with the home’s existing finishes, helping the addition blend into the house rather than look like a separate structure added later.

 

 

A Sunroom Designed Around the Existing Home

One of the biggest changes in this project can be seen in the footprint itself. Before construction, much of this area was an uncovered patio with outdoor furniture. The completed project turns that same backyard space into an enclosed room while still leaving room for an outdoor patio beside it.

The new sunroom also works around the home’s existing roofline and rear elevation. A gabled roof gives the addition its own definition, while the exterior detailing ties back into the architecture and colors of the house. Large windows wrap around the room to keep the space connected to the outdoors without leaving it exposed to Summerville’s heat, rain, insects, and changing weather.

More Ways to Use the Backyard

A sunroom can change more than the appearance of the back of a home. By enclosing part of this previously open patio, these Summerville homeowners now have a space that can serve as an additional sitting area, entertaining space, or everyday extension of the home while still overlooking the backyard.

For homeowners who already have a patio or underused area behind their home, a custom sunroom can build on that existing space rather than requiring an entirely different backyard layout.
