From Veranda to Sunroom: Real Stories of Stunning Transformations

When you think about upgrading your veranda to a sunroom, the possibilities might seem endless. What will it look like? How will it feel to use the space every day?

Sometimes, the best way to envision the potential is by seeing real examples of how others have transformed their outdoor spaces.

Here are some inspiring stories of homeowners who turned their verandas into stunning sunrooms and the incredible benefits they now enjoy.


Sarah and Michael: A Family’s Favorite Room

Challenge: Sarah and Michael had a spacious veranda, but it was rarely used. Summer days made it too hot, while winter turned it into an unwelcoming, drafty space. As a growing family, they needed a versatile area where everyone could spend quality time together.

Solution: With a simple upgrade, their veranda was transformed into a fully enclosed sunroom featuring insulated panels, super tough plexiglass windows, and large sliding doors for ventilation. They also incorporated a built-in bench with storage to keep toys and games out of sight, creating a clean and organized space.

Outcome: Their sunroom quickly became the heart of their home. “It’s where we gather for family dinners, play board games, and even have movie nights,” Sarah says. “It’s bright, comfortable, and we use it every single day.”


James and Priya: A Cozy Retreat for Two

Challenge: James and Priya loved their backyard views, but their veranda wasn’t cutting it. It was functional but lacked the charm and comfort they wanted for a peaceful retreat. They dreamed of a space where they could unwind after work and enjoy Melbourne’s beautiful sunsets.

Solution: Their new sunroom featured floor-to-ceiling super tough plexiglass windows, cozy furnishings, and warm lighting to create a calming ambiance. They also added bi-fold doors that could be opened up entirely on breezy days, letting the sounds of nature flow through the space.

Outcome: Now, James and Priya spend their evenings sipping tea in their sunroom, surrounded by natural light and stunning garden views. “It’s our sanctuary,” Priya shares. “We love how it feels connected to the outdoors but keeps us comfortable year-round.”


Rachel and Peter: A Functional Space with Style

Challenge: Rachel and Peter’s veranda was great for entertaining guests in mild weather, but it didn’t provide the comfort or versatility they needed for larger gatherings or Melbourne’s unpredictable climate. They wanted a space that could handle everything from dinner parties to casual coffee catch-ups.

Solution: Their sunroom design combined modern style with functionality. They chose a sleek look with tiled floors, super tough plexiglass windows, and insulated roofing. The addition of a small bar and built-in shelving made it perfect for hosting, while a large dining table provided ample seating for guests.

Outcome: “It’s transformed the way we entertain,” Peter says. “Our guests are always impressed, and we love how the space feels like a natural extension of our home. Rain or shine, it’s where the party happens.”


Why These Transformations Matter

These homeowners had one thing in common—they saw the potential in their existing veranda and chose to unlock it with a sunroom. Beyond the practical benefits, their transformations reflect the emotional and lifestyle upgrades a sunroom can bring:

  • Increased Usability: Rain or shine, these spaces are always functional.

  • Enhanced Home Value: Each sunroom added aesthetic and financial value to the home, making it more appealing to potential buyers.

  • Tailored Designs: From sleek modern styles to warm and rustic looks, sunrooms can be customized to fit any lifestyle or aesthetic.
