For me, yes, quirky. Back to the drawing board. :)

Bill,

Thanks for your input... kind of what we were afraid of.

By the way ignore the strange closet/office entrance, that is a temporary (3-4 year) situation, eventually the closet would be closed off from the "Office" side and reconfigured to make the "Office" large enough to become a beyond.

Thanks,
William

Not sure what you intended with your last message -- 'beyond'?? Was that supposed to be 'bedroom' maybe?

However I see no problem with your plan. What I would not do is close off the 'office' from the 'closet'. Future folks may then use the present office entrance (door from hall) as the MBdrm entrance. The office could be a sitting room off that Bdrm creating a private MBdrm suite. Although you use it as an office, not everyone would choose to do so.

Actually I (as in me personally) wouldn't bother with a door from the family room. However if it suits your lifestyle/house use it would be an easy fix for someone down the road to remove it if they so wished.

One question: I'm probably dense but what's the green line about?

So now you've one fore and one agin. :-) Very helpful hunh?

Holly,

Thanks for your thoughts. I did mean bedroom, not sure how it came out as "beyond."

That is a good point about having both entrances. Not really sure if we will keep both, but you are right that closing them off or opening them up wouldn't be so difficult in the future.

To be honest, I think the green line was just our drafters way of showing that that particular wall is thicker than the rest.

it'd be fine for me. there are several on the board who have bedroom doors off of the family room or living room.
