Against the advice of literally every person we talked to (with the main argument being 'resellability') our new home is being built with one!
I love this. For the past few years I've fully embraced the whole "our house is for us, not the next buyer" mentality and not making good choices for the next owners is great.
I don't give a shit if other people don't like my paint colors, it isn't their wall!
If they don't like the paint, they can repaint. If they don't like the conversation pit, they can remodel... which is gonna be more expensive but I have to imagine if you're buying a house with a conversation pit you're probably pretty well off already.
Could you not just preemptively have a plan in place to cover it up? Like “okay if we are going to sell we just drop in a floor on top and pretend it wasn’t there”?
If I get old and have to move out, it's their problem - I think by then it will have come full circle and be in vogue again.
I hope you don't plan on living there when you're older and need mobility aids!
But genuinely, I'm sure it's gonna look cool AF.
Usually a conversation pit is avoidable, as seen in the pictures. Shouldn't be enough to render the whole house unusable
The plan is def a forever home! If I can't make a step or two the whole house will be a wash, lmao
I feel like I remember somebody saying they tend to cause flooding or water damage? Like I guess the foundation can separate and water seeps in? I could be completely misremembering that though.
Wer'e on the top of the hill and the foundation is pier and beam, off the ground - we're gucci!
