The front dormer is part of our master bedroom and the back dormer was the nonfunctional powder room (only a sink and toilet). This was a project we knew we&#8217;d want to eventually do from day one of looking at the house. <em>Who wants to go down and up stairs every day to shower and get dressed?&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This was probably our most ambitious project and we couldn&#8217;t of done it without the help of our family. My grandmothers husband Frank was the biggest help. He&#8217;s a contractor and brought his crew over a couple of days to help us frame in the space and do the roof. Michael and my brother Marshall were also a big help.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-4493 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-medium'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div
