I just purchased a slightly larger than I need 100 y.o. brick home with a finished attic and slate roof. I want to have 1 room set up as a workout room and another as an office. I'm in Northern OH, so humidity and temperatures span a LARGE range, and I've been told slate roofs function best when kept cold. Currently no central A/C in the house.
Attic bedroom would be ideal for the office (it has double windows overlooking the yard) but I'm concerned about heat fluctuations and honestly, will I trudge up 3 flights of stairs to use the office? Or, I could use the 2nd largest BD (on 2nd floor) as the combo office/winter workout room and use the attic as the 2nd spare bedroom....probably only used during holiday times.
So, anyone else have a house/situation like this? Any recommendations?
