We reworked it into a private secondary suite and a bright, hardworking mudroom entrance, so every square foot now has a purpose, and the whole wing feels like it was always meant to be there.  - ![Colonial Park Secondary Suite Remodel Living Space](https://reinventingtheremodel.com/hs-fs/hubfs/WeeksPark-1.jpg?width=1024&height=683&name=WeeksPark-1.jpg) - ![Colonial Park Secondary Suite Renovation Double closet](https://reinventingtheremodel.com/hs-fs/hubfs/WeeksPark-44.jpg?width=1024&height=683&name=WeeksPark-44.jpg) ## The Vision   Colonial Park carries a piece of Wichita Falls history. After the 1979 tornado tore through the neighborhood, many homes lost their garages. When families rebuilt, a common approach was to enclose the old garage as a second living area or a bedroom and bath, then add a new garage behind it. The work was solid and the extra room was welcome — but the layouts were often thrown together with little thought for flow, efficiency, or how people would actually live in them. Forty-plus years later, this home showed exactly that. Coming in from the garage meant walking straight through a large bedroom to reach the heart of the house — an open den, kitchen with island, formal dining, and formal living. The bedroom had no real privacy, the laundry was cramped, the shower was undersized, and a lot of square footage simply wasn’t pulling its weight. The homeowners needed that space to work two ways: a comfortable, private suite for family members or overnight guests, and a practical everyday entrance where the family could come in from the garage, drop their things, and step into the home without walking through someone’s bedroom. Just as important, they wanted the  finished result to look intentional — as if the house had been designed this way from the start. This was our fourth or fifth project with these homeowners, and that history shaped the process. They already knew how we work — design and budget developed together, options laid out clearly before construction begins — and they trusted us to solve a puzzle that had frustrated the house for decades. The finished design and functionality exceeded their expectations, and it has quickly become one of the most-used parts of their home.   - ![Wichita Falls Texas Bathroom Remodel](https://reinventingtheremodel.com/hs-fs/hubfs/WeeksPark-25.jpg?width=1024&height=1536&name=WeeksPark-25.jpg) - ![Wichita Falls TX Bathroom Remodel](https://reinventingtheremodel.com/hs-fs/hubfs/WeeksPark-7.jpg?width=1024&height=1536&name=WeeksPark-7.jpg) - ![Wichita Falls Bathroom Renovation](https://reinventingtheremodel.com/hs-fs/hubfs/WeeksPark-14.jpg?width=1024&height=1536&name=WeeksPark-14.jpg) - ![Wichita Falls Colonial Park Bathroom Remodel](https://reinventingtheremodel.com/hs-fs/hubfs/WeeksPark-20.jpg?width=1024&height=1536&name=WeeksPark-20.jpg) ## Design & craft   The key move was relocating the door to the garage. Shifting it over let us carve out a dedicated laundry, mudroom, and utility zone that doubles as the hallway in from the garage. It also took the garage door out of sight from the main living areas, so the view from the kitchen and den now reads as a quiet hallway leading to the rest of the home. Rather than adding new openings everywhere, we put the home’s existing features to work. An existing window now brings natural light into the laundry room, making a compact space feel open and inviting, and the laundry room gained access to the backyard as well as from the garage entry. The laundry area itself was significantly enlarged, with room for a true drop zone where shoes, bags, and keys land on the way in. The bedroom was reshaped into a genuinely private retreat, with new windows added to bring in light and meet the needs of a sleeping room. One of the trickier details was the home’s main electrical service and breaker panel, which sat inside the bedroom. Relocating the entire service and its wiring would have added significant cost and disruption, so we designed the room around it — enclosing the panel cleanly while keeping it accessible, and letting the layout work with the existing infrastructure instead of against it. The bathroom received a significantly larger, more comfortable shower and a second entry. That dual-access design gives the family flexibility: with both doors in use, the bath functions as a guest bath for the main living areas; closed off to the hallway, it becomes the private en suite bath for the secondary bedroom. The space can shift as the family’s needs change. The finishes reflect the homeowners’ love of color. In the shower, bold green tile set in a vertical pattern draws the eye upward and makes the space feel taller. Rich wood tones bring warmth throughout, and light, bright walls provide crisp contrast that lets both the color and the wood stand out. And in every space — bedroom, bath, laundry, and entry — the design takes full advantage of natural light, so the whole wing feels open, fresh, and welcoming.   - ![Wichita Falls bedroom remodel](https://reinventingtheremodel.com/hs-fs/hubfs/WeeksPark-45.jpg?width=1024&height=1536&name=WeeksPark-45.jpg) - ![Wichita Falls Bedroom Renovation](https://reinventingtheremodel.com/hs-fs/hubfs/WeeksPark-41.jpg?width=1024&height=1536&name=WeeksPark-41.jpg) - ![Wichita Falls TX Bedroom Remodel](https://reinventingtheremodel.com/hs-fs/hubfs/View%20into%20the%20Bedroom.jpg?width=1024&height=1536&name=View%20into%20the%20Bedroom.jpg) - ![Wichita Falls Texas Laundry room remodel](https://reinventingtheremodel.com/hs-fs/hubfs/WeeksPark-70.jpg?width=1024&height=1536&name=WeeksPark-70.jpg) ## Have space in your home that isn’t working for you?
