It used to be a window in the dining room, carport was closed in to make a den. This was the solution about 40 yrs ago. Window is gone the shutters remain. HELP, I need a simple solution that won’t break the bank. We can’t make a larger opening there because of the fireplace on the opposite wall in the den. Picture taken on the dining room side undergoing updates which has plenty of light. The den side is very dark, it only has one window and glass in part of the side door.
