This would not be so simple for us. We have a lot of stuff and most of my electronics are impracticable to move, plus my wife has every closet filled so it would be taking up an entire guest room. Would take massive preparation for something like that, but I don't think I'd ever get enough equipment put away to be comfortable with someone in here for days by themselves. The only option would be to rent out part of the house and completely lock up other areas.
