Sunroom

What I would likely do as well is put some anti-glare/anti-heat film on the glass to help

For my personal cars to block heat I get the reflective/mirror window film for houses.
That stuff is amazing.
You can see out perfectly and it blocks more heat and UV than other window films I have seen.

Yes I installed it on my car windows.

My step-dad built theirs using 3 patio doors to enclose their patio. The roof already was there covering all of it so he didn't have to do a lot of wall framing with all the patio doors. He didn't do anything concrete wise like a footer, just built on the existing patio. Patios if done right should have a thickened slab at the edges.
Problem with theirs is that it's not heated or cooled. He should have used 1 less patio door and put in a window or two so he could have put a thru the wall or window ac heat unit.

BTW mom did the stained glass art.
