" Anyhow my children Bethy age 8and half and Jacob 7
want to share a room and turn the other room into a playroom."

Part of unschooling is learning to listen to your heart, to your
children's hearts and IGNORING society.:)

Your children have come up with a creative solution that sounds
wonderful. Go for it!

Sounds very similar to the proposal I made to Sierra and Jalen, who
sleep together in my room anyway. We thought it would be cool to put a
bunk bed in her room, with all the books and stuffed animals and put
all the toys in his room (when we build it...right now they're sharing
by default) for a play area.
The bunk bed may not get used for some time, as they like sleeping
with us, but it would be great for company AND if they ever choose to
sleep somewhere away from me.:)
