All of that except the door is easy to do at low cost.
Whether you can get a nice isolated place depends on the particular place you're living.
But I was never arguing that isolation isn't necessary! Please look again at the initial comment I replied to.
"Either you paid for more space or you lost space at your home during the 8 hours you were previously working at an office."
My concern was only with the second half of that "or". To get to the second half of the "or", you have to take it as given that there's a suitable spot in your home. When you argue that many homes don't already have such a spot, I agree, but that's irrelevant to what I was trying to comment on.
Everything I've said here should be interpreted like this: "Okay, so you've decided you don't need an additional room? Well in that case, I don't think the space taken up by working from home in an existing room is a big deal, because xyz."
