Yes it would work well but I just spoke to my Realtor who informed me this isn't an option and hasn't heard of anyone doing this in the 20 years he's been in the business. However my trust in this particular Realtor is fading more everyday that goes by. I think I'll discuss this with my lawyer as apparently the banks (seller) lawyer has also stated that they have already perused every possible option available and the only thing to do is wait for the verdict from Wheatland which as far as I can tell will be a conditional variance based on removing the windows completely and possibly reinstalling special grade drywall on the entire right side of the house.
