Comments (7)Hi Robyn, your proposed layout looks good. Our one suggested consideration would be the entry point to your room from the hall. This will be you main traffic route into the space. If there is cooking or prep going on in kitchen then it could be effected with people walking through (or kids running). We would look at change the door position to be on same wall as the door into your front room. This would create extra wall space for kitchen units (by blocking up current door) while allowing an entry point thorough the casual seating area instead of busy kitchen...See MoreIdeas wanted for Kitchen/Diner/ Living Layout - which way to go?
Comments (11)As requested. It was all about the kitchen area, but I went ahead and did the whole ground floor, trying to keep in mind flow, storage and practicality. Perhaps even a future downstairs bedroom instead of playroom, hence the shower room. I extended the hallway to create extra storage (vacuum cleaner, pantry), making the kitchen back wall go optically flush with the hallway wall (is that correct english?). No double doors to the front lounge, to keep it cozy. The long cloakroom seemed unpractical, so I downsized it, made a nice little hallway toilet, while still leaving 1m2 plant area in the utility. The side entrance area is made wider, about 160cm, so it can be used as bootroom (seemed more logical to store most shoes and coats here instead of front porch), with shower room and utility on the side, major plus is natural light! Back to the kitchen. In the floorplan below you see a 230x95cm dining table, a 250x250cm corner sofa, an extra long island 336x98cm and at least 4 tall units plus 'coffee station' behind it. It will all fit in, as that was your original question, right? ;) I'd reconsider the rooflights, as a south facing room will most likely get plenty daylight in with the full width windows/doors (all panels have the same size, my old software didn't accept drawing the bifold in 3 panels). But if you are set on some light from above, pick two narrower rooflight models that go near the structural beam, in line with the old window on the side (or was it a doorway?), which I kept as I love a bit of quirk.

Comments (7)Hi, I definitely wouldn’t install a toilet next to the dining area (no privacy), not would you have room to create a corridor - you’d need 3ft for sure and that would leave you with only 7 ft 7” in the dining area, which is a bit of a squash. So the best idea is to create a utility/toilet in the kitchen, as you say, on the left behind the stairs. If the wall between the back door and the sitting room is 3ft-3ft 6” I think you could create this space without moving the back door. But it would be big enough fir toilet, cloakroom basin and the washing machine and dryer stacked, if you have one. You mentioned turning the window into glass doors, but I’d be reluctant to do that simply because you then lose more wall space for the kitchen cabinets and you’re already losing a wall between the kitchen and dining area. But you could change the back door for a fully glazed one to let more light in. I tried putting an island with overhang (3ft in depth to allow for bar stools and storage) but the space would very tight, even running the island vertically on the plan as you need the best part of 3ft to walk either wide of it, so possibly a peninsular would fit best. As you are short of wall space for the fridge freezer, would you consider installing it under the stairs, depending on its size? Ps I meant to say, best option for the toilet door in the kitchen would be a sliding ?barn style door or pocket door if you had the room....See MoreJonathan
