Comments (6)How large is the bed in the master bedroom? If it is a standard size double you may wish to consider reconfiguring to fit a superking bed. This could be achieved by reducing the height of the 'his dressing' cupboard (assuming you have no full-length garments), something which may make it easier to fit larger rooflights (if allowed). As minnie101 points out the existing floorplan gives you loads of storage but do you need it all? A more radical step could be to share the 'hers dressing' 50:50, have built-indrawers running along the top of the property (where 'his dressing' is), make the top right storage area smaller (or even eliminate), and have even larger windows/rooflights than One Plan suggested....See MoreWhat colour and type of floor tiles?
Comments (11)Hi Donna, the world is your oyster really, your kitchen sounds quite neutral so you can go for almost anything. Gillian is right there are lots of porcelain wood effect tiles around these days and some look better than others. Porcelain tiles are very practical and hardwaring and easy to keep clean. Think about the look you are trying to achieve, do you want the floor to look ultra plain or would you consider a concrete/stone effect tile? Stone effect tiles can look stunning and will hide a multitude of sins, necessary if you have children or animals in the house. Natural stone is also a possibility but these do require more maintenance. Hope that gives you a few ideas. Have a look through our website for more inspiration.

Comments (4)There's lots of different floorplan layouts which you can find by searching old posts. I personally don't see much point in a downstairs shower room unless there is a bedroom on ground floor - with loft conversion too, you should have at least two showers elsewhere in the house which should be enough most of the time - if you've still got the toilet in a separate room upstairs then I recommend keeping it that way so that someone can shower while someone else on toilet, saving lots of morning arguments - not everyone agrees with that though! Having a walk-in pantry accessed from the kitchen would be much more practical and valuable for re-sale in my opinion. Having a separate utility is also highly desired, and of course a toilet on ground floor. There are still a few different layouts that provide those rooms though - including using the space under stairs if it's got enough head room. I think a lot of people open up the reception rooms to get light from front and back into the 'middle room' - and they usually do the opening up if they can squeeze the utility and loo somewhere else (under stairs for loo and using your old kitchen space as utility for example). Or keep the front room as separate sitting room and the middle room becomes the dinig room with access from kitchen. At the end of the day, do what works for you and your family - chances are if it works for you then it'll work for others!...See More
