Extension and layout ideas needed please!
Comments (28)In defense of my plan it is all about find a way to have stairs that rise all the way to the attic level and creating a slightly larger footprint so that there is enough space to justify extending upwards in the future while giving you 5 bedrooms now. The stairwell has a planned new window so would have light. The proposed plan to put a room on stilts above the garage sounds like you will be paying for engineering that could be spent adding square footage instead if you build out in another direction. In any case the garage is smaller than your current main bedroom and ensuite so seems like a master suite here would be a backwards step and you certainly wouldn't create a 5th bedroom in this space. I also think that my suggestion can be done in stages with the removal of the wall between the kitchen and dining room and the extension above now. When you have done this and bought a new kitchen and redecorated you will have used a lot of your current budget and will have a lovely four bedroomed house although it could be made into five by splitting the space across two of the biggest bedrooms to make three...See MoreVictorian converted flat - ground floor extension - layout ideas!
Comments (6)Morning, Extending the kitchen (and lounge) area out into the garden is a great way to make room for that extra bedroom. We have worked on many similar projects in the past. We are a London based kitchen company with a great eye for deign and making the most of all kitchen spaces. If you would like advice or to discuss further please do get in touch. It would be great to hear some of your requirements needed to be incorporated into the kitchen design to include appliances etc. would also be helpful to get a feel for the style and colours you are interested in. Please feel free to get in touch with us via houzz or by email lj@pad.london Libra...See MoreRear extension layout design ideas please
Comments (9)Hi Ollie, How about moving the door into the Utility Room so that is accessible from the Kitchen side, thus freeing up the wall where the current Utility room door is, and I would recommend you have some form of wall storage on that wall, as you don't immediately see it when you walk into the room. The kids benches could be off that wall too, so that on either side of the chimney breast and as you walk in the room you could have some open shelves / artwork. When the kids are not playing, you could turn this area into a yoga place! And yes, I agree your table could overlap a little with your existing house, unless you have a large beam above, not hidden in the thickness of the floor joists above. Also, I wonder if a round / oval table will work better in your case, and don't forget the lighting relative to your rooflights!...See MoreIdeas for better layout of extension on ground floor please
Comments (16)Hi Ellie. It's a good point. I assumed these detailed points have already been discussed between the architect and the client. If Chris wants to have the fireplace for the lounge/lliving space then the room with a dining table to the front and the kitchen + island counter to the rear will be split. My understanding was that the room at the rear extension is the main dining space and the room to the front was going to be used for occasional formal dining. It all depends on how the space is going to be used. It looks like it's possible to have a smaller dining table in the rear extension if the island is reorganised or removed. There are severalf physical and planning constraints so Chris needs to define his priority....See Morechris smith
