Spliting up a large bedroom with Period trims
Comments (4)Hi Katherine, It sounds like a great space that can offer a real impact and still be a very cosy and relaxing space. It can be daunting to have such a large space to deal with at first, especially when there are features you don't want to touch. There are lots of different options for the space. I like the idea of opening up the fireplace as it would make a great feature for the room and a place to add a possible seating area for reading but I do agree that if down stairs is electric it is probably closed off. It is a bit of work and a messy job to get it changed. You shouldn't need to worry about planning but will obviously need to abide by building regulations. I think a lot of people place only a large bed and a select few piece of furniture in there types of rooms to draw attention and emphasis the gorgeous period features but there of course things we can do to add additional wardrobes in unobtrusive ways. I would agree to not adding a en-suit as it will unbalance the space. However, it is very hard to tell without any pictures? Would you be able to upload any? Alternatively you can forward some to enquiries@createperfect.co.uk and I will get back to you, or you can book a free consultation through our website and ill be happy to take a look.

Comments (16)Hi there, it will be hard to achieve an open floor plan with this side extension . In fact, it seems it would just complicate things in a very expensive way. If you don't need a 4th bedroom every day, but just occasionally for in-laws, can you make the garage into a small, compact guesthouse? If your kitchen feels too small, you might just want to relocate it to the room with the fireplace. I hope this helps, please let me know if you have any further questions, I will be more than happy to help. just drop me a line to service@betterspace.co...See More7.2m x 3.4m Apartment Floor Plan Ideas
Comments (9)Do you have room to have the entrance on the side as that helps enormously. You will still end up with a bed sitting lounge, but can fit a kitchen and range, a wet room and mezzanine above the kitchen. The only problem with this design is no storage, No separate bedroom so no wardrobe, chest of drawers etc This puts the front door at the front, but you still need to be right there with the soil pipe, so bathroom comes first. Kitchen with no window. Allows for mezzanine over kitchen but room for only one sleeping area, however, it is now separate from the lounge. S till not a lot of storage for clothes, which would have to be up on the mezzanine. By using the plan above and utilising the whole space over the kitchen and bathroom, you could have the mezzanine there. This gives you a separate sleeping area and possible storage....See MoreHouse layout with extension. 4 or 5 bedrooms?
Comments (27)Nice ideas Jonathan, and its great that you have spent time on this thread but in many ways you have resolved the issue by adding an extra box to the side and even more space onto the job (and about another £40k!) 1.I think it dubious that the planner would allow you to extend to both boundaries - I think you have already done well to get the size of extension you already have. 2. this also creates a penisular kitchen which brings us back to a further kitchen island design issue/conversation 3. if for no other reason but property value you would add a door into the utility or kitchen from the garage 4. I think you would need to potentially bring the front door forward to get the 'space' in the hallway but the centralised entrance gives you much better options for canopies/overhanging leaning to roof/lighting etc.. 5. you could potentially grab back the space under the stairs to the family room at the rear as this (and the front reception room both struggle for width) 6.In terms of the first floor layout you would be better served using the bathroom in the top left as the main bathroom for the house and take back the far right bathroom for the bedroom over the garage (also take back all of that nasty corridor that runs the width of the extension and bring the bedroom door adjacent to the neighbouring bedroom (then utilise the excessive corridor width to add wardrobes to the bedroom) 6.The airing cupboard appears to be about 1.2-1.5m deep which is probably a bit OTT 7.remember that there is still more storage space to be had over the stairs. 8. if the option is available in teh roof it might be nice to be able to add a rooflight to bring some natural light into the central enclose hall/landing space. I personally would say your 'slight tweaks on earlier plan' alternatives were better in terms of effective use and maximising space - the stairs would need to be fully worked out to maximise the remaining spaces and the hallway could be revised. Overall all thought great effort. G...See Moreshelleyuk
