Need help with the outside of my house
Comments (57)Agree with Oneplan about the glazed porch so you don't lose light, think you should let her draw up elevation plan for builders. Agree with people telling you to play up the asymmetry. Also think you should have a tame( not rampant) flowering climber up the posts around the porch. Something that tolerates shade. If has thorns may discourage kids climbing up on porch roof....See MoreEmpty, bland entrance... into bright, practical and charming Mudroom!

Comments (18)My plan shows steps down from the kitchen to the garden room as I noticed the wc was on a lower level. I still prefer my plan because:- you end up with a bigger living room (on the first floor) and the plan suggests there is a balcony outside these windows; you move the dining room to the entrance level and then put an opening to the hallway so that the hall seems bigger and your first impression is improved; the front basement room will have the most limited outlook and light so in my opinion should be a gym or guest room, you have a kitchen in the heart of the house; you have a living space at a likely similar height to the garden; the main bedroom moves up a floor to a likely quieter position; the guest rooms all have fewer stairs for the parents; and you don’t have to take out major walls to achieve this. But of course this is all based on the plans provided but you know your house best. Perhaps now you are getting some ideas you should consider the available budget and explore some of the layouts with a designer or concept planner....See MoreOutside 1920’s less ugly ideas needed
Comments (7)Well, I really like your house! Love the roof and porch roof, full of character. There is a new type of render that is already coloured so never needs repainting. Maybe that can be applied on top of your rendering? You would have to check with a builder or decorator on that. The windows aren’t that bad, but if you want to change them to wood then do so, but they will need a lot of maintenance so think carefully. Are you up to painting them every few years, or can you afford to pay someone to do it? You have a very pretty house with a nice front wall!...See MoreA Saltbox Design
