Nice space! The best place to start is with a piece of paper and pencil - work out how you and your family will walk through the space - is there a door at the back? Then draw the room (bird's eye view) with measurements, plan a space for dining and a space for cooking, making sure you can move around the space freely (you could draw this on the floor in chalk if that helps). Jot down all the particular requirements you have - which appliances are must haves, whether you want a breakfast bar, microwave, freezer, wine rack etc - then take all this along to a kitchen showroom so they can put plans together for you. Then you can have fun choosing units, worktops, splashbacks etc.

I'm slightly confused by trying to follow this thread, so apologies if this duplicates. Which way does the kitchen window face? Unless there is good reason-direct South? -it may be a pity to demolish any 1920's integrity, especially if only to install dated bi-fold doors. A large aluminium deco style window might be a better idea as it will add character as well as extra low level storage possibilities.Your doors to the garden could be sliding, with glazing bars, or Double French doors. (Photo suggestions attached) If you follow the graph paper plan, then you could also put a sink, dishwasher and noisy machinery in the utility area so that your main living space isn't affected by washing up. It could be a great prep area too and keep unnecessary noise to a minimum as acoustics are really important in a communal space. Food for thought! Best of luck.

Hi All, Sorry for delay as the project was side-lined for a while. But it’s back in force again and I have the design I wanted. Please see the attached floor plan idea. I am sorry the old floor plan I presented was just copied from estate agent advertisement and it missed the porch which is playing important role in new design. However, there is a problem with the design as it requires to trim some part of the front wall and my Architect is not sure if we can get approval for that. Can I ask you experts if it is advisable to trim the front section? Does it invite cracks sometime in future? The reason behind adding toilet shower in front to make use of soil pipe and avoid heavy digging the floor from middle of house. Also, I am thinking to remove the internal door to give good space. @Rinked, I really liked your design and that is my plan B if my plan doesn’t work out. Many thanks for your help so far.
