Is it big enough...?
Comments (4)Hello Matt, if your furniture position on a plan is how you plan it to have, then in general 4,5 m width should be enough. Although, furniture scale on a plan is not quiet right. It is ok for sit.room, where roughly you will need 0,5m for fireplace, 1m width of the sofa, 0.5 width of coffee table and you still have 2,5m to walk around. It still might be ok for kitchen, where kitchen cabinets depth is 600-650mm + you need allow min 750mm for doors opening, island depth is around 1m and another 750mm for doors opening, you still will have around 1350-1400mm left. You even could add some cabinets at the opposite wall, which you left empty on a plan. So far so good, but it might be small for your dining room. Table for 10 seats usually has Length around 2.4-2.5m and you will need min 0.8m on each side for seats and to walk around. Another point here, your dining table position will always be on your way, anywhere you go. I will recommend to choose round table instead. Round table for 10 seats usually has Diameter 1.8m + require 0.8m for each seat around table. It will give you better flow from room to room. Therefore, 4,5 m width is ok, everything will fit fine. But if you can get this 0.5m, better get it! It doesn't sound a lot but this 500mm will improve your lifestyle!...See Moreis this couch big fort living room?
Comments (27)It’s very comfortable to sit on. We got the matching pouffe too which can easily be moved around to use it either as a corner sofa or move it in the middle as a table. It’s easy to clean especially if you have kids. The number of times we spilt liquids on it. Super easy to clean with furniture wipes and ages very well. If we bought another sofa I think we would have regretted it. I hope this helps :)...See MoreIs a 2m by 1m space big enough for an en-suite?
Comments (3)I think so, by using a small toilet, small basin and small shower. For example, 60cm projection toilet, 60cm wide area for sink and 80cm wide area for shower. But it would be cramped. There are options, though. For example, toilets with built-in sinks, or making it a wet room....See MoreHelp with not-quite-big enough kitchen/dining room
Comments (13)Thought I knew that nice warm light in the photos. I'm from Melbourne but now in the UK and this is the UK Houzz site your on :) A few things that are specific to AU to check. When I last renovated I discovered due to building regulations we had to have a laundry sink near the washing machine. On a garage conversion. Here's some info I found: Since you're converting a non-habitable space into a habitable space, you will need to get a building permit for your garage conversion. An architect or building designer can tell you if your garage is suitable for conversion and what the requirements are. These may include: Ceiling height of at least 2.4 metres, which may involve structural changes The concrete slab must be waterproof, termite resistant and perfectly level if you're using certain garage floor coverings Walls must be waterproofed and insulated Windows must cover an area at least 10% the size of the floor area Walls within 900mm of property boundaries must be fire rated, which may limit the location of windows and doors Many local councils across Australia require that a home has provision for covered parking, so a garage conversion might not be possible unless you have a second garage or add a carport first. I'd check with the council on that. After all that I think taking out your wall between the kitchen and laundry will give you the best value for your extra space. And if you want more Australia specific advice you can pop the question onto the Australian Houzz site. 👍🏻...See MoreJade Davis
