Ground floor flat - side return and rear extension. Why the courtyard?

Hi, would love some suggestions and help please!


I want to go ahead with a side return and rear extension into the garden, on my ground floor flat in SW London.


Firstly, does anyone have suggestions to avoid the courtyard which all these conversions seem to have. I understand its so the second bedroom has a window - however is it not possible to move the window higher up? Or add a sky light? Are there other reasons people avoid this - drainage etc?


Additionally, I would ideally like 2 bedroom, 2 bath. One ensuite, and one additional bathroom or happy with just a WC by the kitchen. Do people have suggestions on how they would configure this?


Many thanks for your help.
