Boot room storage

Ben Cartwright Bespoke Joinery

4 years ago

Turned a spare room in a barn conversion into a multi use space. Storage for shoes / coats etc with a nice open display in 2 areas in oak to give a nice contrast against the blue. Low level bench to sit at to put shoes on or just sit back and enjoy the space. Really enjoyed making this project fully designed and made by myself from start to finish.

Thanks kerrydonn and minnie 101 for getting back to me with your comments. I thought it was going to be a struggle to have this new room as kitchen, diner and family area too which is why I thought I'd see what others have to say. The extension we are having is only 3m x 5m as the other 2m is coming from half of an existing dining room and kitchen to make the whole area 5 x 5. At the moment we have a massive dining room and fairly large kitchen but they are separate and if we knock through we just end up with the 2 rooms, plus utility & cloakroom downstairs, and that just wouldn't be big enough. So the plan is to split the last 3rd of the dining room and kitchen off and use that together with the new extension to make one big room. The part of the dining room left will become a spare bedroom and ensuit and the part of the kitchen left will be corridor with a big boot room/storage. It was have lots of cupboards and storage and as it leads into what will be the new extension it can house a fair amount of kitchen stuff too, along with coats, shoes, hoovers, mop - all that stuff you never have anywhere for it to go. I guess we'll just have to wait and see to make final decisions once the structure starts to come together. Bye for now.

sorry hbutchart I missed your post. rubber flooring could be a good idea from a safety wet area point of view but it could look a little 'commercial' but again the right product and colour can look great. I would also check how this type of flooring would work with underfloor heating. If you sont use rubber either ceramic tiles or vinyl tiles would be perfect the vinyl tiles come in many styles concrete, slate and wood effects habe a look at Expona on line its a great product.

Tobias, I am planning on doing less in the boot room - have even looked at much simpler carpentry as I think it is just too much. Its quite a big space and I was worried that we were wasting it having what is essentially massive seats so just on one side and a bit more manageable like this or this This would mean just one side and so easier to accommodate a wider door from boot to kitchen. Outside the back where the bi-folds will be is going to be a paved terrace - out the boot room leads to the big gardens pool and tennis court. We would slip out the kitchen via the bifold to the bins which will be placed behind the garage and behind a wall from the paved terrace. We want a shower room downstairs because we have a pool and it stops the kids running up he stairs with wet feet. Not sure what you mean here If you want wow - don’t but the living room wall back when you remove it or have a door from the kitchen to the hall. Slice everything open full height vertically to the ceiling you have enough of an interesting floor plan to create private spaces and an enclosed front room. You will have a wow entrance and staircase as well as dining room and kitchen. Do you mean no wall on the living room? Can you draw what you mean when you say slice everything open full height? Yeah always looking at new stuff and new ideas that I can integrate into the space - useful storage doesn't have to be cupboards. Quite fancy the bottom two stairs lifting up to reveal a bit of secret shoe storage. Thanks for your ideas - I am really keen to have views. Keima
