Comments (7)Hi, What a lovely place you have there. Bags of potential and some outside space too! I am with OnePlan I am afraid - I could do all the interiors bits and happy to make recommendations when needed but it is an architect or interior architect you will be looking for for any building work or planning. You could try the 'planning portal' if you have ideas you want to look into or even call your local planning office who should be able to point you in the right direction.

Comments (13)if you are on a budget - then you really need to focus you spend on key elements that will improve the build and/or add value. so work with the tiles etc. it won't look good being different and may actually devalue. but think new front door and ideally frame is a good idea - perhaps in a hard wood. also consider the window treatments eg roller blinds or voiles etc and how they will look from the reverse eg outside. this can be an easy way to smarten the front. and yes to some simple/architectural planting. the garage door could also be toned down to blend rather than be a 'feature' so you focus on entrance...See MoreRenovating a 1960's 3 bed detached - help with extension.
