Terraced house - reconfigure upstairs layout - advice needed!
Comments (10)I know! We’re exploring options and are unsure on the best most cost effective solution. We’ve considered squeezing a shower into the downstairs WC, could be done but tight. We have ruled out an extension as the house already requires extensive updating and due to its age we know we will need budget set aside to account for the unknowns! As for extending WC into dining room we hadn’t thought of that, but we have a plan to move an external door to that area so that wouldn’t really be an option either. So difficult!...See MoreLayout advice pls: Wraparound extension - Victorian end terrace house
Comments (1)Kitchen space looks great, Ground floor living/dining as seaprate rooms - do you need a separate dining room? Do the rooms marked living/dining need a dividing wall - or would they be more useful as a larger room with flexiblilty over furniture/use? I guess its the island in the kitchen eating up the space. Issue with Islands is they are single purpose blobs in the middle of the room....See MoreWhat can I do with this Victoria terrace (layout revamp or extension)
Comments (12)Hiya, I would very much want to get a bathroom in upstairs and as that is not easy to do, would strongly recommend you engage a professional. If you could make your budget stretch, it would totally be worth it to demolish the existing ugly extension and replace with with a full width, single storey fully glazed structure. It would not need to be as deep which would give you more garden, and roof lights would bring light deeper into the house. Use the under-stairs space for a downstairs loo (and laundry?) and depending on who lives there or might in the future, consider dividing off the sitting room to make a cosy, quieter space. This could be done with double or pocket doors if you expect to want to keep the space open most of the time. Could the porch area house the storage currently shown at the end of the hall? Taking the hall to the end would be the obvious route into the kitchen diner and with a glass heavy front door and a glazed door into the kitchen, more light would be pulled through. I hope this is helpful!...See MoreVictorian terrace layout dilemma
Comments (9)Hi, It sounds like the front room has some lovely period features, so I can understand why you'd like to keep that as the adults movie night with a glass of wine type room! You could keep the kitchen as it is and open up the dining room and back reception so it all feels a lot more open plan. You could also incorporate more of the end of the hall corridor and add in a loo under the stairs, by making the kitchen accessed through the back room. It depends on how you see yourselves living - what would make life easiest and most enjoyable for you.
