Comments (15)All the above posts are excellent...................however, nobody seems to have mentioned the drain position. I'm a little concerned that some of the plans above may be unachievable because you'll never get to the drainage. Can you confirm where the main drain is. If you're really lucky, then they may cut across the property and it's conceivable that you have a drain outside the kitchen or even a manhole in the garage ( we've got one in ours, as the drain makes it's way to the front ).

Comments (7)I would never expect a downstairs WC in a 2 bed house to be honest. It's very rare to find this so it really depends if it's something you really want? Do you have space under the stairs to put one? Utility space could be fitted in but it doesn't have to be big. There are some very clever concealed cupboards that you could have inbuilt into the kitchen side that could house the washer/dryer with hanging space for clothes etc and space for your other bits without it blocking off the end of your kitchen. We were going to build a large utility room off our new kitchen but then Jonathon mentioned about the space it's taking up in the garden, so we have trimmed it down and we have moved the kitchen and are now using some of our bathroom for it. It will only be narrow but it's sufficient....See MoreVictorian flat kitchen renovation on a budget- advice in London
Comments (31)Good news that a builder is coming over. I suspect all the green walls I have drawn are originals and can’t be changed without permission- you can probably tell by their thickness relative to thinner partition walls but it would be good to check. As Bobby said you need to know where the buildings soil pipes are because this will dictate where you can put a wc. There may however be more than one- I suspect your wc pipes go under the kitchen and exit near the kitchen window. 1- get the builder to tell you if there is any extra bit to the left of your kitchen window that has been hidden behind boxing- extra square footage is nearly always useful. Are there original doorways (2 & 3) that could be reinstated- look for telltale signs in the skirting board, flooring, hollow walls where an opening has just been boarded over, door shaped cracks in the decorating etc....See MoreBought a flat - Now planning the works!

Comments (5)I’d say it be a tight squeeze to fit in a 2nd bedroom. I’d put the bedrooms together and the lounge and bathroom in side return. Maybe leave a courtyard for light for the kitchen and 2nd bedroom? You could maybe open up half the wall between kitchen and new lounge. Just throwing out ideas! No clue what would be structurally and financially feasible 🙂...See MoreAitch Interiors Ltd
