Hello Robin, No need to remove anything just add a huge mirror on the right hand wall with some height as I suggested earlier in the thread, then you will get a border reflected and also the arch! It is quite important to work with what you have, and you can cleverly with the oversized mirror! eBay have a shop for them! Once you paint frame to match the walls you will see how useful it could be. Possibly 8ft by 8ft as high as you can go to get the arch in! It's what I would do.. :))

Ettel you wouldn't have to change the off white walls if you went for whitewashed/limed pale wood or used a white oil or wax on it Scandi style. I haven't seen it done but I was thinking of kitchens and floors in this kind of wood that I have noticed on Houzz. I also thought of the slightly rougher wood cladding used externally on buildings that you may be able to get from a wholesaler in a smaller quantity. This could give you a nice kind of rustic effect but then it would be up to you if you wanted to follow that into full country style or go with a more modern rustic aesthetic. I have seen nice things from habitat that would work with that. Just a more minimal look than country. Sorry, I've never attached a photo on houzz.

Thanks Isla for responding . I don’t have a fortune so I won’t be getting anything custom built 😀 I will keep exploring i agree, I am sure there is something out there I can probably use . The flooring .. love the idea of tiles in the porch but I really need to move away from carpet in the hallway as the flow of taking coats and shoes off for my little ones is a little congested at the entrance . I think I considered LVT because I eventually want to extend the flooring from the hallway into the dining room through to the kitchen. I would image tiles can be cold and slippery. What would be your choice if tiles aren’t the option ? What’s your experience with LVT ? I did consider kardean but this seems pricy and not sure how it outweighs LVT such as amtico. Look forward to hearing your thoughts .
