We love the kitchen extension

7 years ago

Could you please let us know who designed it and built it? We are in a process of commissioning a similar project. We are also based in West London. Are you an architect? Thank you.

If you are staying in this house and need the space I would say extend for what you need but make sure sliding doors etc so room will be an extension of the garden. We thought the same about our kids as they grew up , spent less and less time in the garden , and now it's mainly us sitting out or if they or their friends join us , or have a meal outside and a few beers Also our weather doesn't lend itself to much drying outside so a good utility room or even a pull down rack onto an outside wall is fine..Our remaining garden is 10.5 metres by 10.5 and with a good sized shed and loads of shrubs and planting , and we still have plenty of room for sitting out, a table and chairs and loads of space around. We have a line with connections to two walls that winds up so when you have people around your wet clothes aren't hanging around, and we had a climbing framed and slide for the kids until a few years ago when it went to a good home. I would say go for it!

My suggestion woukd be to knock through your kitchen and dining room. Turn your existing study into a utility/bootroom/pantry. Put a door with a keypad lock on it (similarly the side gate) which will really encourage you/the kids to use it raher than the front door. Put your kitchen cabinets floor to ceiling along the stairs wall and continue to the back of the house with the last door being a ’secret’ door into the boot room. At the bottom end of the stairs ne of this run of cabinets' , build a lower level cabinet to house the guinea pigs (following the kitchen cabinet line but not tall so the stairs don’t feel narrow). Don’t worry about your comfy chair but definitely Use the money you save on not building an extension to tidy up your patio and get some comfy chairs out there. Maybe even a glass veranda cover if money allows. Similarly, buy comfy bar stools for your island and you’ll sit there all day. Make sure you have a socket in your island somewhere to plug in a laptop. The kids can do their homeweork there while you potter. The rest of the dining room become a dining/sitting room and your living room becomes a snug/study. These two activities rarely happen at the same time but it means that working from home is not confined to a cupboard. Your front door is then a non-muddy entrance for grown ups and guests. One last thing, if you have a dog, put a hot/cold mixer tap outsude the bootroom to rinse the dog outside before bringin him in. Good luck with it all.

I think you might be being pessimistic about the larger plan putting you in negative equity and consulting a local estate agent may help (although choose wisely as around my area they all seem inexperienced and clueless). For me I believe that most of us don’t make commercial decisions on our home as we see it as an investment in the way we live. So you should consider if the 1800x900 island in the smaller plan meets you expectation, and if the tight dining room would be a problem. Personally I think you will conclude that bigger is better- especially as you gain a WC space that is big enough to be a shower room (thereby future proofing this house into your old age.)
