Raising detached bungalow roof

Hi,
I’m hoping some of you might have experience or opinions on raising a roof to allow a loft conversion.

I have a small 1985 detached bungalow in Oxford. I’d like the house to just have a bit extra space and would like to stay put rather than move.

I don’t believe the current roof has the headroom for conversion so I’m considering ( but very aware it may be prohibitively expensive) the option of raising the roof.

I’ve just had an eye watering quote for the modular roof ( built elsewhere and craned I’m in one go).

Has anyone gone through the process of raising a roof?
Picture and floor plan in case it helps (and because pictures and floor plans are always nice!)

Thank you for any thoughts
