Period flat layout

2 years ago

Hello,

We are dealing with an awkward period flat layout in that the bathroom is too small and kitchen isn't very usable for us in it's U shape as there is limited cupboard space and the fridge and washing machine stick out. Wondering if anyone has any layout ideas or knows if our idea would be feasible? We can't extend as we're a terrace house with 1 flat above and 1 flat below.

Thanks!

Brooke

Hi! Can you move wall between kitchen and bedroom (appart from the corner bit is it. Chimney breast?), would you be willing to shorten the bedroom just slightly?

Jen, are you sure everything is in proportion? I'm asking, because that store seems to be just a bit wider than a door (so about 1 m) which is fine, but doesn't give much space to manoeuvre inside it. Also, a bit too many doors in a small space, but I'm afraid I can't offer you a remedy for that. You have two wide, massive windows and a door in between, I think that will give plenty of light. Personally, I'd just add skylights or a glass roof. Or a long strip of glass all along What you don't seem to have is ventilation windows. Trust me, you're going to want one in the utility, or at least a good fan. Transom style windows could work too if you can open them. I really wish you'd see an architect... there are lots of different, small things that a professional can spot from miles away that you wouldn't even consider. As I said, I regret we didn't; our house is great, but it could've been even better!

http://www.homebuilding.co.uk/2012/03/30/cladding-new-facades-for-ugly-homes/ Hi. You may get more responses if you upload some pics. What elements of georgian architecture do you like? If you like sash windows why not look at the attached or maybe consider a New England style houses as sashes were common? Is the ground floor of the house wide enough to take a door and 2 windows?

Hello Houzz Ireland, We are currently renovating a 1960's build - so as you know, there is a lot of decisions to be made!! So it would be nice to get some gems of advice from the experts to help us through this daunting task. Areas where we would really like some inspiration for - small bathroom downstairs. I would really like to do something fun with this room and although small, I think it could work really well with some funky wallpaper or possibly tiles?! I'm just not sure what to do with it. Also - pulling a whole house together?! Where do we start? We have the bigger pieces of furniture but how do I know what nest of tables goes best with a suite? Or what accessories will bring a room together? I'm due a second baby in 2 weeks time so any help at this stage would be so amazing - to guide me on the right interior design path for our new house. Thanks, Laurie

Thank you so much for coming back to me, I really appreciate it. We are now thinking a max 30 sq metre extension and we'll have to tear down the poorly constructed extension that's there at the moment that houses the kitchen and utility etc. The front room will be a formal Living room and the next room which is currently the dining room will become the open plan living dining kitchen. I need to include a utility playroom and office in there somewhere too

Sometimes less is more. My kitchen is just 230cm, so the fridge freezer, oven and washing machine are in our bootroom, just off the kitchen. Might be an idea (if allowed in hallways)?
