Upstairs reconfiguration
E Cole
last month
Hello,
I've not posted here before and appreciate any help or replies.
We have seen a property that we like. However they have previously added a 2 storey extension taking it from a two bed cottage to a ’3 bed’. The problem is the 3rd bedroom is basically non existent and wouldnt even fit a cotbed. We need 3 have decent bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs.
Would anyone have any suggestions as to how we could achieve this and the possible costs involved please? We are unsure if its even possible.
Thanks so much

Narrow House (15.4ft / 4.7m) - what are my layout options?
Comments (9)HI -- gross635 -- Your right to some degree but you can't move the main floor bath to the other side because then that interfers with the floor plan on the second floor. Would not work . I would have loved to turn the whole plan around but it won't work in this case. Added note to what I posted before is to get rid of anywalls you don't need and also not every room has to have a door. Like the one on the lounge and the one at the end of the hall. I would open the lounge up by not having the walls on the entrance hall . As for a closet , there is space in front of the set back powder room for some coat hooks etc. I also question the fact of , if the lounge is really needed. Everything could have been shifted to the front and the kitchen set back , then that would have made a larger dining/familyroom area . But that would have ruined the resale value . So I think moving the bathrooms was the lest and best for this plan. One question I have , is this an English plan ?, because the English love putting doors on every room ?And usually the doors swing the wrong way....See MoreMain bath (guest) layout design
Comments (16)About your plumber saying "plumb layout is confirmed". That is a load of rubbish. It's fairly easy to move drains around (yes he might have to rip up some walls, but he can also do off-the-wall installations to avoid that). In a small bath proper placement is of the utmost importance!!! If you have the bathtub and shower next to each other that will be much better and then the glass separator idea should work. padmaramachandran's (see post above) setup sounds more reasonable to me as well (see first picture below). This is similar to your setup but as you have more space you could put in bath tub and shower where the picture only shows a bath tub. Also if you do it that way you could theoretically have a bidet or a wider wash basin (small double perhaps too). Example layout: Do you need a bathtub in the guest bath? If not you have a lot more room to work with. E.g. for a double wash basin and large walking shower and a bidet (2nd picture). Example of off-the-wall installation for toilet and bidet and a large walking shower. Finally if you ignore this advice and do it the way you planned ;) then I suggest you really thing about that glass separator. Doing it right will make a lot of difference (see 3rd picture). Good luck!...See MoreHelp wanted - trying to reconfigure rooms to accommodate an ensuite

Comments (0)Hello all, looking for some advice please. My 2 up 2 down had an extension tacked on the end back before planning regs came in to place. It houses kitchen, utility and bathroom. There is no garden, just a little alley way and the rooms are quite dark. I’d love to reconfigure to turn the kitchen and and dining to one, but not sure what to do about the bathroom. I can’t afford to move it upstairs. Is it worth trying to put it under the stairs area or should I leave it? Any tips? dining to one bigger room but stick...See MoreE Cole
