Please can anyone offer some advice.
At the back of our house we have a kitchen and alongside it a dining room. There's a wall separating them. A few years ago we added an extension to the back of the house which increased the size of the kitchen and at the end of the dining room created a breakfast room. There's no wall separating these. It means we now have a [ ] ]shaped space, you can
[ ]
walk down the kitchen round the breakfast room into the dining room(hope this makes sense) the problem we have is that the extension is nice and light but the dining room is dark and rarely used.
My idea was to knock down the separating wall and open up the space to make one big square shape then have kitchen in the same place, move dining table to bottom by French doors and then where the current dining room is make it into a family room with sofa and tv etc.
But
I've just seen a similar space on some home program and I don't know if I liked it. I don't like clutter and prefer things to be tidy and clean looking spaces, whereas this house seemed to have too many zones in one space making it look cluttered.
Has anyone got a similar space and what is it like?
