I have an eat in kitchen (22ft x 11ft) it has a utility room at the rear which is a good size 11ft x 7ft. It currently houses a fridge freezer, washing machine, sink, another freezer and some open shelves.It has turned out to be a bit of a wasted space and a dumping ground.
I would like to knock down the stud wall and still keep everything but the sink (its on the stud wall) and hide it all behind floor to ceiling cupboard doors that match the kitchen. I would lose the sink and would have to reduce the size of the window.
Cost may make it impossible as there is a boxed out area which i think has plumbing for the bathroom upstairs (new house to us and massively extended at some point).
This would give me another 5ft or so of extra space allowing me to put in a sofa making it more of a family space.
Has anyone done this or am i just mad to lose a utility room?
