After some advice from more experienced home buyers/renovators. DH and I have accepted an offer on our house (just waiting for everything to go through) and have been looking for a 4 bed property. We have really struggled to find a 4 bed house that meets our requirements so are now considering 3 beds with potential for extension.
We have seen a lovely 3 bed detached house that has a large loft and were wondering about the possibility of a loft conversion which would become DH's study. Anyone have any idea how much (roughly) this would set us back? We were hoping to do it for £20,000 but not sure if that's wildly unrealistic as we're new to all this Also, would we need planning permission? How likely is it that this would be refused?
The house we are considering also has quite a large garden so plenty of room to extend at the back. Would this be a cheaper/more straightforward option?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
