Have you done a small 'lean to' side return extension, if so, what was the total cost?
I am in a narrow Victorian terrace. I'd like to add a space with a sloping glass roof (atrium style windowed I think- with a pane that opens slightly for ventilation) and a large pane of glass at the wall end looking into the garden.
I don't want much else. I'd like to keep the existing dining room as is, even keep the current sash window as a feature. Replacing the existing outer doors and adding a pane of glass in the new side return section would be fine, if it cost a lot less than full width bifold doors (I presume the supporting wall would have to be knocked out and supported).
How much do you think that would cost?
Any advise/knowledge would be very welcome.
Ps. I know I'd have issues with the floor level, which is (annoyingly) raised in the kitchen higher than the side return, so would impact on levelling and wall height issues etc. Drsin relocation could be a factor, if having them under the floor was s concern.
Any guidance/advise you can offer would be great. I am trying to be very realistic about what options I've got to improve the light and add a small 'garden view' seating area, so your wisdom would be invaluable. Thank you!
