Need votes - downstairs loo or loft conversion?

We’re moving into a tumbledown 30s home and after all the remedial work we can only afford EITHER a loft conversion with bedroom and shower/loo OR a side extension with a study and a downstairs loo.

DH and I are going round in circles so we need more opinions!

Additional info:

  • Current and only bathroom is on first floor - the type where the loo is separated from the room with sink/bath.
  • Elderly visiting relatives would struggle with stairs to get to loo on first floor.
  • House has 2 double rooms and a box room now - converting loft would mean losing the box room for the stairs up

Strong opinions about the location of toilets very welcome.

IABUQueen - it would be sort of off the kitchen/dining area - but it’s all open plan to the living area anyway.

No DCs yet - planning to crack on with that next year.

Re: size - the study would fit a single bed I think, but the loo wouldn’t be big enough for a shower.
