Where to fit WC - layout attached

[springmachine]

We've lived here a year, but due to elderly parents visiting along with young child at home have found that a downstairs WC would help.

I can't work out where to put on though.

The kitchen on the floor plan looks like an L shaped kitchen but is in actual fact a galley kitchen with a small conservatory lean to tacked onto the side.

This could be knocked down and rebuilt but is the main source of light into the dining room as the original dash window still remains and looks out to the conservatory.

Budget - £15k

I've had architects round but thy want me to commit to paying their fee proposal before submitting design ideas and then if they come in over budget we will be back at square one...

Can’t you fit one under the stairs?

Otherwise you’re looking at a major kitchen rejig.

I'd have it here, and then the purple is a new back door?

Oops

Stairs are an open structural steel type so no cupboard.

Kitchen is brand new so hoping not to rejig it by too much.

Wondering if there's a way to knock conservatory down, extend out to square the back of the house off, incorporating small wet room with high level windows to allow light through but keeping privacy.

Only thing is this means the view from the house out onto the garden is lost and the back door would no longer be directly out the back but onto the side

Not sure why my photos aren't posting sorry, but basically turn that area where your back door is into a bathroom and put the back door opposite the fridge/freezer?

You could put the external door where the window and sink currently are and have a utility and wc or wet room in the extended area.

Do you have a drawing of your site plan. Eg where your outdoor space/boundaries are? Any dimensions for the space? I'd be tempted to run it beside the kitchen out from the backdoor, but it depends if you have any drains there, etc.

Where are your existing soil pipes?

There's no conservatory on your plan?

The red square is roughly where the drain cover is and the red blob is the soil stack

@wowfudge I've marked in green what is currently the conservatory (tiny lean to)
Il try and do a photo

In blue shoes where the water pipes currently go.
The mains entry point to the house is on the rear of the house under the kitchen window where the sink is

I'm now with you. Unless you square off the back I can't see how you can do it. Is it an old or a modern house?

Having to walk through the dining room to go upstairs suggests there was once a hall straight through from the front door and the stairs would have been enclosed.

I’m not sure £15k is realistic TBH

I'd build one of those extensions over your conservatory area and to level off the back of the house with a rooflight. This would light the dining room. I'd remove the window between kitchen and dining room and replace with (wider) folding doors to allow more light through. The current door between kitchen and dining room I'd remove and pop your kitchen units removed from the folding doors space in there. Then I'd put a back door to your new larger kitchen /conservatory space on the centre of the new back wall (adjacent to the existing sink area, other side of existing wall). You can opt to keep the old wall if you need to structurally. Then in the top right hand corner, adjacent to the new back door I'd site your loo/wet room. Sorry no time to do diagrams!

Trying to upload photo but it won't let me saying I've already done the 6 I'm allowed in one day so il have to post up again tomorrow

@wowfudge it's a 1900's typical Victorian end of terrace

@Battleax that is my concern. I could stretch to £20k but worried that won't leave a lot for error

Put it where the conservatory is and use a light tunnel / tube to keep light for the dining room.

If you have not seen one they look a bit like a chimney or dryer outlet but the inside is reflective, you have a glass 'window' at each end.
