Anyone have any suggestions for my ground floor layout?

Have lots of time on my hands to play about with plans before we finalise for submission to planning.

The walls with diagonal shading are new walls. We are putting a 10.5’ square double storey extension at the front of the house to give us a fourth bedroom. However, this gives extra hallway space which we are struggling to make useful. The downstairs loo is existing but would be happy to relocate. Wondering if we are better off moving the stairs too since it’s in the middle of the house and ceiling height is higher than average. Architect has put a small cloaks cupboard in the new space but we would love to have a bigger boot room with a side entrance if possible (especially since the utility room is in the centre of the house).

@charlielimacharlie thank you - the help Ive had from you all has been invaluable

@homeschoolchaos - hahaha Id be wrong to ignore your advice given your name. You are right about them not wanting to play in a messy space. I'll be adding 'better tidying up' to the life skills I'll try to teach during lockdown!

@buzz - you're right, its a compromise. But this is all a game of priorities. Combined utility and bootroom with side access feels like the right way forward
