What would you do with this floorplan?

[Floorplan101]

I've just moved house and looking for ideas on what people would do with the current rooms/future works. At the moment, our current plans are to take the lower cabinets out in the "utility room" (opposite the window side) as currently having low units on each side is very narrow. There is a sloping roof on the extension with the kitchen, so can only have low cabinets really in there - so we probably need to use the understair space as more of a pantry area.

We have varying ideas between Dh and I of knocking down walls and merging rooms, or simply leaving it as is and decorating.

Wwyd ?

I like the look of your layout, I think when you first move in, you want to change it, but I now love the fact that we have a pantry or larder.

Our kitchen is very workable, saucepans, everyday crockery hanging on walls, and all matches and looks good. All the stuff that isn’t pretty but we use, goes in a cupboard!!

Good luck xx

I'd swap the utility and shower room so you have a loo straight off the hall.

Then take out wall between kitchen and sun room. The door to the utility might work better on the opposite side (perhaps sliding) to create a bigger run of units.

At the far end of the sun room I'd have a compact little sofa (green) and make the dining room much more part of the same space with decorating but perhaps keep the doors so you have the option to close it off

OK so looking into this, it is probably most sensible just to live with it as is, and just modernise and redecorate the rooms. If anyone has any ideas which are on the lower end of the cost side but would make a difference do share :-)
