House remodel - bedroom sizes

[Lost77]

Currently about to start renovating.

In a dilemma

House is 4 bed, 2 good sized bedrooms, 1 small double bedroom and 1 small single bedroom.

Stairs currently in living room, we have the option to relocate them into the entrance hall so the living room can be closed off. By doing this we'd lose space in the entrance hall - at the moment it's more like a room but would become a standard entrance with stairs and room for a sideboard and coat/shoe tidy.
Upstairs it would eat into the small single room losing this as a bedroom but one of the larger rooms could be split in 2 to make 2 x small rooms, 1 x single approx 2.5 x 2m and the other just about a double approx 2.9 x 3.6m

It would basically leave us with only 1 decent sized bedroom and the other 3 all relatively small.
The existing small single bedroom that is losing space for the new stairs could be turned into a small walk in wardrobe.

Downstairs space is very good

2 young children, no plans for anymore.

WWYD? It's going down to the small rooms that worries me... can't decide so mumsnetters, thoughts please?!

What do you have downstairs? We have a large master bedroom and 3 smallish bedrooms but several reception rooms. We don't allow friends in bedrooms so everyone uses the downstairs space and bedrooms are just for relaxing/ sleeping. Are you able to do that? If so small bedrooms are fine.

Why do you need 4 bedrooms? Could you not have 3? Why a wardrobe and not an office space?

Do you have a layout?

downstairs we have 2 x main reception rooms Kids have never had sleepovers as it stands but when friends come they are always downstairs not in bedrooms anyway
a kitchen diner
further reception room which we use as an office but it is large so office could be relocated at some point& would provide a 3rd reception room
we have downstairs bathroom and utility
& we have an outhouse which could be converted at some point into a live in annex or games room / teenage space as the kids get older,
so yes we have good downstairs space

Good to hear on this basis you wouldn’t worry about small bedrooms upstairs

ourselves and 2 kids provides 3 bedrooms and then a 4th guest room, we have family that live away that come and stay at least a few times a year

We have a good separate office space downstairs, it would be too small for our needs too as both myself and husband run businesses from home and need space other than just a desk and a laptop.

Walk in wardrobe would be very handy as lacking in wardrobe space upstairs.

We don't have our spare room upstairs either so when family or friends come to stay they are quite separate. We find that works really well. Id put them in your outbuilding until your kids are teens, by which time you might want a nice space for them that you can't hear!

So you are thinking of making your entrance room smaller, losing a bedroom and making the other bedrooms smaller, just to move stairs out of living room? I would do that tbh.

Is there any other way of closing off the stairs? Can we see a floor plan?
