So we've a (1st world) dilemma. 2 kids and 2 adults in a 4 bed house (3 big beds a boxroom which is also a permanent office for WFH husband) but it feels like we're outgrowing the space.
We LOVE the location, proximity to schools, local friends and neighbours etc and for other reasons would really rather not move if we can help it. The only option we have is a side extension, which could give us a cloakroom/WC, utility, snug and lower ground floor office, which would free up the much needed 4th bedroom and get a lot of stuff out of other rooms. BUT the maximum internal width would be 1.7m. I think this would be fine for the utility and for the cloakroom/WC but would it feel too pokey for a snug? It would have a sloping ceiling and skylight too...Im thinking of a comfy chair/sofa bed (a double would fit it mainly used as a sofa), some plants, possibly a flat screen TV and guitars mounted on the wall. Is this a ridiculous idea?!
If anyone has managed to make a decent room of a similar width I'd love to hear from you/see pics! Or if anyone has seen/done similar and would advise against it, I'd also love to hear from you! We don't want to spend a fortune to feel like we've an extra cupboard (as handy as that would be 😂).
