We have reasonable size square kitchen, a smaller (currently) playroom adjacent, and a long (waste of space) corridor next to them.
We want to knock down the corridor and adjoining walls to create a big kitchen/ breakfast room, and put double doors from breakfast room into the garden (which is currently accessed through side door out of utility room (ugly!) ).
If you've ever done this sort of thing, can you tell me :
- what you wished you had/ hadn't done
- what ideas your builder/ architect came up with which were fab
- any other thoughts about things we need to be aware of/ consider/ plan
It seems like a huge project, and I really want to get it right. When we had a loft conversion a few years ago there were definitely things afterwards which I wished we'd thought about!
