What about a sliding panel with the picture mounted on it that hides the tv?

Hi Charles, Firstly, I am not a designer or anything but I have just spent over 12 months planning & designing my house so I've looked at heaps of plans & I've done lots of research. This is what I have come up with.. I think you can leave it with the same layout and just extend the wall off the rumpus. Yes it eats in to you bi-fold doors but I have a plan to counteract that & not sacrifice the light & open plan. Using corner stacker doors (much cheaper than bi-fold) will open this space right up to the alfresco area. Not sure what you had planned for this area but if you were planning on having a built in bbq area it could be done on the back of the rumpus room wall (in the space where I extended the wall). I also think you will have more flexibility if you have doors entering the rumpus rather than sliding doors as you can use the wall space without having to worry about the wall cavity. I printed your plan off & had a play so check it out & see what you think. I will not be offended however if you don't like my ideas as its your house & it needs to suit you & your family. All the best with it, I know how hard & stressful it is! Shae

Here is the rest of the floorplan oklouise. The built-in in Bed 2 is 600mm and in Bed 3 is 550mm, and this space is in addition to the measurements on the plan. Walls could be moved about, but we need to be able to live-in during renovations. Also the slightly wider section of hallway adjacent to Bed 3 acts as the main entrance so it really needs to remain at its current width to be practical. The 'study' is more of a study-nook in an extension of the hallway leading to a detached garage and workshop, so that is why there is a external door. Thanks for any ideas you can offer.

the other thought i had was to swop the bedroom with the wiw and ens so that the entry to the bedroom is from the hallway and the ens and wiw are facing the rear..some variation of this idea would allow a north aspect for the bedroom and bigger wiw and ens and the "bump" from the hallway adds a little more space for the entry and adds to the interest for the long hallway but is not essential
