Redesigning our house including kitchen, two bathrooms & laundry. Ideas?
Comments (53)Thanks Jayme, I get what you mean, it's just not really practical for our house & will make the renovation a lot more difficult & expensive if we start moving walls like the to gain an extra couple of feet. It's possibly a load bearing wall too. But that area which is currently our kitchen where we are thinking of putting the fire place isn't the main living area, it's basically the centre of our living area which is a long room from one end of the house to the other, so we were thinking having the fire there will warm the house better being that it will have the kitchen & dining table one side of it & the lounge the other side. I think we could it a couple of cozy arm chairs & a small coffee table or we could just put a love seat up against the section of wall opposite the fire?...See MoreWould bathroom be too big?
Comments (9)I'd like the space you have Jodes, especially the pantry (envious), but am a little concerned at having the media room easily accessed via "mud" room, and being adjacent to the main bedroom... all that "mud", and noise from teenagers??? My other concern is width of the passage - will furniture damage the walls in manoeuvering into bedrooms? I'd perhaps consider incorporating the laundry space and function into the second bathroom (houzz has lots of pics) and eliminating the "mud room". The extra space is preferable for a free-standing bath, but that said, it depends on family set-up. If the bath's for children go for something easily cleaned, if for yourself, maybe re-design the ensuite. All the best!...See MoreQuestion? Pro Bathroom designers vs renovator vs stylist vs architect

Comments (5)I know it would get more complicated and probably be more expensive , but basically you are trying to get too much in there IMO . Everything is a compromise , and in fact , even if you had say a garage with power and water on , and moved the laundry there , you are losing both an inside laundry and a bath , to get the luxury of an en-suite . Lose 2 things to gain 1 in my opinion , so unless your main focus is an ensuite at all costs , it doesn't make a lot of sense . Me , I'd either live with it as it is , or depending on rules , regulations , present construction ( brick , weatherboard , etc ) , boundaries , even whether raised or ground-level -- I'd look at adding on , even if its a step up from a lean to -- I know its a 90's sort of thing , but an ensuite attached from either Bed 1 or 2 would possibly make at least as much sense ....See MoreLinda F
