Renovation Layout Change - Need Advice/Suggestions/Help!
Comments (6)I would remove the entire wall between kitchen and dining room only. I think if you remove the rumpus room wall, you are going to end up with a really long narrow space, which will be difficult to use. do you want a "separate room" (what about in the future-kids? play room,office, formal dining , etc? An alternative to completely opening up the rumpus room to the kitchen, would be to create openings on either side, and leave the wall in the middle section. 2 advantages-a solid space to place a piece of furniture, and create a zone, whilst still opening it up quite a bit. depending on what you intend to use the rumpus room area for- you might even consider moving that wall across, so it is centered between the windows-a bit more space on the kitchen side, and a cozy space on the rumpus room side - if its going to be a play room/office/small sitting area, it would end up being about 3.7*3.4, which is still a good size (just not enough for a dining room or pool table) And then completely remove the wall section that is between the living room and dining room Depending on whether you think heating/noise etc is a problem with it so open, you could add either a barn door, or double glass doors to the opening. DEFINITELY remove the arches- i would just square them straight of to the ceiling. and leave the openings..or add a barn door Paint all that brick white-you will be amazed how much lighter the house will be. consider a doorway from the garage into the kitchen-it must be a pain carting the shopping through the house. Also, your windows need some timber architraves on the inside. Have fun - its always so exciting starting a new reno (for me-into my tenth year on the one house-not so much anymore :/ )...See MoreLayout - What would you change?!
Comments (39)Thanks Siri.... having it drawn to scale certainly highlights the inefficiencies in my idea unless compromises/sacrifices are made. Your banquette dining might work in lieu of a normal dining table Siri? Either way, I think a walk in pantry in this house demonstrates that space will be a problem. But good for AJ to see that as they explore a range of options before potentially seeking out a pro :)...See Morecompare costs of keeping bathroom layout to changing position of showe
Comments (4)That’s good news and makes it much easier. Will be worth the additional cost to get the best layout. You’ll need to have a plumber out to give you a closer cost. But because the water and sewage is in place and easily accessible it shouldn’t be too shocking....See Moreplease help me change layout for kitchen/bathroom
Comments (4)Is this to be a rental for ever, or are you going to move into home at some stage? Doing any changes at all with a rental is not cost effective. If the kitchen and bathroom is clean and fresh with no working issues, this would be fine for a rental. You may not like the bathroom position, but if your rental price is correct for this market then potential tenants will not worry. Have a conversation with your local real estate agents, to get more informed about the demographic and what they expect....See MoreDr Retro House Calls
