Floorplan Ideas please and thank you!
Hi looking for some advise please, I'm wanting to do some worth within the current roof line. The wall between the dining room and kitchen has been removed. The laundry and 3rd bedroom are an old lean to with a low ceiling.
I'm wanting to renovate the kitchen make the lounge into a 3rd bedroom then open up the laundry and 3rd bedroom into a small open plan. I'm not looking at a huge budget but appreciate any help or ideas you can help/assist with. Not sure if this is possible I'm new to it all!
Or is there an option of making the 2nd bedroom smaller to give the 3rd bedroom and bathroom some more space? could make the master and 2nd bedroom 3.5 x 4 to to give 3rd bed and bathroom another half a meter each?
Alot of rambling I know, but if I extended the bathroom to take the entire 3rd bedroom and make it bathroom/laundry and then had the living as master bedroom and dining/kitchen/laundry becomes kitchen and open plan living would a 3.6 x 9.2m space be decent enough?
Thank you again any questions please let me know.
thank you

Comments (13)or even simpler actually, enclose the porch and move the toilet into that space, then just leave the laundry and shower where they are. If you don't mind a walk through the laundry bathroom? I think I'd also extend the decking out significantly so it wraps around the back of the laundry too. This is my favourite as it's actually a rather simple (and therefore inexpensive) reno. Just removing the wall around bed 3 and shifting the toilet and building the deck....See MoreRaising our cottage & building under: floor plan ideas please
Comments (14)moving the stair doesnt help the existing upstairs if your plan is to not change much. the living area would reduce from 3.5 to 2.5m width and would limit options unless you want to use this space as office/playroom. the existing door would have to be relocated to bed 1 and the green line is an existing beam which looks to be tight on the 12th stair down which is usually the minimum head height clearance....See MoreNeed alternate floorplan ideas please
Comments (9)I like the middle pic -- the lounge at the front feels right , while the dining and kitchen gets a good view and light , moreso from the rear sliding doors . Having said all of that , have you considered demolishing that ( presumably added on later ) laundry and rear toilet -- it looks like you have 'walled' in the doors so you don't see the 'mechanics' when sitting in the alfresco -- that would give you more options ? In fact , depending on why you want an alfresco , you could possibly almost have 1 dining area , with large opening doors and lots of light , maybe even part of it with a clear and/or skillion roof , giving most of the advantages of airiness but also protection , way easier access to a new 'indoors' toilet , maybe a direct-to-outside door on the new laundry ( depending on where you put it and how big a rear deck you have etc ) . It would give you a lot more options , feel roomier , possibly for a similar budget as your present plans . Just a thought ....See MoreIdeas for fixing floor plan please
Comments (22)hearing that you have already started making changes, ie turning the garage into living space, I think you mentioned a master suite, My suggestion has 3 bedrooms together with a Master including an Ensuite using the existing kitchen Plumbing plus a parents retreat, all rooms could having openings to decks etc Not knowing the family and how many children, ages etc, I suggest that they use the Powder room and bathroom below the split level which is just a few stairs ( we did this with our kids which was very successful), small children could use the ensuite WC during the night A bath could easily be added to your new garage work The master would have water glimpses plus morning sun In my experience kids love to be where the action and food is, the new kitchen family etc would take care of their needs Your new rooms in the garage could be used as guest/parent accommodation or just a rumpus room with bathroom and kitchenette...See More- last year
A habitable room by Australian construction code must be 2.4m. A living area or bedroom must be 2.4m or higher.

This plan uses the 3 rooms which includes the old laundry to form the kitchen, dining and family,
Without the extra dimensions for the laundry, bathroom and passageway it leaves a bit of guess work. So this is one possible layout. The kitchen would have the sink on the lower 2100 height wall which could have bi fold windows opening up to the Alfresco, or just a wide sliding window which would do the same,. It would also help to know the aspect, ie where is North
