Converting garage to living area and front door

last month
last modified: last month

Hi All,

We are looking to convert our garage to the new front entry and second living area/home office. The house is mid century modern with front yard as main yard, corner block. Wanting to do the reno for extra space and more separated front yard, ’back’ /main yard, easier to walk into house when parking in driveway etc.

Current plan is to extend hallway (purple), front door (orange ) where garage door is. Green is meter box so that costs too much to move. Yellow is sliding door to second living/ office. Garage is 5 x 4m.

i have some concerns about the existing hallway (blue) being too narrow (880mm) with a low ceiling, as it would be part of the main hallway. And just want to know other peoples thoughts on this reno plan.






.

Any ideas/comments on the reno plan would be helpful. Any ideas to make the front entry/fascade look good also would be great.

thankyou
