Knocking through the the two ground floor reception rooms is not a massive job; biggest part of that will be clearing up the mess and probably re-plastering most of it afterwards.
The one linked above looks like it has a back extension on the ground floor as well - add £30k for that. Add a fair bit for a new kitchen.
£50k ball park for loft extension including bathroom etc?
We did a side extension on the ground floor and knocked into rear reception room; ended up being £80k+ but could have saved a fair bit on the kitchen. Moving out would have been a good option had it been available.

Anyone know what sort of costs are involved in open-planning the ground floor of a property like this?
Ours is very similar to this and we’re keen to explore options for knocking through the ground floor and getting a new kitchen, plus a loft conversion with ensuite.
I guess I’m looking at £75k+ and months of disruption, stress and arguments? I’d even consider living with family on the other side of London for some of the work, if that would be better for everyone’s mental health.
