  • I know its all a matter of personal taste and use case but I'm not a fan of these massive open living spaces. I like the idea of having a smallish living room that can be COSY in the winter months and then have a larger cooking/eating back room that opens into the garden for those hot summer days (both of them).

    All subjective of course, but if I bought the place you liked to there I would be doing the opposite of what you want to do...

  • yes, agreed. That's why we extended the kitchen and left the two reception rooms separate.

    Plus, when you have teenage kids, rooms with doors that can close are a bonus.
