  • Removing the fireplace makes the room easier to use I suppose but it’s a decent chunk of work.

    If it were me I’d removed the chimney breast and get someone to build a full wall of storage including a pull down bed and probably a fold out desk. Intervention did a nice job in a similar room in the Barbican

    This is roughly where I am with it at the moment. Do you have a link to the example? (edit, it's this, right?) I trawled Rightmove looking at other houses in the street but they all seemed to be putting up with the existing layout resulting in a nice room looking cluttered and annoying to be in.

  • Built-in wall could also go on the other wall, I'd imagine it's easier to relocate a radiator than removing the chimney?
