It looks like it’s going to be a great space when it’s done, but your numbers are making me scared about my plans for our purchase-in-progress.

Yeah - it's a lot but with the idea of this thread providing tangible info for others thought I would do it and risk multiple golf club entries. It's more than we want to spend and more than I believe is advisable so need to get it down to close to original budget but if we live here for 7-10 years then it seems a worthwhile investment to get it how we want and future proof it a bit (currently just 2 of us). I think we might have a small phase 2 which could include bootroom, and work on the living room if necessary which might help us save a bit more.

Here are the plans - we've not got to the full plans for planning but that is the next stage. Also no itemised costs but a high level view. The outlined costs for this work, they have estimated to be £280-320k all in which is 30% over what we had given as our budget. I know they've specced a ton of bespoke cabinetry etc which won't be cheap, so think there is a good amount of room to sharpen the pencil on this.
