  • @Sheppz ah okay makes sense. So the would be doors (original double doors out to the garden) aren't currently installed but could be easily put back in. So you'd need planning and to comply with building regs to do it properly and fully open the space?

  • How was the external temp when you visited? That space looks difficult/impossible to heat with it open to the back unless they have done a lot of insulation, underfloor requires pretty low levels of heat loss to work, is my understanding, so maybe the glass is very good, but there is a lot of it. I'd be looking to reinstate the doors personally.

    @damitamit guess they wanted a view out from the sink, but were too cheap to pony up for a new partition/window.

  • @Silly_Savage erm didn't really notice anything temperature wise to be honest. But now I think about it, that is a good point. Doors back would be one option or a full opening up like the neighbouring House. The dodgy door with the pipe would probably stay if the former, and the window which is there repairing.

    Estate agent hasn't send through the surveys so my offer isn't as high as it would have been. On the internal kitchen wall that needs a building control cert - the agent said 'it will have an RSJ otherwise it would have fallen down'. Without that paperwork, my offer will be retracted in short order
