In the fantasy land where we bought it, the idea was to remove the wall between kitchen and entrance hall and make that into a single space, fully glaze the existing front door and panelling, move the front door down to the garage entrance, and a load of other stuff.

We were obsessed with trying to buy this place for a while, to the complete despair of our parents. Unfortunately, it wasn't really for sale. The vendor had it on with eight estate agents over 6 months, and every time we tried to arrange a viewing it got canceled the day before. They claimed to get covid about a dozen times. I don't know what was going on - possibly a divorce? It got withdrawn from the market in the end.
