Would appreciate thoughts on what I'm missing here.
Dead timber kitchen conservatory (as demonstrated by recent rain) needs replacing. Bog standard 4.6m wide terrace with outrigger. Original plan was to do the full side return job but increasingly I think we will move from this house in <5 years so the payback on cost & disruption doesn't really work.
Feels to me like a minor upgrade would be to slap a bigger conservatory on the back of the outrigger that would give us space for a bigger table at the end, per the diagram below. Should be much cheaper than messing around with steels and party wall agreements. Would need planning as there is no wall between the kitchen and the existing conservatory, it has a radiator and we are in a conservation area. Neighbours have built further into the garden than us (red line on the plan).
I can't find any precedents for this online in the usual places, so there must be a reason that it doesn't work.
