Yeah that’s useful food for thought - hard one innit. Much easier when it was just the two of us and no kids!!

Also, you’re in the honeymoon period when new borns are chilled, see how much appetite you have for anything in 6 months time.

how does that work? aren't the screws on the hinge itself still going to bite the same cheese?
-

Don't need any at the moment but that's brilliant

Yes but hopefully far enough away from the damage to present a clean fixing point, and if your careful with the assembly etc. it should be good I think

Wondering if anyone can offer advice on a plumbing/heating question, please. We currently have a central heating boiler and a separate hot water boiler, both in our bathroom (came with the house). They are on opposite sides of the room, one in a cupboard. Does anyone know if they can both be put in the cupboard? Google just gives me answers about boilers and water tanks in a cupboard together.

your probably likely to get a hot water cylinder fitted but obviously depends of size of said cupboard

The value aspect is something that continues to pop up in our reno. First, it was the decision not to do the side return and now it's whether or not to do a loft conversion. It's been an enlightening experience really questioning what we do and don't need. I know our lifestyle and budgets are very different but I would sit down with your wife and look at whether your original design is necessary. You may find that with some small edits you can still create something magnificent or it may simply confirm your original plan. £300k is a lot of value that needs to be clawed back if this is not going to be your forever home.

Quite an interesting use of downstairs space/layout here. Not sure if kitchen seems like too much of a private space to have at the front like that, though.

Great link, have been watching that get done over the back of our place. They rebuilt the whole back and I had assumed the side extension with skylight was for the kitchen.

Yeah I’m a big fan of reversing terrace houses,it wouldn’t have worked with ours but that one makes sense, although design and finish is very suspect.
-
• #2167
Yeah - that all makes really good sense. Because we’re not extending and so adding sqft I think that makes the value part more pressured. That said there is clearly a premium for nicely finished houses as shown by TMH. We will have a convo with EC in the new year and get a handle on what we can/can’t do.

you say design and finish is very suspect, i assumed it is about the extreme farrow&ball styling... maybe not

Ahhhhh yeah sorry, yes, prettty much it. Some rooms, with some stuff in, no real holistic concept and very disjointed. Spots, switches and plugs look like an explosion in the loft too.

But I’m sure it’ll be a nice place to live in.

It looks tidy but it's Victorian Renovation Starter Pack stuff.
I can see why you might fit fifty gazzillion down lights in the loft; the ceiling height aint great so no feature pendants or whatever, but why the fit them everywhere else....gahh
Be careful where they sit the exhaust for it, especially if near a spendy bit of self cleaning glass.
