Well we have decided to remove the conservatory on our house to make way for a snug child friendly family room where I can have all my AV gear and we can keep our lounge kid free. As with all conservatories, it's warm in summer but unusable in winter, so its a waste of space. My daughter is only 8 weeks old and now was the prefect time to get this sorted before she starts crawling/toddling. This is the final stage of work in our house after fully redecorating, replacing 2 bathrooms and a downstairs toilet, removing the wall between the dining room and kitchen, putting in a new kitchen and utility with access to the rear garden. We have been in the house for 8 years, but have had money tied up in investment which has only come to fuition. I have also been fitting each room we have done with a much tech as necessary so I dont have to revisit in the future.
Ok here is the architect plans. As you can see the aim is to create a door from the back of the kitchen/diner straight into the snug. We have added double french doors to the back of the kitchen so we dont need any doors to the garden from the snug making more useable space. Dimensions of snug will be 4 metres x 5 metres. Looking to create a false fireplace with some trick ideas for hiding my av kit, so sticky little fingers cant get to them. Room has to be wife/child friendly and have some sneaky storage for the various toys she will collect over time. Inspiration coming from various sources including Homerdog, Elootos et others. Hopefully will get the pics posted on a daily basis. Wish me luck ;-)
First picture is original layout, second is proposed. All work completed so far except for the final extension/conservatory replacement.
