What is the most expensive part of a house to renovate?
Structural work and kitchens usually cost the most, with bathrooms close behind. Anything that moves walls, drainage or the roof carries the biggest bills. Keeping the existing layout is often the single biggest saving available.
What turns a garage into a proper room?
The floor, the walls and the ventilation have to be brought up to living standards. The garage door is generally replaced by a wall and a window. It will normally need building control approval.
Garage conversions into a bedroom, office or gym are NStar Builds work. Some newer estates carry conditions keeping garages as parking, so check first. Existing garage footings are not always good enough to carry new masonry.
Is it cheaper to extend or move?
Extending is usually cheaper, because stamp duty, agents and removal costs add no space to anything. Whether it is right depends on what the plot allows. The plot, the neighbours and any conservation area set the limits.
Why do Victorian terraces suit side returns?
Behind most Victorian terraces sits an outrigger and a narrow strip of passage. That passage is rarely useful as outside space. Building over it turns a galley kitchen into a room wide enough to eat in.
The light is the thing to plan for: the roof sits against the boundary, so rooflights do the work windows cannot. Party wall notices are usual, since the wall is built at or near the boundary.
