Mr Lou P and I have seen a barn conversion we'd be interested in buying… Its marketed as a 4 bed, and is on the corner of a row of Mews within the curtilage of a Grade II listed Hall.
The big sticking point we have is the size of the bedrooms – the master+en-suite and second bedroom are good sizes, but the third is 10'5'' x 5'11'' and the fourth is 10'5'' x 6'3'' according to the estate agent measurements.
The rest of the house has good sized rooms – sitting 17'x11', dining 11'x10' and kitchen 10'x11'.
We were thinking that it would be possible to knock through bedroom three and four (they are next to each other) to make it a 10'5''x12'ish third bedroom. So the question is – is a large third bedroom in a 3 bed house more attractive than a 4 bed with two very small bedrooms, or less? How much would converting from a 4 bed to a 3 bed house impact on the price?
Thanks for your thoughts… 🙂
