Hello everyone,
I hope this post fits here 🙂
We are currently in the process of buying a single-family house, but the space feels a bit tight.
My question is: what would you recommend to gain some extra square meters in the house?
In terms of space, either option would work for us, but my question is more about cost-effectiveness.
Is it worth spending a lot more money on an extension?
And just to clarify, unfortunately, we can’t afford a bigger house, as this one is a great bargain for us.
I hope you have experience and can help us out here.

- Two-story extension
- Or would raising the knee wall to at least 2m (6.5 feet) with a living room expansion (a heated conservatory 2 x 5m (6.5 x 16.5 feet) connected to the living room, which means the load-bearing wall here would also have to be removed) be sufficient?

I’m wondering what you gain on the ground floor with the extension. The sofa should already fit there now, and the dining table as well. I don’t see the extension as a real benefit the way it’s drawn. The shape is rather too long for a living room. It seems the issue is actually a lack of space in the kitchen area. Personally, I would prefer to enlarge the more active space. However, if the main focus is on the upper floor, then this should be included here.
Is an extension legally possible according to building regulations / planning permission?
