ᐅ Structural assessment for the removal of a wall

Hello everyone,

My wife and I are planning to buy an existing property soon, and I would like to get an initial assessment of whether an interior wall can be removed or not.

Specifically, it concerns the wall between the living room and the kitchen. I have already tried to find information online about the type of wall, and it seems to be made of lightweight aggregate concrete blocks.

To be clear, I am initially just looking for an estimate. A local structural engineer will definitely be hired if we decide to actually remove the wall.

I hope you can help me and wish you a pleasant rest of the weekend.

For the size of the room (kitchen / living area with a corner layout), I assume there is at least one load-bearing wall. What about the wall above? A structural engineer will definitely have input on that – my suggestion is a beam or something similar.

Hello and thank you in advance for your reply.
I have also attached the floor plan of the upper floor; perhaps this will help provide a clearer understanding.
