Thanks ProDave and nod. That is what I thought. Yes- lots of mess and of course cost but having a more usable and flexible space I think would be worth it.
We are thinking of buying a house but as you can see from the picture an extended bedroom has basically been cut in two because of existing structural beams. Is it possible to cut the width of these supports/ walls in order to unify the room as well as bringing more light to the back area of the room? It would make the room more attractive and usable. Would it be massively expensive?

Yes not even going to begin to attempt this on my own but don't want to sound like a numpty when talking to potential builders as some are less than scrupulous round our way, and I want to make sure I have a little knowledge in advance, so I can ask the right questions. Thanks so much!
Hi, we are not using the chimney- we have a lovely 9riginal fireplace still but just ornamental. We are getting ready for sale and I know cracks can look scary to new buyers. Because of renovations we have done the loft is now super accessible and light for any surveyor so they will definitely see it!
I really want to know how concerning this is and how we should make sure it is secure.. It is an old Edwardian house. The mortar is crumbling but not sure if merely replacing it is enough. It is about a metre and a half long.
