help with bungalow layout

[DWBungalow]

hi, I'm looking for some advice on our bungalow layout. I am looking to move the bathroom so its not central to the house....moving it to one of the corners of the house is what I am thinking. any thoughts on how to make this happen would be appreciated.

 

additionally, fitting a utility somewhere.

 

any insights/thoughts appreciated

I would leave bathrooms where they are, keeping living and bedrooms as separate areas. Moving a bathroom sound lots of work for little gain or loss of convenience. Then form a kitchen/diner, robbing some space for utility

Why do you want to move the bathroom to a corner, will need a corridor and take up window space on the front and rear aspects. Bathrooms are in the best place IMO, create a utility in the back of the garage.

thought around moving bathroom was mainly just more privacy rather than being central with every room around it. but maybe i just need to accept if its already in the best space.

Not a great layout to be honest. DM me if you want me to look at the layout.

Whilst it might clutter the house ,could you put an additional door in the back hall?

This would separate the bedroom area from living and give a little more privacy to the bathroom.

It already has garage one side and on suite the other so hard to improve on that.

Perhaps move door from front hall.

Do you use the garage? If yes is there scope to build something like this outside of the bungalow? I'd move bedroom 2 into the garage, widen hallway and put the bathroom in the middle. You can then move the ES into the old bathroom, make bedrooms 1 and 3 larger. Also look at repalcing conservatory with a proper structure. All depends on what you want to gain and how much you want to spend.

It looks very difficult to reconfigure.  Round here they often add an extra floor, remove most internal wall etc when doing a bungalow.  Have you looked around to see if there are other properties that would suit you?

Yes moving the bathroom to the corner will make it even worse of a layout. 
 

IMO you need to reconfigure it where the rooms aren’t awkwardly shaped and it flows.

The floor area is pretty good though.

 

questions to ask yourself, is the living area better at the back or front, which part is quieter and more attractive? Can you knock out that corridor wall and make your space open.

This is what I would want, money is no object obviously.
