Turning this 3 bedroom to 4 bedroom. Is it possible?

[Smith E]

I am due to purchase a property of 3 bedrooms but my family requires 4 ideally. I am wondering if anyone would be able to brainstorm with me? Thank you in advance. Please see plan.

Possible if you don't need the lounge or the dining room.

Impossible to say without any dimensions. Might manage another tiny bedroom at the expense of making either of the sensible bedrooms smaller/tiny.

Absolutely possible. Who needs a dining room? Our house is the same. I have built a removable wall across the top end of our dining room which blocks it off from the rest of the house leaving a corridor from the "stupid" sized hall to the kitchen. I don't need four bedrooms unless all my grandkids come to stay at once but a fourth bedroom would add a good few thousand to the value of my house. I've told my daughters to convert our dining room to a permanent fourth bedroom when we peg it and they inherit because they will be selling it. It does look like you have a bit more work in removing a door and reinstating the kitchen entrance and perhaps bringing the removed dining room wall further out but nothing too major I wouldn't think.

Live with it as is, save up and knock that lean to down and put single storey extension straight across the back.

If you diy it you could do it for a reasonable price

Loft conversion, can add value and won't make the house as "top heavy" compared to losing ground floor space - and you should try to squeeze a WC into the GF if you can. Common these days to go for 2 beds (as you often lose the box room for the stairs) and a bathroom.
