Hehe ...... Thanks for that ....

Well, I just think its a timing thing. Did my first one back in the 90's and made a lot of money riding the market.. Did my last one in 2005 and have lost the lot on the market crash

But seeing as this one came out of the profit of the other I'm still up.. a bit...

Having done a two story extension on my house with a similar garage angle I would strongly recommend demolishing the garage and squaring it to the house

Steve m is right. Never understood the fascination of bedrooms, i got 3 but all is needed is an area of 7 x 5 ft max, i mean you are asleep right so not aware of anything.

Yeh and I am not allowed to store car bits in the unused space either.

I appreciate the advice and that was my first thought but the garage was built without planning by the previous owner a number of years ago and the bungalows on a bend it was thought rightly or wrongly that if we knocked it down we wouldn't be guaranteed planning would be approved to build another repositioned garage ..... The architect and roof truss people have assured me the roof will work and I think it'll look in keeping with the style of the houses around it .... The planning officers notes in the planning application seemed to favour the garage house link

Nice!

I fancy a house building project one day. There are jobs I can do, jobs I can learn to do and those that are best done by others.
