How would you re-arrange this first floor?
I just recently bought a house. This is the current floor plan. I had chatgpt generate it from a blurry photo I had of the floor plan from a few months back. So a couple things are a bit off but its generally correct.
To note the bathroom exterior wall is actually flush with the kitchen exterior wall.
Also the closet on the left side of the kitchen does not jut out into the living room, that entire wall is flush. The closet on the right side of the kitchen is not over the stair case like that is is a couple feet forward and the fridge sit on the left side of it
Im planning on doing a renovation of the first floor when we redo the kitchen and floors. House is from the 80s and has original everything.
What I dislike:
bathroom is very small, so our laundry is in the basement. I could go without a laundry on the first floor as there is space above our garage to add another room and turn the upstairs office into a laundry room.
None of the living/family rooms have a flat wall area for a tv. So our TV is currently in the corner of one of the rooms, which i am not a fan of.
The area in front of the sliding glass door in the kitchen is very small. Putting a table there is awkward and feels like it blocks the path to the bathroom/garage. The space is also awkwardly too big to not have something there. Id be open to moving the sliding glass door entirely.
My wife doesnt like open concept too much and honestly neither do I so id prefer if rooms still felt a bit separated. Id be okay combined like a dining room and kitchen
Curious to hear anyone's thoughts on how you would re-arrage this.
Im open to tear down walls and/or moving kitchen/bathroom, but stairs and fireplace would stay as is.
