any ideas for stairs to loft in limited space

Hi just wondered if anyone had any ideas

have a 3 bed semi, 2 beds to front 1 bed and bathroom to rear

trying to get quotes for loft conversion, but can't work out how I will manage to get a permanent solution to stairs to go up to it.

I have no space on the landing and don't know of any solutions other than taking the stair case out of front small bedroom and turning that into a office, but the real reason for the loft conversion is to gain extra bedrooms not just gain a bigger one than we have.

I have 2 children and my partner has 2 children that come to visit every other weekend and at present they sleep on blow up beds in front room which is not ideal for anyone.

any ideas welcomed

    have to put a staircase in an existing bedroom, its the only option really.
    which bedroom is up to you.
    you could put it in the smallest? consider making it a staircase only and knocking the rest through into an existing bedroom to make that bigger???

    hard to say without a layout plan of what you have at present.

    looked at these, but they are pretty ugly and I would still have to come out of the bedroom, thought maybe I was missing a point and could have the stairs somehow leading on from existing stairs - can see why I am not a builder :D:D:D
