    I’d use that cupboard/dead space behind the stairs. 
    Block up the door to the lounge and move it further back to get into the kitchen from the lounge and enter the lounge via the dining/front room. 
    Then use that space in the hall and storage cupboards to make a bathroom.

    Sink over toilet in the downstairs cupboard area, space saver due to no separate sink.
    Mortgage started 2020, aiming to clear 31/12/2029.

    Thanks all. I liked suggestions to use hall and cupboards to put bathroom. Where should be entrance to the bathroom.? From kitchen ? I will discuss it with builders.

    Thanks , you are right.  It might be not good idea to have loo in the conservatory.  My requirement to have loo at downstairs but I did not want to loose storage space also.

    That row of various storage cupboards behind the stairs.  Convert that lot.  You will get a room about 1 metre deep, but quite long, so sliding door in the middle to get in, WC to one side, shower to the other side and small wash hand basin straight in front of the door.

    Very little cost no expensive extension needed.
    This is exactly where it should go, it's virtually underneath your existing bathroom so the pipework won't have far to travel.
