Remortgage to moving... Options for my existing offer

In July I decided to get an offer to remortgage my current property for which the fix rate deal ends on 3rd Jan 2023, with Santander.
The rate I secured was 2.4% for a 5 year fixed for 150k, with Natwest. The mortgage is portable
We are now looking at a possibility of moving into a new build house which would complete in December and we are looking to part exchange our house. This would required an additional 150k of borrowing.
I am going to ring natwest tomorrow but I wondered what my options might be?
Option 1 : the current remortgage deal would just be null and void and I'd have to apply for a new offer
Option 2 : Natwest honour 150k at 2.4% but I need to borrow an additional 150k at a current rates
Option 3 : Natwest are very nice and would allow me to borrow the full 300k at the original rate of 2.4%
As this is a new property, I'm thinking option 1 is probably the most likely, but would appreciate any advice.
Thanks

I don't think option 2 will be likely at all.
Are you altering the loan to value by borrowing double? If so, then option 3 seems very unlikely. I think option 1 is likely, but definitely see what they say.
