Broadly in agreement with chappers on this, although I would probably put the en suite at the back because of the hassle of installing the soil pipe to the toilet. Also I would block up the kitchen door and fit a window, install a new worktop under the new window (although it would have to be a 400mm wide worktop using wall cupboards as base units).
And French doors in the dining room.





Sorry about the shabby plan, I’ve only got Microsoft paint.
Hope I’m not infringing on any copyrights.:p

Don't give up the day job, will you?! :rotfl:

Your galley kitchen now has a space of 1'11" in which to manouvre. Unless you installed skinny kitchen units, you'd be unable to completely open a regular 60cm door. Lord knows where you put yourself!

You've also spent a small fortune turning a three double bedded, two bath house into a one double, two single, two bath house The way you've moved the staircase appears to impinge upon some kind of structural element in the loft.

That house was never three double bedrooms the original floor area of the loft room was not the practical usable space due to the pitch of the roof.
Don't see any structural or practical reason for not putting the stairs as trogg as shown except I would take the all the way across to the party wall and turn them to the left at the top.Build a full dormer leaving a large double bedroom to the rear and a decent en-suite/dressing room on the other side of the stairs, to the front. A single story extension is the answer to the kitchen but it does leave the dinning room a bit dark, got round this by putting two rows of glass blocks between the dinning and kitchen with roof lights in the kitchen roof.
