    we'd be happy extending out rather than up, as we have loads of land, but it wouldn't be practical, as we're on a steep hill, and so would have to excavate quite a bit first, which is also pretty pricey ...

    I'm thinking the kids can just cope with having small bedrooms, or sharing the big one, unless and until we move!

    WOW
    I have been dreaming about extended out: first stage putting three new bedrooms on and a new loo, on totally flat ground. I was hoping we could do that for under 60K.

    Then we want to extend out another side a fit a brand new laundry and upgrade the kitchen (keeping some of the fittings and getting new bench & appliances). We need all new windows (seven in total), would like french doors x 2 sets and a new deck out the back. I was thinking 150K tops... Now I am not so sure...

    Guess I should get the drawings done and start getting quotes, then I will know for sure I guess.
