We also want to replace old brick/tile roof to a more modern/flat roofline or camoflage it somehow.
Option One - is to create a void in the top floor of the house and relocate bedrooms to a new "wing" extending the footprint of the house. Keep existing roof and update eves.
Option Two - is to gut the entire top floor of house, remove roof and extend walls up 2 metres and then reinstall flooring with a 3 mtr roof height downstairs living, 2.7 mtr upstairs bedroom.
Hope this makes sense.
Am I crazy? I am wondering if anyone has considered anything similar and if there is a significant cost differential?
Thanks so much in advance.
