We are fortunate that the back and front have niece views but will consider high light windows in bedroom 2 & 3, I just want to be careful as they will be facing west that the rooms don't become too hot. Yep glass in the front door is a good idea and the addition of skylights. To be honest we didn't really consider window sizing at the front as we spent more time considering bricks and render, we will reassess the window design. Thanks again Re: Master Plans 18May 11, 2020 6:23 pm Justin5118 Hi Bebbsy, Thank you for your reply and advice.
