So we have been working with a volume builder on the design, layout and options of our new place and you would think they would have the foresight of thought.... evidently not.
In early setout plans they decided to have no north facing windows in our kitchen, dining and family room and only a western wall made of glass.... it also gave us 2 disjointed side yards.... great thinking....not.
I dont know about you but living in an area that has effectively become a cave that would be dark until midday then facing the searing western afternoon sun isnt that appealing...AT ALL!
I really wish they thought things out better and applied some logic. It really was a face palm moment.
Our alternative is to put in a large horizontal window on the northern wall and shrink the house by 300mm and remove a non structural pilar of 600mm which will give us a 1m walkway behind the house and access to both side yards would be joined.
