How much space do I need for a 300L unvented steel hot water cyclinder?

Grateful for any advice someone can offer - just before I get a plumber out to look and potentially waste their time. Basically I want to move (and change) my hot water cylinder and I'm wondering how much space is required. I have a space that is 600-650mm depth x 800mm wide that I would like to move it to. I can increase…

I have a space that is 600-650mm depth x 800mm wide that I would like to move it to. I can increase the width(>800mm) but not really the depth(stuck at 6-650mm). Full access will be available to the front.
My understanding is that the cylinders have a depth of 600, so hopefully that would be okay (with wardrobe doors on the space) but is the width of 800 sufficient to allow for all of the bits that would have to be connected to it? In terms of access - full access to the height at the front of the tank can be provided ( 2.2 height doors x 400mm width each)
Many thanks
