Looking to 'square' the back of the house off by extending the other side. Rough dimensions are 9 meters squared. Want to bring the kitchen back into the body of the house and have this extended area as a living area with a large window/windows onto the garden. Inspired by the 'wall of light' concepts from TV shows (thanks grand designs). To reduce cost was thinking of a large central window of amount 3 meters with French doors either side. Anyone done anything like this before? Any advice on costs? Cheers Quad

Its 115 sq meters, we are going to convert the garage which should get us to about 135 sq meters. We'll likely extend but probably not for at least 5 years. What type of costs are we looking at (in todays money) for a 2 storey extension Lets say we want to extension to be 80 sq meters leave furnishings etc out for the moment Design, build, electrics, plumbing, windows/doors, ballpark figure?

I usually say €1200-€1500 per square meter in Dublin depending on finish but I seen prices today for a friends ground floor extension and first floor extension over an existing ground floor extension coming in at €1000 per Sq. M with a decent spec finish, sanitary ware included, bathroom tiles, led spots, 100mm insulated board throughout.
