Hello
I am considering purchasing a small Victorian terraced house built approx 1900. The main house is two storey but there is a room out the back which is single storey. I am pretty sure that the single storey room is part of the original construction as it matches the neighbouring houses in geometry and the shape of the house on old OS maps suggest the single storey part was there.
If I were to purchase the property I would like to add a second storey so there is an extra room upstairs. What is the likelihood I could do this, I am particularly concerned about the foundations? I have a second viewing later in the week, does anyone have any ideas about things I could try and check?
Thanks!
