Hi there im just new to this site but it seems really helpfull, so i hope somebody can help me. I live in an old terrace house built about 1910. Between me and my gilfriend we have completely renovated most of the house and updated it all. We now want to do the loft out...increase insulation and board the floor. The current loft hatch is the original one and is about 2ft x 1ft...how small were people then?! It is situated right in the eaves of the loft making it nearly impossible to get into. It needs enlarging...would it be better do you think to enlarge the hatch where it is or create a new one more centrally in the loft for height in access. If we were to make a new one...it would have to be in the master bedroom..is this off putting to people when buying a house or do many houses have the hatch in the bedroom now?
Any advice would be great as its a sticking point and i really want to crack on up there...with all your help of course!!! Thanks
