Agreed, it could do with a pedestrian gate on the same end of the wall as the front door.
The downstairs toilet in the living room is a bit odd! I would have had the entrance be from the dining room.
I can see knocking the kitchen and dining room together, then you could take the washing machine out of the porch (and build a nice stone porch with a front door facing the street instead of that PVC monstrosity with the front door at the back!) and install a modern kitchen. That would make the downstairs ideal for me. Upstairs is a little small and building an extension above the living room to add a third bedroom seems a bit daunting.
It's probably a house for a few years from now when I've fully accepted being on my own, rather than now where I'm still thinking about future-proofing.
However, did you look at the satellite pictures of the garden? It's phenomenal! Not sure I could face trimming all those hedges and cutting all that grass though

Formerly self-contained, but expanding my gardening horizons beyond pots!
