Kieran McCarthy: 'How much does it cost to swap two rooms in the house?'

Swapping rooms around is one way to make better use of daily sunlight, writes Kieran McCarthy

This dormer bungalow with panoramic views of the surrounding countryside is on the market at Swinefield, Cloonfad.

Hi Kieran,

My parents live in a poorly designed 1980s dormer bungalow in the Bishopstown/Waterfall area of Cork. The kitchen/dining room is north facing while the living room is south-facing and bathed in light. Would it be an easy job to swap these two rooms around and do you have any idea of the cost?
