For and against
For
- Living room and kitchen 4.48 m wide and bedrooms 2.5 m clear: it meets the RGEU areas and inscribed-circle rules.

- Living area to the south, bedrooms and wet rooms to the north; no corridors.
Against
- Two shared walls removed: more beam, more columns and two roof joints.
- It is 1.8 m² short of a T3: a third bedroom needs a fourth container.
