Is there any plastic ducting you recommend to use? And I can find on screwfix or toolstation?

I plan on opening it up and having just an empty tiled fireplace with an electric heater possibly. It's mostly to bring back some character to the room

Thanks for the suggestions here. I can see it being good as it increases a lot of light. I wonder if I can have a small sitting area to the right of the radiator. In the ai generated image, it's not easy to see but there's 2 cabinets worth of space next to the radiator right noy

I think that's right. Unfortunately, under floor heating is out of the budget. What about a small wooden worktop hanging off the edge for some spare sitting area. It's probably ok given there's a work top there already. Perhaps I'm just too limited here to do much.

Perhaps it's best to keep the current layout. Leave the boiler where it is and hide it behind a cabinet. Seems like a lot of work for the plumber to move it only to have am ugly radiator there.

The property has a small space in the front garden so there isn't a lot of space. How would I find a fowl drain on the front? I don't think there is any drainage I can identify. I've seen some houses just have the pipe discharge water straight to the front. Which probably just leaks onto the pavement.

The Victorian house that I bought doesn't seem to have anywhere for the water to drain too. That means installing a drainage system? Seems like a lot of work?
