The finding runs against expectation: the common problem locally is underfurnishing a generous room rather than squeezing furniture into a small one. Greater Manchester's terraced and semi detached stock typically delivers two reception rooms, and the dominant alteration of removing the dividing wall creates long narrow through lounges that resist conventional layouts. We set out the wall runs required for standard seating arrangements, the two thirds proportion rule that stops a well sized room reading as unfinished, and the zoning approach that makes a seven metre room usable. We also flag rear alley access, frequently narrower than the front door, as the constraint that decides whether large single piece furniture can be delivered at all."}
