Conservatory.
Primary question · Can a conservatory ever be comfortable year-round?
Glazed walls and roof create enormous solar gain in summer and equally enormous heat loss in winter. Often unusable for half the year; but it doesn't have to be.
The five questions
Is this right for me?

What will it cost?
Single-room upgrades typically £200–£3,500 depending on what's actually wrong.
Advantages
- Unusable in mid-summer
- Unusable in mid-winter
Trade-offs
- One-room upgrades rarely fix whole-house problems
