    Change back door to a window

    Considering buying a house, but I will need to make the most out of the space in a small kitchen as there's not enough room for a washing machine. So i'm thinking of removing the back door to the garden, bricking it up halfway, then putting a new window in on that wall above the sink and washing machine. Leaving the plumbing in place. How much would that cost? I am also then considering changing a living room window into a single back door, to regain access to the back garden. How much would that cost? Thanks!
