When we bought our house in 2016, I closed off an opening between the kitchen and the hall.
Now we're planning to open it up again in connection with a major renovation of the kitchen and hall.
I need to remove 2 studs to be able to move the opening.
1 of these studs goes from the sill up to a beam located under the rafters.
1 stud goes from an existing “header” above the current opening up to the beam.
1 of these studs also supports 1 ceiling joist for the kitchen and 1 for the hall.
How should I proceed to get the opening I want?
How would you approach this?
As it is cut out in the drywall, the opening is intended to be about that size.
Attached are the drawing and pictures.
