When Mike left the flat in 2010 he asked Neville to look after it.
A few months later, the set was reused as Ricky's dad's flat. (Not intended to be the same setting). After that story ended, there was no mention or it again. Tl;dr I have no idea what happened to the set! Same as the O'Connor flat that got flooded and never mentioned again... The Lomax extension which involved getting rid of the downstairs bedroom and doubling the living room (that never got mentioned on screen) happened after they moved into the house. |

I never noticed the Lomax house getting bigger.

Houses/flats have always been somewhat of an issue in HO. With the Lomax flat, it was fine they removed that downstairs bedroom and turned it into an open plan dining room, made it feel much bigger, but then a few months later the living room suddenly got bigger and the kitchen all changed with no explanation at all, and the area has never even been used.
Also there is a severe lack of actual houses, we only have the McQueen house and the Roscoe house, everyone else lives in flats, which I know happens a lot, but a few more houses would be nice to see, maybe have a chance to open up a new area of HO with a few small houses, Amy Barnes and family could have one, as I couldn't imagine a growing family wanting to live in a little flat like they are in. The Lovedays could also move into a house, then Cindy and Dirk could move into the Loveday flat. |

Is James and Marnies home not the old O'connors? Sure I saw someone say it was. |

HO lacks links to the past which in part is probably actor turn over to blame and in part random changes to sets. I still don't like the new Dog In The Pond and it looks nowhere near the size of the old pub which had so many iconic HO scenes.

They're living next to Amy and Ryan, but we haven't seen the interior to their place yet. |

It's not the same flat and it's not in the same location, but I'm not sure if it's the old set recycled.
