Not sure what exactly i'm looking for here but i know there are some clever gits on here...
Basically I'm looking for (on the internet) plans that show the size/dimensions of each room in a house so that I can export that into software like cad/sketch up so then i can roughly make up each room (putting furniture etc in there) before doing it in real life.
Hope that makes sense.

So you can pick a house and it'll give you the position of the walls to download? Not sure of anything like that.

Infact, no that's what im after sorry.  to me.
somewhere on the net there has to be 'blueprints' for each and every house built which gives the dimensions of the room(s).
@DaveyLC - I'm not in the house yet.

So something like this:
but for specific houses - so you can search for your house and it'll have all that info.

That level of detail isn't held centrally anywhere, might get it when you buy one and they put it in the advert but there's no national database of house layouts. Best you can hope for is Land Registry search but that's for property boundaries for legal purposes, can't think of any legal basis under which to store room dimensions of residential properties.

Surely everyone has heard of the national database of house room dimensions...

if it's a fairly new one, email the builders for a copy of the brochure
mine is available online so if you know the model name of the house
it can then be put into sketchup like so

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

If its a new build or recently completed you could check the local Planning Portal as the documents would be on there.
