Once you have extended your home we can recommend using the following online stores to furnish the new room/s: 

John Lewis - This is my go-to shop when I want to buy anything household related or gifts. They have a great range of items which are usually high quality. They seem to be rather picky about which items they sell. This means selections which are condensed. Their pricing is very reasonable too for items which I would regard as above average. You my find something similar elsewhere for less, but with John Lewis you get piece of mind that you are buying well.

Fabulous Furniture - Excellent online furniture store which offers unique pieces not found elsewhere. Prices range from very cheap to "luxury". They sell most types of furniture such as dining room chairs and tables, plus extras such as wall art. They have some funky Italian high back chairs and Mactan stone pieces from the Philippines.
