UK Ceiling lights help ?

[SUNNYD]

Hi everyone I'm new to this forum, I was looking at a flat the other day which is beautiful, apart from these lights in the kitchen? , and for such a modern flat I don't understand why they were put in in the first place and also why they are not centred and why is there a lonesome pendant light to the right of them in a really ridiculous position? Is this going to be a really expensive job to deal with to either have them moved, or is there a cheaper way i.e.to run the power from the rose to mount a light elsewhere on the Ceiling i.e... a pendant light over a table for example, is it going to be really messy and what will be the state of the ceiling afterwards. I can just about change a light bulb ?..... could this be a DIY job with careful instruction, or will I need a qualified electrician and roughly how much would this cost? Hope that all makes sense. Thanks in advance.

Does your decision to buy this flat rest on the position of those lights?

No, not at all, just wanted advice on the best way to get them changed over

I think that if it is an MF ceiling with a void above it should be very easy to do what you say regarding moving that pendant you might want to consider installing downlights in replacement of those fluorescent fittings.
