And then there's the implications when you sell your house. There may be CGT implications. And if you aren't going to move the office, YourCo will need to sell the office to the purchaser of your house and it will need to charge VAT.
There's also a small risk with business rates. If you own it personally there is still a risk but I think there's an increased chance of it being liable if it's owned by the business (just speculation on my part).
It all just gets really messy.

Booths for example claim they'd charge £5k to disassemble and move an office. Assuming the cost of buying one is ~ £21k, that means an assumed materials cost of £16k, and a potential saving of £3.2k of VAT alone if purchasing through the company. Obviously you'd need to get the numbers confirmed, but even if you treat it as an asset which can't be claimed against CT, that's still a mighty saving....
