Color of master bath cabinets and furniture in master bedroom
Comments (5)IMO, the cabs and furniture need to coordinate, but not necessarily match. For example, we have white perimeter cabinets in the kitchen with merlot colored hood & island. Kitchen is open to family room with 2 built-ins in a slightly off white color. Cubbies are just around the corner from kitchen and can be seen through the doorway--they are also slightly off white. There is enough distance between the whites that you don't notice they don't match--they just coordinate. Our master bedroom furniture has a mahogany finish with antiqued gold pulls, the master bath has espresso vanities with antique pewter pulls and you can see from one room into the other. Again, they are just far enough apart that you really don't notice the difference & they coordinate. Stained furniture can be coordinated with painted vanities/cabinets & vice versa. Unless you're planning something totally outlandish, I think you'll be just fine. Hope this helps!...See MoreReplacing pipes with PEX, with future remodel in mind
Comments (4)We had pex installed several years ago. If you have an idea of where you would like the water to wind up, be sure they coil it up and give you enough pipe to reach the new area. So say you will want the vanity on another wall, 8 feet away. Be sure the pipe they install will reach. Also, our crew was amazing. I got the name and number of the installer himself. He was a subcontractor, so if I need to move stuff, I can call him directly. I wish I would have gotten the info on the guy who did the drywall repair. His work was flawless....See MoreHis/her wall closets and tiny master bath OR bigger bath/ 7x6 closet
Comments (8)I would opt for bigger bath and one shared closet. Would overall be less cramped for space. If you do the closet with a wall closet system with various drawers and hangers there is more than ample space for you both. If not, then you have too many clothes. In my closet I have 3 drawers and a hanger above those in multiple areas, then I have hangers for long clothes, and we have corner shelving and shelves for storage on top. Lots of space. Shoe rack on the floor under the long clothes....See MoreLose 4th bedroom for a bigger master/master bath/closet?
Comments (7)Thanks for the feedback. I have spoken to a handful of agent friends who work in the area - there really is no consensus. Some are more old school and think number of bedrooms trumps all, while others are more in line with my thinking that my target buyer is the newlywed or newborn crowd. I could *technically* still list the house as four bedrooms as that basement bonus room has a closet and is adjacent to a bathroom. I also thought about just converting that into a master suite, but I think that adds a ton of livable space as a second living room for a relatively small house and 5 bedrooms would be overkill. The whole thing has raised another question - is having a large master with a big bathroom/closet going to be important to my target buyer? Sure, it would be nice, but there are two bathrooms upstairs right next to each other and I don’t see it being much of an inconvenience for a married couple....See Morepippiep
