Tub/shower combo or tub and shower stall
Comments (15)I know I probably went overboard, but I have been searching Houzz for shower/tub combos for myself if I decide to go in that direction. Most of these pictures have Master Bath titles - they tend to be small houses or apartments in large cities where space is an issue. They all have a generous sized tub. A few have extra shower bling and even a separate tub filler. All of them have material choices and the level of tile work that you see in a master bathroom. I'm sure that if I searched Houzz I could find just as many, or even more, remodels of small master baths where they have just built a walk in shower. I think the decision to do a shower/tub may be a personal choice because they want a soaking tub - since they are titled Master I'm assuming the bath is not the only bath in the house and they could easily just go with a shower.

Comments (24)Sounds like the second floor plan drives the first floor plan--which seems backward to me. i agree the bathroom setup is space-inefficient. Some people looooove lots of space in a bathroom. I consider them utility rooms--they are for very specific purposes, and I don't wish to spend any more time in the bathroom than necessary. So less space on that and more space elsewhere, in my opinion,. Aside from the pertinent quibbles others have expressed regarding the bathroom, I don't see why the master closet has to be so accessible from the bedroom. It would drive me crazy to have to walk through half that huge bathroom just to get to my shoes....See MoreJack and Jill Bathroom
Comments (37)I'm not against a well-designed J&J bathroom, but most of the ones we see here are an overly-complex mess -- and this one, with its three doors is no exception. I'm sorry but that is overkill 2 1/2 baths in a 3 bedroom house is plenty! Agree -- unless your hobby is cleaning toilets. What about giving each their own toilet and sink opposite each other in a long closet like WC at each end of this large room, with tub/shower combo between them? Without seeing a floor plan, this sounds like a much better-designed J&J. Everyone prefers a small private bathroom over a shared one. Disagree: - "Small" is not a very exact term -- minimal /barely meets code isn't comfortable, even for a small person like me, and it often means no storage. On the other hand, moderate-in-size is a great option. - The person paying the builder's fee might very well prefer one bathroom over two. - The person cleaning the bathrooms might very well prefer one bathroom over two. - We don't know who's going to be using this bathroom. If these are for college students who are away much of the time, the parents might not want to provide a private bath for kids who are away most of the time. Three doors is a waste of important storage space. Agree, and no one ever says, "I wish I didn't have so many nice closets." I wouldn't concern myself with whether the GC will be annoyed if you make this change. No, but I would care if he added to my bill, so make your changes now. The longer you wait, the more you'll pay....See MoreJack and Jill Bath Advice
Comments (7)Hi. If you do have more than one kid one day, you’ll be happy they each have their own sink space and you’ll want a tub. You might want to print out a couple of pieces of graph paper ( maybe making each square one foot). Draw the space on the graph paper. Get some tub, door, vanity (etc)measurements and draw them on the separate paper…. Then slide them around. We drew a lot of these trying to figure out bathrooms. Maybe the closet gets shifted or turns into a reach in closet. We went as far as drawing rooms out in chalk in the driveway and road to make sure there was room to move around....See Morepalimpsest
