General room (and bathroom) layout help please

Mike Tantraphol

6 years ago

I recently received a
ton of help getting a master bathroom layout fixed on this forum. One of the
last posters suggested that it would be wise to get a second set of eyes on the
general layout before we go final, which was a brilliant idea. I appreciate any
thoughts you might have.

We are
adding a single-story master bedroom and bath to our existing house, and
leaving 75% of the existing untouched.

Some of the last questions I have remaining are:

1. There is
a new bathroom being added that is going to be easy to access from the family
room and backyard, but further away from the kitchen. Do you see any issues
with the new guest bathroom location (bottom right, kitchen is off the picture to the left)?

2. The
master suite entry door was offset in the hallway to not look directly in at Bedroom B,
which leaves a little tv/sitting area in the corner as well. Is it too close to
the bed? If moved down, I don't think I'd be able to use the remaining space as well.

There
are double doors from the master leading out to the patio/deck/yard with the
most light. Should double doors be center to the patio wall, or center to the
bedroom wall (as much as possible)?

Thanks again for
looking at this post!
