Is this master bath layout awkward?
Comments (29)Debbie, thanks so much for all of the thought you've put into this! I do have a little time before we really need to order bathroom fixtures, but my GC wants to know the measurements of tub/shower/etc. as they are framing in the walls/windows/closet. First, our reasoning for the single sink. We recently bought land from my father and are building the house out in the country. I cannot ever see selling the house to anyone but family, as we are on family land and are within a 5 mile radius of three family members. Therefore, we are building this house to suit our current and future needs, and resale isn't a concern right now. Okay, maybe we won't live here FOREVER, but I'm hoping it's pretty darn close. The step to the bathtub is no longer an issue, as I talked to my GC yesterday and there is no problem lowering the windows to the tub deck. He is also working on various layouts for this bathroom, which may include moving a wall or the windows, which apparently are still moveable. Right now (because I don't really like corner tubs, as much as I've tried to convince myself that it might make more sense) I'm hoping to keep the tub oriented along one wall. Suero, the shower door will probably be sliding, although that isn't set yet. Again, thanks so much!...See MoreDecor for awkward master bedroom wall
Comments (40)Thank you, pennydesign! I think I'm going to look at floating headboards with integrated nightstands. Something like this maybe I can chalk paint and put some better drawer pulls on. And still love the simple hanging pendant light idea. Kind of gives a blank slate for the above bed decor I'll have to play with a bit more. And definitely some nice Roman shades for the windows....See MoreLayout 1 or layout 2? Master bedroom
Comments (5)One idea, since the room seems large enough, might be to plan your room with the objective of turning the bed so the foot of your bed is closer to the windows than the head of the bed -- you'd face the windows as you wake up. https://www.homedit.com/5-diy-practical-headboards/bed-with-headboard-storage-behind/...See MoreNeed help with awkward master bathroom layout
Comments (12)Wow, these are some really great ideas!! @ssdarb I want to try to limit the scope to not moving any walls but your plan looks really great. I want to see if I can square off the closet similar to @Karenseb and sort of combine both of your designs together. The only thing is I am not certain how I feel about seeing the toilet facing me when I walk in and I am not sure if 5"x3" will feel claustrophobic? @Debbi Washburn I also thought about the layout with the tub rotated but still separated from the shower but thought the tub area looks a little cramped. I didn't want to have the tub inside the shower due to additional cleaning of the tub from water splashes since the distance for my shower head to the tub won't be that far (you can probably tell I am the one to clean the bathrooms in the house :P ) @pamal66 I plan to get a free standing tub so that I won't need the surround. It looks like I might be able to do that but the tub edge will be very close to the glass. I am just not sure if I will loose inches due to switching those tiles to quartz shower surrounding. @ssdarb That layout looks cool but I am afraid the glass might be a safety concern for my toddler. Thank you everyone! I am going to talk to my DH about it a bit more with all of your wonderful comments! I will keep you all posted!...See MoreAngel 18432
