It works, but it's a long walk in the middle of the night...or when one wants that shower!

Where do the fresh linens and dirty clothes go?

Is the door in the little hall the only way in to the master?

Hi Wysmama - I think the original tub concept looked better versus the clipped corners on the tub deck - are you opposed to the freestanding tub idea ?

Getting rid of that strange bumpout inside the left walk-in closet will make the closet shelving install go smoother.

I'd advise against a whirlpool tub. They're noisy and you'll almost never use it. You'll get much more use out of a regular soaker. If you want jets, get your builder to install a hot tub on the deck outside. And just as an aside, I'd make sure you have a tankless water heater so you can make sure you've got enough hot water to fill the tub.

If you could make the smaller closet not a walk-in, the space will feel much less cramped. You wouldn't really be losing much storage.

Beautiful. I also vote for a soaker tub instead of a jetted. Cleaner.

I don't think the walkway is too long. It is way better than having the bathroom door right by the bedroom where you can hear everything. I like the insulation of the closets.

Can't tell from your plans, but that run between the closets looks narrow and by pushing the closet back it opens up the entry area too. Also no natural light in that area, so skinny and dark. If you could push back the closets to get a 45" hallway, that would be great. A non-walk-in is about 2' deep.

Am I reading it right that the closets are less than 5' wide?

And the same for the toilet?

What is between the two showers and how wide are they?

I like the overall layout but will make several comments:

- Someone asked above if the little hallway is the only door into the master suite; this 45 degree angle may make it impossible to bring in large furniture. Could you have an exterior door somewhere in the master? This could help with bringing in furniture, and it would be a help for fire safety, and with a pool /hot tub you'll appreciate being able to enter your bedroom directly from the back yard.

- How wide should a hallway be? No less than 3 1/2' ... 4' is nicer.

- I think I'd rather see one of the closets become a wall of built-in drawers /the other side a deeper walk-in closet. Put a large mirror above the built-in drawers, and it'll make the hallway appear wider.

- I hate toilets crammed into closets, and this one won't work because it has an inswing door. Where will you stand while you close the door? This closet looks minimal in size, which means minimal in comfort.

- Oval tub /rectangular tub ... choose the one that appeals to you rather than what's trendy now. A tub is a long-long term purchase.

- I wanted a jetted tub ... until I stayed in a hotel with a jetted tub. I strongly disliked the noise. I also don't care about a large tub, but I want a deep tub. The point: Do your best to "try before you buy" so you know you're getting what you'll really like. Tubs are not easy to change out.

- I'd remove one of the linen closets /shorten the bathroom ... while the layout works well, it's just too long. With one linen closet gone, it will still be a large bath.

- I personally would remove one "end" of the shower /have a walk-in linen closet.

- I can see towel bars next to the shower ... where are your tub towels hanging?

Is the double shower REALLY necessary? I mean I understand wanting lavish (I have lavish taste, but on a middle class champagne bottle) I mean, my husband takes like 6 minute showers so never a big deal to wait. I'd rather one shower, plus 2 actual walk in closets that are wide enough to accommodate hanging or dresser storage on both walls.

Plus it' the double shower that makes the room need to be so wide. Now don' gget me wrong, I hate cramped space and would like about a 5' walkway between sinks/tubs... what does your walkway come out to be? Just seems like a possible area with lots of wasted space using high end materials. But if your budget matches it, then go for it if you feel like two showers will really add value to your life.

by the way, I'd love to see the rest of your plan! if you don't want to post it, maybe message me? :)

How wide is the hall between the closets?

The closets are big. If you could get the left closet almost flush with the vanity and use folding doors, it would really open up the whole space and make it feel much nicer.

You have a good layout for packing in as much stuff as possible...but sometimes that isn't always what is best.

I revised the layout to keep as much of this stuff, while making the entry to the room more cozy.

Move your make up vanity into the entry of the master bedroom- the moisture in baths isn't the best for this anyway. Make the closets equal sizes, or scoot the toilet back up into the closet and shrink his space a little bit. Those are LARGE closets.

Try to eliminate the toilet door swinging into the room. consider a pocket door that slides into the closet wall.

For the vanities, i personally would only do the long one and do a double sink on it- but the original design had separate vanities.

I would rather put a nice bench underneath the window that you can lay robes/slippers on for after a shower.

Well I love it....And I love my jetted tub. And it gets used at least once a week.

I will echo the others that said to make sure you can get furniture in and out. It seems minor, but dressers and box springs and headboards don't bend to turn corners.

(Also make sure you have adequate extractor fans. And a heated towel rail only because I just installed one and I LOVE IT SO!!!)

A 14' long shower is NOT a double shower. It's a triple shower and will be quite chilly.A decent sized single shower is 4' x 5'. Most people consider a double shower 4' x 8'. I would rethink the shower and use the space more wisely

CP- the closets are 6 ft deep and 15 ft long

So realistically, you're probably looking at one of these two layouts: Either one long hanging area (some of it double-hanging) + two sets of 4' drawers ... or two 6' hanging areas + 10' of drawers in the middle. That's a lot of space; from the original drawing, I didn't realize the closets were so large.

Hallway is 3 and a half feet wide.

3 1/2' is okay ... not outstanding, but okay ... but make SURE that's your actual space; that is, make sure it takes into account wall thickness. If you remove 4" for wall thickness (maybe a little more, if you're going with pocket doors on those closets) you'd feel it in a 3 1/2' shower. Be sure you have a TRUE 3 1/2'.

I agree that the shower is way too big -- even for a double shower. I also agree that 4x5' is pretty ideal for a single shower, and I've been measuring hotel showers + friends' showers for years.

I hear you when you say your husband wants a double shower ... but double shower doesn't have to mean two identical showers. Here's what I'd do with that in mind:

- I like the suggestion of putting the tub in the middle.

- I'd make one side of the shower into a walk-in linen closet. Plenty of space for a BIG one.

- I'd make the rest of the large space into a double shower ... but go with one standard shower against the wall ... and put in a bench /handheld shower for the second shower; it makes sense for this one to be "behind" the tub. Two different shower experiences in the same space.

I like Mrs Petes solution a lot for your shower

We looked at a house recently with a long narrow hallway (probably 3 1/2 feet wide) and it felt awful and really narrow. Opening that up a bit wider is a good idea.

I think the hallway to your bath is going to feel very cramped.

Just to give you some perspective, this hallway just squeaks by at 4 feet wide, and standing where the picture was taken it’s 9 feet to the doorway. So, I would say that a 3’6” wide hallway is pretty narrow, and the fact that it’s a 14’ run is going to make it feel even more narrow. I think for a hallway as long as yours, 4 feet would be the bare minimum in width so as not to feel like the walls are closing in on you.

Here’s another example....hallway is 4 feet wide, and the distance to the hinges on the door is 14 feet. So, even with a 4’ wide hallway, it’s still pretty darn narrow. Note how the longer hallway makes it look more narrow compared to the picture in my last post, yet both these hallways are 4 feet wide.
