Linen needs to go somewhere. What kind of linen? If it is just towels they could go in the vanity drawers. But I'd take a linen closet over a makeup vanity any day :) You can have a top drawer for your makeup at the sink. But then I never spend more then a few minutes on makeup. I prefer to stand. I have never had the setup to sit down, who knows maybe I'd like it. Put all drawers in your sink vanity, or if there is a door at the sink, be sure to add pullouts some how. This way it will keep you organized and prevent you from having to crawl on the floor to get those lost things in the back of the vanity cupboard. Pocket door at the toilet area to recess into the wall on the left tub side. This will open up the toilet and allow access with if someone falls in the toilet room. The way you have it the door would not open. If you want to know how I know this let me know. Can be a frightful situation. Sometimes people go to the toilet when they aren't feeling well and passing out with the door closed could be disastrous. Anyway pocket door on that small room would be perfect. Looks like you have a window next to the toilet. I know several people who love their windows next to the toilet. Gives them something to look at. My carpenter built his home with his toilet across from a window for this the view. When I planned my shower I made sure there was access to the rough-ins from the back side of the shower. Can you do that? Dry wall would be an easy fix compared to ripping out tile and fixing. I don't know much about exhaust fans, but I put 2 in my remodel that joined in the attic to exit the roof as one. My bathroom is 8.5'x 10'. I love the 2 exhaust vents, one at the shower and the other by the toilet. There are lights within each vent as well. Electric, where will your switches go? You have room near the vanity. What switches will you need? I have a heating light in the ceiling and floor heating. Both of these switches are at one side of my room along with a ceiling light. The other side of the room as another switch to the same ceiling light, a switch for my LED toe kick light, and last, the switch to the exhaust fan. My vanity light is at my vanity along with some outlets. I also put outlets in my vanity to hold my hair dryer. You could put an outlet in your linen closet too if needed. Put an outlet by the toilet in case you get one of those advanced toilet seats (which I love Btw). I have more electrical work in my bathroom for my stacked washer/dryer and ironing station. Just look at your layout carefully for switches and locations for outlets. The entry door to the bathroom takes up a lot of room too. the area at the latching side looks almost too small to accommodate switches and casework. If you put another pocket door to recess into the vanity wall, you could utilize that larger wall for switches. The tub may be cramping the vanity, but I am not to sure about tubs. It looks pretty wide at 4 feet. Is it really that wide? and do you need it that wide? Where will your Heating/AC enter the room? I put a toe kick heating vent in my vanity and am very happy with it. I added a bit of insulation on top of the kit to keep the vanity from getting hot (if I remember correctly, so many details. It could be that I didn't because it wouldn't fit the space).

Hi, I just designed my new home and my master bath has a walk-in shower and we don't use a door of anykind. I love it. If your plan was mine I would consider a few changes. It would then look much like mine. Proposed changes: 1) Put your shower entry across from stool. I don't think you'll want it right by the entry. Mine is right across from the stool. 2) Put fan/heater/light fairly close to the opening. 3) Put a shower light in 4)I would consider eliminating the half walls and put a tower of storage cab. on each side of vanity. I went with just one sink because we never seem to have to be in at sink at same time and if we do we share!! I store all my towels, etc. in them. I put an outlet in each and that is where the hair blower, etc. can be plugged in behind the scenes and works out so nice. Code also required one on the outside. 5) I also put a corner little bench in mine for shaving legs, etc. Put some little corner shelves in as well with tiles cut diagonally. You could easily do that same thing. I also put a smaller soaker tub in. Is your closet for linens or clothes? I put my walk-in closet as a separate room. I am very happy with how it turned out. Not a designer, (but have had many positive comments) in my next life!! Good luck on your adventure!

Najeebah Thank you so very much for your efforts and time. How sweet. I would rather access my bathroom through the bedroom door as opposed to going through the master closet to get into the bathroom. The bedroom door can easily be placed to access the bathroom as this was the original plan. (You can see the break in the line of my drawing at the top of the page for the door.) I definitely think I will rethink either placing the linen closet or the toilet on the same wall as the vanity, thereby decreasing vanity length, and taking a foot from the walkway of the bathroom and placing that foot into the closet, as Emily Jowers suggested. I am so grateful for everyone's thoughts.

This is exactly what I was going to suggest. This layout eliminates the pinch point created by the toilet, and it gives you ample space for grab bars around the toilet. It also allows you enough space for a small chest or shallow cabinet, which could store toilet paper for now. You mentioned a moveable cabinet of some sort for the toilet area ... both of my grandparents had some, um, toileting issues in their later years and needed supplies near the toilet. Moveable is not a bad idea, but I suspect you'd be happy to have some sort of storage in that area. I definitely like the shower's entrance across from the sink. It seems that you have more space for the entrance and a nice deep shower. One hang-up: You have a window IN the shower now? Could you flip-flop the shower and the toilet areas? I don't think it'd make a hill of beans difference in the function of the room, but it would place the window above the toilet and give you a solid wall for your shower. I don't see a place for towel bars, but you could have hooks on the edge of the shower entrance. With that long vanity, you could have a linen tower at one (or both) ends, providing plenty of storage. I would do away with the pocket door to enter the bathroom. Pocket doors aren't the easiest things to open, and if you ever have arthritic fingers, they'll be really tough. I like the pocket door on the closet (because that door'll probably stay open most of the time), but I'd place an exhaust fan INSIDE the shower and just OUTSIDE the shower door.
