Combining a Small Master Bedroom with an Ajoining Small Bedroom?
Comments (6)I did just what you describe and I'm tickled pink with it. In my case it WAS a load-bearing wall, but that just meant I had to header off the opening. I created about a four-foot archway between the two sections of the (now one)room - making one section the bed area and one the sitting/dressing area. I can't tell you what it costs since I did it myself, but I really don't think it would be that bad, depending on what needs to be done. I had to move a electrical box and add another (to stay up to code) but it was mostly a framing/drywall job. I would say the most important thing is visualizing the feel/scale of the new room as well as new traffic patterns and usage patterns to come up with a good design. In may case I created a couple of new walk-in closets to keep the scale of the resulting room comfortable. I know I've been in several "de-partition" rooms that feel just like that - two rooms with a wall knocked down....See MoreI'm curious, if your master bedroom is small
Comments (48)Wow, I feel almost normal reading this thread... our bedroom is 8 and a half by 11 feet, and to constrain things further, has two doorways... one a normal door, the other a set of double doors. The house is Victorian (a skinny one, on another of those 25 foot lots), and I suppose the room was originally the front parlour, connected by double doors to the dining room. Since there is a back addition that is now the living room, the purpose of all the rooms is a bit amorphous - none has a closet, so any room can be, and pretty much has been while the kids have been growing up, a bedroom. The double bed is centred on the long wall, and you can't get around the foot end because there is a bookshelf there (need some storage, and I have a thing for furniture too) so no space, so to go from one side of the bed to the other, we have to actually leave the room by whatever door we're near and go down the hall to come in the other door! The room has about as much furniture in it as it can hold, and as much of it as I can manage is tall, with stuff stored on top (the light stuff, as we're in earthquake country). Thank heavens for high ceilings! KarinL...See MoreNeed help on a small addition master bedroom and master bath 19x19
Comments (13)We're adding a slightly larger master suite (20x26) that also includes reconfiguring the original space to create a hallway entrance next to an existing hall bath. Our architect configured the space so that the new master bath abuts the existing hall bath, presumably to minimize the plumbing work etc, as in the 2nd sketch by @er612. She also aligned the new master closet with the existing space which just helps as a sound buffer. The rest of the layout was decided based on views - optimal placement of windows, strategic placement of the bathroom door, having wall space for a TV if you want that....See Morebig bedroom or very small master bedroom?
Comments (6)There are 3 bedrooms, one of them is a master bedroom and I want to know about the two other bedrooms that they would be two small master bedrooms or they would better to be two standard bedrooms with a public facilited bathroom, anyway thank you for your answer....See MorePatricia Colwell Consulting
