Thanks everyone! We are so pleased to be done. Palimpsest, yes the shower head is at the back of the tub. bumble_doodle, we have an extra long curtain and it does not wrap around. Turns out that while we thought we'd need a wrap around, we actually don't at all. The water from the shower does not splash there at all thankfully.

I did one house where a previous owner had removed a closet to enlarge the bathroom. We handled it by stealing the coat space at the back entry and inserting a wardrobe cabinet above the bedroom baseboard thus avoiding rerouting ductwork on the back side. Built in cabinets count as closets here to qualify a room as a bedroom. I once was planning a tiny bedroom closet to get a room to qualify as a bedroom and I asked the building inspector if the closet was required. He said that code officials didnt care; if the room was large enough, had a suitable window, and a smoke detector, it was legal sleeping space. MLS rules dictate the criteria for a bedroom and the interpretation varies. Another potential issue is bedrooms in walk out basements, is it a large 1 bedroom with 3 dens or a 4 bedroom house? IKEA had a great sink that only projected about 10 inches into the room as the faucet was at the side not behind the basin. Too bad they discontinued the model before I started anything. That house has plenty of room to add a basement bathroom so that will probably be the first step.

Here's my suggestion ... For the boys' bathroom -- yes, this is a small space: - Since they're large boys, give them a nice big shower ... it'll fit nicely into that space to the left. Towels will have to hang on the back of the door. - The vanity isn't exactly spacious, but it will allow them to have some drawer storage ... which is good because they don't have any other storage in the bathroom. I'd put a train rack over the toilet for their towels. - The toilet is now over in a corner but not hidden away behind a door. Toilets-in-closets make the bathroom smaller /less comfortable, and it's harder to clean around doors. - The door swing opens so that a boy can enter the room /step over in front of the toilet to close the door. The door-over-door issue /the enter, then step-around to reach the toilet problem disappears. For the master -- yes, this is really too wide /you don't want a bunch of empty space in the middle, making the bathroom feel bloated and cold ... I'd reduce the space a bit and let that space open towards the bedroom. It could be a recessed spot for a dresser (or custom built-in drawers, or a built-in TV spot), or it could be a linen closet. While a linen closet in the master isn't ideal, it's better than NO linen closet at all. Other master thoughts: - I repositioned the tub so it's under the window ... it makes for a nice sight line upon entering the room. - The shower works well "up against" the boys' shower. Again, it's a nice big space, and it tucks in so nicely to this spot. It's out of the immediate sight line, and -- if you're going with glass -- it'll be a one-piece wall /no difficult corner joinings. - I'd lose the toilet closet and place the toilet nicely out of sight behind a pony wall. - This leaves you with a vanity that's actually a little bigger than the one you were showing. With no storage in this bathroom either, I'd lean towards a linen tower for storage ... this could be done in several different ways. - Circulation works well in this layout ... note that you walk into the middle of the room, so everything's only a step away. In contrast, your original plan requires that you walk the length of the bedroom, then turn and walk the length of the bathroom to reach the toilet. - Last thought: The bathroom door can now "park" in the little entry hallway ... nothing opens "over" anything else. - Alternate thought: You could shorten the vanity /have a linen closet (or just shelves) opening towards the little bathroom hallway. - Actual last thought: You have great windows in this bathroom. Are you and your spouse on different wake/sleep cycles because if so, the fact the clothes closets are on one of your sleep sides will be an issue. Agree ... even if your wake /sleep cycles are the same now, are you sure they'll stay the same? Our walk-in closets are similar to yours, and they're right by my husband's side of the bed. I always lay my clothes out the night before because I hate tip-toeing over by his side to reach my clothes. Barn doors do not offer the visual or audial or odorous privacy required in a bathroom, and they kill wall space. I stayed in a hotel with a barn door on the bathroom once. It was enough to convince me that they're impractical. I might accept one on a pantry or laundry room ... where the door would stay open most of the time ... but a bathroom? Never.
