Master bedroom/bathroom layout
Comments (4)Have you gotten estimates on this? Will there be foundation work, or are you just cantilevering over for your bump outs? I ask because, foundation work/integrating into old will be much more $$$ than just cantilevering, if that is possible. But, cantilevering has dimensional limitations. If you are planning to have to pay for a foundation, then go for the size you need, and not smaller/more cramped... because an extra foot or 2 of foundation really isn't that big a deal cost-wise once you are there doing the work....See MoreNeed input on master bedroom and bathroom layout and floorplan. Thx!
Comments (10)Can you solve the door issue for Room C by making it an outswing? When open it would then be against the wall with what I assume is some kind of air return / chase. In your bathroom you might also gain some privacy for the toilet by pushing the shower up towards the closet and then putting the toilet on the shower side. Then you can put the linen closet or cabinet across from the toilet (that could also hold toilet paper for when you realize you're out ;) Would be shallower but the back of a 40" deep linen closet would probably be fairly inaccessible anyway. Would perhaps be less private when using the vanity because of the mirror, but do you generally use the toilet when someone else is in the room anyway?...See MoreHelp with master bath and closet design
Comments (4)I don't mind it the way it is with a couple of small things.. 1) bedroom entry door swings to hit closet door. 2) I'm not a huge fan of windows in closets, but I understand that may be necessary from an aesthetic exterior standpoint. If you do this, make sure you put UV coating on/over the window to prevent fading and damage to your clothes. 3) I'm not a fan of the dual pocket doors into the master bathroom. I think a regular door would be fine. 4) Bedroom 1 has no closet. I think for resale in order to call it a bedroom, you'll need a closet. (I realize it would be simple to close off the shelving area, just wanted to point that out)....See MoreBathroom Design--walk-in closet in bathroom
Comments (28)Personally, I don’t see any problem with having a walk in closet off of master bath. In fact, I like the idea... super convenient. As long as it is within your area’s building code guidelines, I don’t see why it would be an issue, or why you would feel you need validation for this idea (?). People take entire rooms of their existing houses to convert to custom closets, and most folks don’t view that as being odd. I don’t view it as being odd either, btw; and even if I did view it as being odd, it wouldn’t really be my business - since it’s not my house. As far as ‘’making things easier‘’ for your husband goes, though - I hope these extra modifications do work the way you intend, and that he doesn't just forego the closet - and throw his stuff on the bathroom floor!...See MoreIan Steidel
