WWYD? Larger bathroom or walk in closet

Andrea
12 months ago

We are getting ready to remodel our primary bathroom this fall. Depending where we put the shower (within the existing footprint of the bathroom vs. moving out into the hallway for a larger bathroom) will determine whether we can create a walk in closet in our bedroom. We can't have both due to the current placement of the door into the bedroom, but if we keep the smaller bathroom footprint, we can move the bedroom door to build a closet. We currently have a reach in closet that we will rebuild anyway, to maximize usage of space. A walk in would be pretty big and wouldn't really impact our bedroom too much, since we don't have a ton of furniture. Which would you pick--larger bathroom, or walk-in closet?


I'll post floor plans of current bathroom and plans for renovation with moving shower into the hallway. If we keep the existing footprint, the shower will go where the door to the hall is, and vanity will extend across the entire wall opposite the toilet. That way we can move our bedroom door into the alcove across from the existing hallway linen closet, to turn our reach in closet into a walk in.
