Then linen tower is a must. I don't think the under sink vanity and sit down vanity offer enough storage for towels, extra lotions, shampoos, soaps, TP, hair products and stylers. (I know we accumulate a lot of stuff in master bath including medicines, first aid supplies, heating pad etc)

I think you floor plan would work

I don't have a great suggestion for how to fix it, except maybe switching the toilet and make up vanity, but I would not like looking at the toilet from my bed, should the door be left open. I'd like it better tucked where the vanity is.

It would bug me to go through the bathroom to get to the closet. I would rather go through the closet to get to the bathroom. What if you closed off the door to the bedroom and moved it to the closet. You could then turn the sink sideways and have a longer continuous countertop along the long wall.

Thanks so much for the input! You all made me ask myself a few more questions and re-examine the plan. :)

bh401- On your suggestion we will absolutely be putting in the linen tower. We are going to do drawers at the bottom and typical cabinets on top.

olychick- Fantastic consideration! I had never even thought about that, and me being a bit OCD that would have driven me a little crazy! lol I checked from both pillows and I can only see about half of the vanity while my husband sees the whole thing, but no toilet view from either. ;)

catbuilder- Our initial plan was to enter through the closet, but after a bit of back and forth I realized that I keep my bathroom looking nicer than my closet so I would rather the view from the bedroom be of the tidy bathroom. This was a big decision though in dealing with sunlight. The closet opening from the center as opposed to acting as a hallway also allows for a lot more hanging space. Which I admit that I need! haha

I have been considering something similar (closet entrance via bathroom) for my master redo, and what I've been struggling with is the potential for a traffic jam. Meaning: if one spouse has closed the bathroom door to use the toilet,the other spouse temporarily loses access to all their stored clothes.

In your layout I suppose the only way to create privacy and have enough knee room would mean switching the sink and the toilet but then sacrificing the vanity table in order to move the door toward the closet.

Would you swap some of the shower for another sink? Or if you moved the toilet to the wall with the shower (smaller shower) you could have it in its own closet or at least with a pony wall (I really like having the toilet separate) and get a trough sink so you could have a double sink of sorts.

I have a similarly shaped master bath and have the windows above the closet doors as well and love it.

Regarding the "traffic jam" socalsister mentions, one solution would be to put the toilet in its own compartment. It would mean reconfiguring the space and losing the linen tower (which, BTW, I don't think is such a big deal when you have a big closet adjacent. We have drawers in our vanity, SOOOO much more useful than doors, and most supplies are kept there; overflow goes in baskets on shelves in the closet next door.)

Oh, I just saw the note about not moving the plumbing. I guess that's out, then!

I think it looks pretty darn good the way it is, given the restrictions. You've made good use of the space if you're constrained to plumbing on one wall only.

i'm wondering if there is any way you might incorporate your linen storage in the closet. and i agree about repositioning the toilet so it's not the first thing you see. ideally i like the toilet behind a door of it's own, if at all possible -especially in a master suite.

i'd try to move the linens elsewhere so i could free up some of that space along the bottom wall for a double sink vanity -and move the toilet to where the makeup vanity is now. with a longer vanity you could dedicate the center section to makeup.

I think your plan looks great. For me personally, I would much prefer to see a second sink where the makeup vanity is or place the toilet there and have a second sink where the toilet is shown. I would never use a makeup vanity, but I would prefer to not share a sink. I realize though that this may not be an option considering your comment regarding head room below.

All in all, I think you've done a great job. If it were me, I'd swap the toilet and makeup area (I also prefer toilet privacy), but given your plumbing restrictions I understand that's not feasible.

I would consider two sinks and other considerations (e.g. more separation for the toilet) more important than two showers, but if taking showers together is something you and your spouse enjoy, then feel free to just stop reading now and ignore this comment. :-)

But assuming you are still reading... I just think it's much more common for both people to be using sinks at the same time (e.g. in the AM, husband shaving, wife washing her face) than for both to be showering at the same time. I also use the bathroom sink to hand-wash delicate and/or private clothing, so having an extra sink is handy for avoiding "sink gridlock." I agree that if you're doing a master bath it should have either a bathtub or (and/or) a more luxurious shower, not a cramped little shower stall, but I think you could get that effect without using six feet by three feet of primo bathroom real estate.

How fixed is the toilet location? I mean, is that where the stack is, and would it be a major hassle to plumb it so the toilet could be a couple of feet one way or the other? If there's a little flexibility, try this:

(1) Use a pocket door between bedroom and bath.

(2) Rotate the toilet so its back is to the bedroom wall and it's in that corner where the sink is shown in your plan.

(3) Build a pony wall, or possibly a full-height wall, to the right side of the toilet so it's not visible from the bedroom. You could even fully enclose it if you wanted, building two full-height walls and using a folding door that the toilet would face--or for that matter even a curtain--though it wouldn't be spacious in there.

(4) Scoot the shower all the way up to the wall between bathroom and closet, and make it 4'x3' or 4' x 3'6" instead of 5'11"x2'10". (Widening it will make more sense when I explain the makeup vanity in step 5). The area of the 2-person shower on your plan is about 17.5 square feet, and that's for two people; changing it as I'm suggesting will make it a one-person shower with either 12 sq ft or 14 sq ft of space, so it actually only costs you about 1/6 to 1/3 of the space the shower occupies on your current plan, and it will still feel luxuriously large to the one person who's using it.

(5) To make room for the wider shower, rotate the makeup vanity 90 degrees so it's facing the bedroom instead of the closet. This lets you scoot the closet door over enough to widen the shower, though it would likely require either a slightly narrower makeup vanity or a slightly narrower door to the bedroom.

(6) And now, at last, put two 18" deep x 24" or 30" wide sink vanities side by side along that bottom wall (the one the toilet and sink are on in your current plan), down in the corner that you liberated by making the shower smaller. Store the linens in the sink vanities. Make the shower wall facing these sinks glass so it doesn't feel cramped when you're standing by the sinks. (It won't be cramped--you'll have about 30" between the edge of the sink and the shower--but a glass wall would make it feel even more open.)

If you make the shower 4x3 instead of 4'x3'6", you might also have room for a small linen tower right in the corner where the shower meets the closet wall. But your main linen storage could be in one of the sink vanities.

One more thought--is there any way a makeup vanity could be on the opposite side of that wall, in the bedroom? It would make for a narrower pathway between that side of the bed and the rest of the room, but it would let you move the pocket door to the bathroom up a bit, creating more room for the toilet compartment, and would also let you keep the linen tower in the bathroom.
