if the shower door opens the way you have it, won't that be a bit clumsy with the step there? or is it just 1 step and that area is flat floor?

the tub looks like that back area would be difficult to access for cleaning.

Just one step there. You're right about the back of the tub being a little difficult to clean. We can live with that though.

It took us a while to figure out how to place everything, but I think we're on the right track.

Looks pretty good, but where will you hang your towels?

That's a good question. We were thinking of hanging the towels on the all near the radiator. I will be a bit of a reach (a step really), but I don't see another obvious place. Plus, the radiator will warm the towels in the winter!

Did you choose one sink for a reason? A 36" vanity is pretty small, especially for 2 adults. You have 3 windows so why not close up the one window next to the shower and wrap the counter around the corner so it butts up to the tub? Its not expensive to do and then you'll have 2 sinks and a LOT more counter space; all of which are more expected in a master bath. I know others will chime in with objections to my comment, but I'm a Realtor and that's been MY experience. You didn't mention if your plumbing is done already but it's something to consider.

Can you move the pocket door towards the radiator or is it too late? Then at least you can put a hook on the wall.

I think desertsteph is right I would change the swing of the door on the shower. I see you have a window behind the toilet. Is this a first floor bathroom? You might just be mooning the world each time you go! I love windows and I do like a light bright room but you have 4 windows in this room. That's a lot of windows for a bathroom. I can see having the tub windows and maybe the one by the sink but depending on how you want the house to look from the outside you might want to rethink this window.

Ha! No the bathroom is on the second floor and that window is a half window, and it sits quite above the toilet. The remaining windows are in their original location and we wanted to preserve that look - plus we love the morning light they provide. We will have to use privacy blinds at night, but you can't see into the bathroom during the day.

We can't move the pocket door because it's at the end of a small hallway, which will have small walk-in closets on either side. There will be room near the radiator for two towels.

We specifically opted for one sink over two. My wife is also a realtor, but this house is for us and we are renovating it to our tastes. We hope to be in this house for the foreseeable future.

I'm not sure why you're asking for outside opinions then? Seems like you have it the way you like it and it's a go!

I'd switch the vanity and the shower and remove the window. I'd also relocate the radiator, put the toilet there, and build a pony wall.

That looks good house! I think the glass showers are so pretty to look at when you walk in. That also solved the issue with the deep recessed tub area. Cool! But, I think they said they were already ruffed in.

Even if you only want/need one sink, houseful's plan gives you the option of more storage in the vanity. I'd swing the shower door the other way, though.

Think houseful's ideas are great! When you walk in you face a beautiful glass shower and the tub is no longer blocked by the shower. The size of the double vanity is more in scale with the rest of the room/pieces. Also love what she did with the toilet, both for the privacy and I don't like walking into a bathroom and immediately seeing the toilet before anything else. Just my opinion--hope you find something that works for you!

You didn't mention lighting so that may be one thing that is missing from the plan. I would put one can over the shower and perhaps two over the tub. Lighting at face level on either side of the vanity mirror is nice. Good luck and please post pictures when you are done!

Wow! Thanks houseful! That was one option I did not consider. I really like that layout.

My biggest hesitation is losing the one window. We wanted to keep the exterior design unchanged. Nonetheless, we could still make these changes- the plumbing and floors have not been installed. The framing is complete and has been insulated with rigid foam, which would make it messy to clear out the electrical already installed, but not a huge deal.

Hmmmmmmmm...

you can still keep the window...

That would give our neighbors something to talk about!

You could close up the window on the outside using a ghost window. Meaning, you keep all the exterior window trim in place, but cover up the window itself with the same clapboard or whatever the rest of the house is covered in. It's a common technique in historic houses when someone wants to preserve the balance of the facade.
