ASV is correct. Popular opinion from the pros.... If at least 1 remains...get rid of it! and enjoy YOUR master shower ;)

Agree with Yabro. As long as you have one bathtub in the house then there's no need to keep it (unless you have a monstrously huge bathroom and buyers would expect it to have a tub). I just recently renovated my master bathroom. Maximized its 80 sq. ft. My priorities were a water closet, double vanity and a nice shower. I ditched the bath/shower combo and have absolutely no regrets. My space was too precious to waste on an unused tub. Love the large dual shower. And, my kids have a tub in their bathroom (but they prefer our shower--big surprise). Some buyers will be disappointed no tub in the master, but in our area my bathroom is such an upgrade, I can't imagine it being anything but a huge selling point. (would you rather bathe in a 3x5 shower/tub combo or shower in a 4x5 space with a nice seat and two shower heads--seemed obvious to me.)

That said, don't overbuild your closet. When I reconfigured my master, I was able to make a 9x5 walk-in-closet which was a big improvement over the huge but highly inefficient L-shaped closets I had before. This too is a big upgrade compared to other homes in my area. So for resale value, you have to know what buyers expect in your neighborhood and how it compares to other homes in your area. If you are really concerned about resale, I would talk to a real estate agent that routinely handles listings in your area.

One last thought, regardless of the tub issue, your resale value should only go up provided you do a quality and thoughtful renovation that is relatively in line with what is expected in your area.

thanks!!
