We are knocking down part of a wall between our current master bedroom and my sons old room to make one big Master Suite.

There will be 3 parts to the Master Suite.

1. A big bathroom with his/her sink/vanities, toilet, walk-in glass shower and towel storage. The short wall beside towel storage must stay due to support issues. The entrance to the bathroom will be a large frosted glass barn type sliding door.

2. A vestibule area with a built in white Ikea PAX unit with doors that takes up the entire wall. The 2 end PAX doors are glass. Directly across from the PAX a long dresser with a round grey ottoman in front and a dressing table with chair in a nook beside the sliding bathroom door with a beautiful bright window. There are 2 skylights in this space directly above the long dresser.

3. A sleeping area with king size platform bed with tall fabric headboard. 2 night stands and hopefully a chaise lounge chair and small table in the corner along the side wall.

Here’s the issue - we’d like to use the 32” door from the hallway into the vestibule as the main entrance and then as you proceed along the wall of the PAX you get to a set of double 26” doors that lead you to the sleeping area. This allows privacy in the bedroom and if one of us gets up first to shower and change it won’t disturb the other. We’d close up the old entrance door in my sons old room to allow for better furniture placement in the main sleeping area.

Here are our choices -

Choice # 1 - Enter Master Suite from the hallway to the vestibule area and install a non-see through modern glass 32” door to let light in the hallway from the beautiful dormer window at the dressing table. This would set the Master Suite apart from the other bedroom doors in the house and ensures privacy in the sleeping area.

Choice # 2 - Have 2 entry spots. One that leads to the vestibule with the glass modern door and one that uses the old entry door from my sons room leads to the sleeping area or even install double 26” doors at that spot. Only problem is any door entry into the sleeping area from the hallway really restricts the usable floor space in the sleeping area and we’d really like to put a chaise lounge on that side of the room plus we like the privacy in the bedroom by a person not being able to walk right into the sleeping area.

I understand Master Bedroom entires are traditionally done at the sleeping area vs a wardrobe area. This is my dilemma.

Appreciate any advice you can offer. Sorry for the messy floor plan.
