C. Design the house according to feng shui from the start.

Chances are walking through a bathroom to get to a clothes closet is not feng shui, neither is a gas chamber.

We have a house in the mountains with beautiful views and privacy, and our bedroom has a door to the rest of the house that's roughly where yours is, our (large) windows are where yours are, and our bathroom is in the same place as yours.

Our headboard is against the bathroom wall. I love laying in bed at night and being able to see outside on two sides. And because the ceiling in our bedroom is an A-frame, I feel like I'm in a warm, comfortable tent (but bigger).

Our closet is off our bathroom, as well. I'm totally fine with that, that's the way our previous house was, as well. In our mountain climate, everything is always dry so we've never had any mildew problems.

Will you have any other furniture in the room besides a bed and night stands and if so where will that go?

We have our closet off the bathroom and have what Mark calls a "gas chamber" and wouldnt have it any other way. We had it this way in our previous house and never had any issues.

In every house I’ve had(as an adult), my closet has been accessed via the bathroom. We just bought a house in the mountains and the closet in the master is outside the bathroom. I absolutely hate it. I hate having to take clothes into the bathroom and leave on the counter or toilet, and I hate the other option of wandering around the cold bedroom as opposed to the warm bathroom wrapped in a towel to get my clothes. So much so that I moved downstairs to a much smaller room that has the closet off the bathroom.

The good thing about furniture is that it is movable. Just make it so you can enjoy either option and you should be fine. In your instance my first choice is to have the bed on the bath wall. For me personally, I’d put the bed on the wall so the headboard faces the door. Which is exactly how my room is, I even have a fabulous view off the back of my bedroom, but I never look at it from there. I go in my room mostly after dark, read and go to sleep. I get up, get dressed, make the bed and leave. I enjoy the view from the great room or the covered porch.

If you believe in feng shui as a way to design a home for better energy flow, then I'd follow feng shui principles. If you are using the term to mean more generically "aesthetically pleasing design" then I'd suggest doing whatever works for your lifestyle.

Personally, I'm not one to lie in bed and look out the windows and putting the bed on the bathroom wall gives someone a very long path to the bathroom in the middle of the night, so I'd put it on the outside wall.

And I agree that people that don't live in low humidity climates don't understand that a closet off the bathroom is a non-issue for those of us in areas where it is unusual to get relative humidity above 20%.

As for the gas chamber, that is exactly why there needs to be a door, to contain those noxious smells to a small space while the overworked fan does it's job! :) No reason to poison the spouse that might be using other areas of the bathroom too!

We have a mountain view out our bedroom sliding door. Our bed is placed on the wall opposite the door between two windows. Then we have a dresser on the opposite wall. Our bathroom wall is where yours is as well.

Like others have mentioned we never really sit in bed and look out the sliding doors to the view. The view is enjoyed from the kitchen, great room and porches.

I agree with others. We also have a home in the mountains and our bed is on the bathroom wall so we can enjoy the views. Love waking up to the sunrise!

"What you say about the original question though?"

Design the house according to feng shui from the start.

I try to offer up the best possible solution to questions with the information provided, regardless of the poor solution presented. If feng shui is important to you, you may have a bad layout and you will not be happy with either of your alternatives.

Our headboard will be against what would be the bathroom wall in your plan. Our bedroom is the same as yours with respect to views. our Bath and closet is very different though

If you're going to need a larger dresser, you'll need a wall. The bath wall would probably be best for that and give you the most options. Plus, putting the bed on that wall will chop up your walkways awkwardly when entering the room.
