Master Bed, Bath and Study/Lounge

7 years ago

3rd revision. Hopefully this is the final. Ideally, I'd want the lounge/study at the end and the bed in the middle (It'll be used more as a study than a lounge) but almost everyone who commented wants the bed at the end.

Another question I got asked a lot was "why 2 toilets"? Convenience?

Anyways, let me know what you think. Thanks


NB: Dimensions

closet :12' x 15'

Shower/Tub: 8' x 4'

Vanities: 5'5" x 2'

Bedroom: 14' x 18'

Lounge/Study: 14' x 18'

Balcony is 4' x 28'


Note on the balcony. We aren't exactly looking for a big space. Just some area to stand outside for a while and go back inside

    Yes, there are doors on the toilets. I might make one toilet a closet.

    Put a real door between the closet and the bathroom, and install a good exhaust fan in the bathroom to keep moisture and aromas out of the closet.

    Not to keep you from getting to a final solution, but have you considered / tried any options with the bathroom in the middle? That would allow anyone in the bedroom and the lounge/study (what will it be used for?) to access the bathroom without having to pass through the other. It's hard to give much advice without knowing more about your habits and needs, however.

    I don’t get the idea of two toilets, either. The rug in the bedroom is too small. The lounge/study needs a desk.
    There is a great deal of wasted space. I would put in a safe for valuables.

    Why do you keep starting new threads instead of continuing the original one? It's impossible to follow.

    I don't get this idea at all. You have almost 800 square feet, yet so much of it is wasted because it must be kept free for walking through.

    OK, I haven't been following everything but I gotta ask, is there closet on one side of bed area in addition to walk in? I'm imaging lots of echo in the big empty space. I guess I like cozy bedrooms. And, I agree, in my house the study would be away from the sleeping area as hubby likes tv (one in there?) and I need quiet for sleep or focused reading in bed. Once we looked at a house to buy with lots of floor space. My realtor advised me I'd need a riding vacuum.

    I'd keep experimenting: I love seeing a tub nicely placed esp. under a window - it's charming.

    For yours: maybe give up a toilet [or place where the corner L shelving is.... then turned the tub.] Have a focal tub with pretty chandelier over it.

    Or you could bring the tub next to balcony and add a high window to enjoy fresh, coor air and fragrance of flower in planter.

    I like the idea of a separate toilet from a significant other.

    I am not thrilled that you would have to touch a door before you have washed your hands.

    What is that thing with the three boxes? Is that a sofa or storage?

    Do you have space in the bedroom for a bench at the foot of the bed? Or any type of chair in the bedroom?

    Or the right frost window facing the balcony - natural light!

    Yes, I considered a bathroom in the middle but I’d like the bathroom joined to the closet.

    I will replace one toilet with a closet.

    The rug/beds etc aren’t drawn to scale. They’re just to show where everything goes. Room size is 14x18. Should be enough for a bed and 2 chairs.

    3 boxes is a sofa.

    No, there aren’t any closets in addition to the walk in. Those spaces along the wall are cabinets
  • 7 years ago
    I could probably move a few things around, tub etc but I’d like the closet and bathroom to the linked.

    New day and so I noticed both bed and sofa don't face the outdoors - a reason why?

    Have you said why 2 toilets? well, it would be convenient at times.

    At my house having separate toilets is only an advantage if he cleans his whole little room.
