Newbie here! I just bought a 50's California bungalow. One of the first projects I'd like to tackle is a bathroom. It's a pretty standard size with a tub, vanity and toilet. I'd like to redo the tile around the tub and the floor, replace the vanity (I've seen some great remodels using Ikea vanities) and toilet. Not planning on using anything super exotic for the tile - subway tiles around the tub and possibly up the wall and maybe some hexagonal tiles on the floor. I was hoping it would be possible to remove the old tile and put up new tile over the existing drywall/backer board but from my research it looks like that may not be possible and that I would have to have someone redo all that which sounds like it would cost a lot of $$. I know more specifics would help but I haven't moved in yet so I can't get any measurements. I'd just love to hear about some of your experiences. Thanks in advance!

I've attached the only shot of the bathroom from the listing.
