Master bedroom layout option with poll

4 years ago

We are planning to extend out over our garage adding a nursery and a new master suite. there are 2 layout options we are considering. the first puts the bathroom and WIC at the back of the room. The second puts the bathroom at the front, which gives us more privacy but sacrifices some space in the bathroom. Any insights?

IMO #1 makes the best use of the space . I will say I never like bedrooms over garages and kids ones even less is there not another place to add on?

Thanks for the response. Unfortunately this is the only way to get more bedrooms upstairs.

my husband prefers B. he feels its more private. it reminds him of a hotel room. I’m not sure.
