I do not see a 13 x13 bedroom in the drawings so maybe correct that. I am not a huge fan of walk in pantries and I need to see the whole floor plan with the original in one plan and the new plan in another Post those to scale plans here in comments DO NOT start another post. Show every window and door way and all measurements clearly marked for both spaces .

Agree with Patricia, but it looks like MB was not relabeled as 13’ x 13’. Walk in Pantries (like walkin closets) leave me wondering why we spend so much money on unused space in the middle of such 🤨.

I think this makes good sense. I think 13x13 is plenty for a bedroom and would find the larger closet and pantry more useful.

If your bedroom only needs a bed, do it. You will love the extra space. I honestly don’t understand the need for a giant bedroom. Sitting and computers and TVs have their own rooms.

btw, we are shrinking our bedroom this winter also. We have a quirky apartment that uses our bedroom as a hallway to get to the other bedroom. We are putting in a wall to separate the hallway from the bedroom. Can’t wait.

I have a bedroom that's 10 x 12 (NYC apartment, haha). You may only have room for 1 other piece of furniture besides the nightstands without the room looking cramped, but it's totally doable. If you tend to be a minimalist by nature, and you like having things put away and out of sight, you'll probably love it. If you like an easy chair and a bench and a large bureau in the bedroom, it's not going to work for you. I love a walk in pantry myself because rooting through tons of cabinets is drives me crazy. But YMMV.

We shrank our bedroom a bit to add half bath and better closet - so worth it! and ours started smaller than 13x13. i think that is plenty big, although i am another that doesn’t understand giant bedrooms. probably depends somewhat on location, size of house, comps, etc.
