You do not have a walkin now and IMO the better choice would be a nice wall of reach in in the bedroom and aredo of the bathroom so it is accessed from the bedroom.

We are looking to renovate the lower part, which is the master suite. Here is another sketch that shows the stairs and the linen closets.

@Patrick Colwell Consulting we know it's a small closet, we're looking for a way to make it bigger (walk-in closet) in order to have little to no furniture in the bedroom

Thank you so much!!

Best to give all the room measurements not sq footage so do that so we know the size of everything I was not awake so misread which bedroom was the master . I still would do rach in clsets but I need the measurements please

The primary bedroom is 17.7 x 11.3 ft
The master bathroom is 6.10 x 11.4 ft
Here are the dimension of the closet

I would eliminate the existing closet, and run reach-in closets along the bottom wall and the wall opposite the window. Use a closet system with shelves and drawers where the existing closet is - still open to the bedroom, but less visible.

That would put all your clothes in one area, without additional furniture.

Are you planning to remodel the master bathroom? If so, do you want to make it larger or keep the same footprint with things where they are now?

Yes we will be remodelling the master bathroom as well. Ideally we would like it a little bigger, but if it stays this size it is fine. We don't mind taking square footage of the bedroom : we just want our king size bed, nightstands and a wall mounted TV.

Thanks for info. A wall of reach in closets mixed with built in drawers would work well in this room. The wall of built ins could have a tv mounted in the center with room for electronics below.

The photo below uses Ikea cabinets. For clothes, you can use their Pax wardrobe system with doors.

I think you can expand the closet 6 ft into the bedroom and still have room for a king size bed and about 4ft to walk around the end of it. The downside to the closet is that at 5 ft - it gives you 24" for hanging and the other 3 ft is for walking through. Hard to give more advice because it is difficult to decipher how the stairs are situated without a picture.

I would not put the linen closet where you had it - you will never be able to swing a mattress out of that room if you expand the closet and shift the door.

Is there any way to create a main entrance to the master suite? Putting a pocket door at the stairs? Then reduce the depth of the closet to a reach in and add another closet on the opposite wall. You are, in a way entering through a closet, but not an open one.

Again - there has to be room to move furniture
