Help! I cant seem to get my bathroom design right.

last year

last modified: last year

I have a 10' 3" wide by 12' 1" long bathroom that I am struggling to redesign. A catastrophic pipe leak has led me to having to tear out the ceiling below this bathroom and push a renovation forward that was truly years down the road. Everything can be moved (shower, toilet, etc.).

I am struggling to reposition things due to the windows. The large window in the back of the bathroom is 47"x47", 33" from the right wall, and 32" off the floor. The small window in the current shower is 24" wide, 47" tall, and 34" off the back wall. I've attached pictures so you can can an idea of what I'm working with.

I am trying to place a free standing tub, large walk in shower, 80" vanity, and toilet in this bathroom. There should be ample space, but with the windows placement is difficult. I even thought of making the back half of the room a wet-room, I am open to any design!

I'd love a little privacy for the toilet (such as a half-wall). The current closet to the right of the entrance can go, and I was thinking of changing the door to a pocket door for a larger footprint. No need to keep the bidet.

Please excuse the mess and calamity in the pictures; this all happened very suddenly. Thank you all for any advice!

I don't think jamming a free standing tub in a minimal space is worth the aggravation of maintenance. I'd create the deck, drop the tub in and use the deck as the seat inside the shower.

You’ll get more help if you draw a floor plan with measurements. Sorry you had a leak!

The plumbing below the bathroom is exposed due to pipe leak and ceiling falling. I have a friend who is a plumber and willing to move plumbing and hot water lines for little cost. So, shower, tub, and toilet can be moved to just about anywhere.

Here are two layouts to consider.

The problem location is for the toilet/bidet

There is some room to add a tall linen closet if required

It looks your door opens onto a bumped out piece of wall - what are the dimensions of that? Can you post more detailed dimensions with window sizes and locations etc.? I am sure that all the brilliant people can give you something great!

Is the rounded corner in the shower a match to the outside structure or can it be squared off?

The first question is are the exterior walls curved? No ? ......do you NEED a tub?

Hey everyone! Sorry for the delay. You guys made me realize I have the dimensions wrong on the entrance to the bathroom. When facing the door from inside the bathroom, the door opening is 59 inches from the right wall (30 inch opening). I've attached a floor plan Ive come up with, you can tell me what's wrong with it! The thick wall between the toilet and vanity is for built in shelves. The tub is 60" long, vanity is 84".

Exterior wall is NOT curved. The interior curve will be removed during demo.
