Looking at that mess, you might want to show the entire plan.

Where did the plan come from?

Custom build or builder special?

You never responded to this thread: https://www.houzz.com/discussions/6571338/design-dilemma-entryway

How was that resolved? Maybe answer in that thread.

FWIW, here's how our architect's design for the primary suite:

In all the new homes we built--for ourselves and as a registered new home builder--we've never had the walk-through-the-closet-setup that endlessly shows up on Houzz.

Are you able to visualize the size of the bedroom? Here I flipped the bed to the opposite wall and you still have 5 or so feet between.

I also see a bathroom on that left wall. I'd want a buffer between it and the bedroom.

I'll never understand why anyone would want a closet bigger than a bathroom and the same size as a bedroom. There is a lot of wasted space in that closet.

Why the 2 makeup areas?

The OP already stated that there wasn't supposed to be 2 makeup areas.

How high are your ceilings? If you have 9ft plus ceilings, I wouldn't build a custom house and use 6'7" tall doors. Also if you plan to stay long term into retirement, you might want to consider 36" wide doors. I used all 36" x 96" interior doors when I built in 2021.

Also that small section of plan you show seems to be very short on windows.

Closets should be placed in interior spaces, so you can have living spaces on exterior walls to maximize light and views into the house. I think that whole area will be a bit basement-like, even though you have what look like skylights. Skylights do not replace the feeling you get of being able to see out of windows.

I would want to move the toilet room so it isn't sharing a wall with the bedroom area. You will hear it flush at night and maybe even pee sounds if you have a standard 4" wall with no soundproofing/insulation.

This is what we did with our master suite.

Also, if that is a tray ceiling in the master bedroom ... I wouldn't do it! Lazy way of adding interest to a space! Spec builders love to add all types of ceiling stuff to make a space look "high" end, but it just adds visual clutter. All it does is complicated placement of furniture, lighting, etc. People never know how to paint them either! Why pay for higher ceilings and then lower part of it?

I rather like that little spot by the shower for, not makeup, but first for your robe and towel, extra bath linens, soap and hair care and razor, then drying off, maybe some body lotion, robe, and slippers. Without being in anyone's way by the closet or vanity.

Michelle K - Based upon this thread and the thread concerning the entryway, I would recommend starting over with a competent local architect that can work with you to design a home for you that meets your needs and fits your site that is not a "mess".

Some houses are 'forever homes' not because they meet the owner's needs over the years, but because the design is so bad no one will buy it.

WOW a bit of a mess for sure . At least get a good bath designer to work with the architect .IMO toilet rooms are the stupidest thing inside a main bath . No one should be using the toilet while anyone else is in the bathroom. The closet needs a rework and where is the bedroom and NEVER a trip through the bathroom to the closet.

More of the floor plan, and probably front elevation, to understand why the Closet is bumped out on front, and no windows on the front elevation (assume front per plan on other thread), and skylights/vault suggest a single slope roof in combination with that Closet bumpout. Also, might be opportunity to adjust the laundry by flipping it's door/closet which will allows the shower to take the Makeup area spot. The shower is a bit strange to begin with by being 7' deep in the wrong direction based on the showerhead location.

Post and run.

Haha, Mark, they probably didn't like the feedback.

This type of bad news is best heard before spending half a million dollars.

True -- and this thread contains some superior advice.

There sure isn't much natural light coming into any of the spaces.

Ya, but who cares about natural light?

Personally , I would NEVER want toe walk through a bathroom to get to my closet.

Also, the toilet room is too small. Disregarding the issue of aging in place, it would be difficult to use if some one had to use crutches because of a broken bone. Accidents happen, and a short term disability should be considered when designing spaces.
