Do we have room for a walk in shower and bath tub?

We would like to get our bathroom completely redesigned. In an ideal world we would love to have a free standing shower and bath tub but we're not sure wether we have the room for this.
We need some storage for towels and toiletries etc as we do not have an airing cupboard.
We are going to completely gut the bathroom and can move piping around.
I have attached a couple of photos of our current bathroom and a drawing to show its size.
We really like modern bathrooms and the rest of our house is decorated in Scandinavian style. I will attach a few images of the style we like.
Any thoughts would be much appreciated : )

Comments (18)I'm another who thinks replace the bath rather than spend good money after bad. Unless you're usually a fan of 70s/retro decor I think you will always hate it and no wall colour will get away from that. If you can get a plumber to fit a new bath and taps, and diy removing the tiles and retiling I don't think it would cost much more than all the plywood, paint and tools you are planning....See MoreBathtub woes! Any advice appreciated!
Comments (5)Silicone does need raking out and replacing every couple of years because it does discolour and som cleaners do break it down. The fact you have had to replace yours is not alarming and you should expect to do it again in another couple of years but you shouldn’t have to retile...See MoreAwkward en-suite with soak tub - design dilemma
Comments (0)Hello everyone, I have two areas I would like some advice on please. The wall behind new sink/existing over stairs cupboard wall ( I’ve put big red arrows on the photo) Shower enclosure style/design The idea for the space. 1200 x 800 shower tray - Immediately on the left as you open the door. (Right hinged door) Omni Soak Tub - Immediately on right - Just fitting over stair wedge! we will be sitting it on a small platform in the corner. Quartz top around top of tub edge and running into the cupboard base ( right in the corner of room) not sure on bath panel yet. W/Mount vanity - attached to existing wall in question ( see photo with red arrows on) W/C with concealed cistern beside shower tray Rad in-between WC & Vanity I have created a very basic plan on a kitchen CAD software. see attached photos Point 1. Should I keep the wall in place and install a mirror there ? Would allow for shelving or storage unit in the space of existing cupboard Or knock down the wall to open the space up to alternative design/storage ideas. Wall mounted mirror? and storage. I would like to keep some space for my head to rest when soaking in the tub, If I can manage to get the bath height to tie in with cupboard height & basin height ( Wow there are so many things to consider) Point 2 . Due to an awkward stair case the access to upstairs of the house is limited - Any glass shower screen needs to fit through a bedroom window. ( We just managed to get wardrobe sliding doors 915mm x 2200mm in the window - with minimal packaging on it) My Husbands ideas is to build a full height wall on the 1200mm shower wall, closest to WC position & leave the 800 end open as walk in shower( which will actually be 675mm due to kick in the wall) or maybe a diverter panel. ( I fear this might feel a bit over powering) I think a half wall & then the largest piece of glass we can fit through the window. If we build the wall the same depth as the concealed cistern this would add storage for toilet paper either side of cistern. This idea also keeps more glazing in the space. Oh i forgot to mention there is no window in the space! Any comments, ideas, feedback is very much appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time and ideas x Before we started Basin will be on this wall to left. knock top half out or not? 80cm tray and cistern on this wall 1200 shower wall Wc in corner Over stairs - soak tub here Rad on this wall Rough plan and rough dims...See More
