Need help with Small Bathroom please.

Hi, Would like to change the layout of our small bathroom. Its a typical 3 - bed modern detached house, the bathroom is only 2005 x 1950 cms. Because I have severe forms of Arthritis we had the bath taken out 8 years ago and had a shower cubicle installed, along with a new toilet and a wall hung basin, all good quality fittings. I was not able to get over the side of the bath apart from not being able to sit in it. However, in the last few years I have had 2 knee and 1 hip replacement, The main reason for changing the bathroom now though is to put value back back into the property i.e. making the house appeal to a wider range of buyers, (we may sell in a year or two). We have done everything else to the house.

The floor would come up and was thinking of a combination unit of w.c. and basin which would be fitted to the right of the picture, next to soil stack, a sliding door instead of the present opening one and then a 1500 mm bath would go on the left. These drawings are not to scale of course and are quite rough, I have done a scale drawing and a bath would fit. There is presently a lot of unused space, but ........

do you think its not a great idea to cram so much into a small space as this? can it be done do you think?

And if there are any fitters who could estimate a ball park cost for the conversion (not including the bath and combination unit ) I would be extremely grateful


Thanks
