Think about whether you'll be able to clean around it too. We moved into a house with a roll top freestanding bath crammed across the whole width of the bathroom, and with a shower cubicle next to it on one wall and a basin on the other. It's virtually impossible to clean around and under it, especially the back corners.

We are lucky enough to have an actual Spa. Hand constructed obviously given the nature of what i do for a living. It sits in a corner of our garden only a hop from our back door. We have a two stage raised deck with sunken hot tub, a Sauna, fridge freezer with ice dispenser for entertaining etc. The whole thing has a tile and glass roof with pine & full length glass doors. Oh yep, and a Chiminea with a chimney! It also has a cat flap, and the cat totally thinks it's her own room, she scowls as soon as you open the door and walk in!

whirligig, yeah.. ive been thinking the same thing like u did.. im dying and i love it too but i know it looks like too crowd from my ceiling because I still have put the LED light on the ceiling.. but however i still want to put something above my dining table becuz i when stand on my dining table, it looks empty and I feel missing someone.. lolzz xD thank you again for your comment..

Just be aware (and you may know this already), drum kits upstairs can be very difficult for those sitting downstairs. I'm not talking about the general drumming noise but the base pedal. When our kids are using it upstairs it sounds like they are going to come straight through the ceiling. We have sold up and have bought a house with concrete floors. On other subject, size of bedrooms is just as important to some people as number of bedrooms. I would knock through. Alternatively, is there room for a platform bed/mezzanine?
