Reinstating original bathroom layout help needed

5 years ago

I have downsized from a 5 bed 3 bath roomed house to a 2.5 bed house with one bathroom (bath and walk in shower and toilet combined). because of the traffic of family in the morning I would like to reinstate the original bathroom bounderies and put in an over bath shower, sink and toilet and have aother separate toilet as it used to be originally. There is one problem I might have a sloping ceiling on the outside wall - also my son in 6 foot 6 inches! I am attaching a floor plan from the house next door so that you can see how it used to be and what I am thinking of. Any ideas for the layout please?

Lastly does anyone have any idea of cost for this work?

Picture one my house and picture two the original layout.

Hi, bumping your question

If you're definitely making the reception room a bedroom (and a loft conversion is out) is it worth looking at putting the wc behind the stairs in the hall instead?

How do you intend using the 3rd bedroom out of interest?

Help needed with Bathroom layout

Personally I would move the bath over to the right and put the loo to the left of the bath. (the soil pipe can run to the left to the wall with the main stack). That way you can have a larger shower and/or have the entrance to the shower facing the loo so it doesn’t clash with the door to the room. The current design looks good in terms of symmetry but wastes the corner spaces, personally I would prioritise a bigger shower or more central floor space over symmetry. Also those corner spaces are going to be pretty difficult to clean! I would also look into re hanging the door to open against the cupboard or perhaps even outwards onto the landing. No issues with loo next to bath, just best to avoid loo staring at the door!

That is super useful thank you. I might think about putting the washing machines into the utility room, moving the bathroom into that space then using the bathroom space as a place to take off shoes/store coats etc. It’s great to see a different perspective so I really appreciate you taking the time to do the drawing.

Would it be possible to move the door so you could gave a shower tray on the 120cm wall? Then you'd have plenty of room for the toilet and basin/vanity on the 170cm wall.

The third bedroom will be a spare for elderly parents. Yes that is where the toilet used to be (behind stairs) so I think it should be simple. I am more concerned about where to put the bath with a shower over it as the wall on the window side slopes and I want to be able to get a toilet and sink in too. Do you think it will be big enough once I have taken off the new toilet space?

I'm not sure that you could regain that space where the existing bathroom door is (assume you're looking to do this as the bathroom is slightly longer for a bedroom?) as the door would open straight onto the stairs. A bed should just about fit in the existing bed 3. I'd just leave the bathroom where it is and add the downstairs wc. I assume a shower fits in the existing bathroom?

It used to be a bathroom and separate toilet (as the second plan which is the house next door and has the original layout) and I want to put it back to how it was. It is not going to be a bedroom. I cannot put in a toilet downstairs as there is not room. There is a cupboard but it is the only storage in the house so I cannot get rid of it and it opens into the reception room anyway.
