can someone please show me a floor plan to fit a shower , toilet and a basin in 1.8m X 0.8m ?

door can be opened outside and is available on the shorter side.

I can slightly increase the shorter side but not much space available

Something like this might work, though it would obviously be a bit shorter. If it was a wet room, you could overlap the sink with the shower, and it would feel more spacious.

Thank you, but my door is on the shorter size , not the longer side, will there still be a space?

What size shower will fit in my bathroom

Going by the plan above, i'm a little confused. Clearly the sliding door faces to the wall on the right, therefore, it is the length of the shower that should be in question not the width. The sink at 900mm is far too large for the bathroom. Either, have the stud wall at one end of the shower or the other, reduce the size of the sink and have room for the toiletries. You can still fit in a 900 wide shower, it makes no odds if it's 900 or 800. It's the length that's the problem. Alternatively the last option would be to have the 800mm wide shower with the 1200mm length and have the back wall built with niches for toiletries. These will however be constantly covered in water due to the shower head needing to be attached to that wall not the glass sliding doors as in the given illustration. So, better to go for option one or two with the wall at one end or the other. Personally i like the wall at the end near the sink it gives more of an illusion of privacy.

(Un)fortunately the understairs space is not available for this, for two reasons: A) Electricity supply terminates in there; water too close to that isn‘t particularly liked by regs. B) It’s our wine cellar :-) and yes the lintel/door move is planned as well already - kudos for spotting ...

Boxed in boiler and toilet next to the window.

Thanks @rinq and @Maths Wife, there are definitely a lot of things to think about, although it looks like there is a general consensus going on over some of the areas like toilet/boiler etc. I need to check in with the plumber on putting the boiler on the left of the window, as you can see from @rinq plan there is a new wall going on the outside and this may cause issues with required regs distances from windows etc. I like the idea of a wooden counter for the bowls, and carrying this into the alcove would be a neat idea. Im going to change the storage/cupboard from double doors to just one sliding door, with a walk in area and shelves either side. As the two doors are a nightmare. Thanks EVERYONE for the comments and feedback, its really helped.

Where does a downstairs shower/toilet room fit?

Pannacotta - Regarding using understairs for the toilet. I have had 3 contractors visits and had quotes of around £4k. The main problem is because it's in the middle, they will have to use a macerator linked to the upstairs toilet and out through the side by the kitchen side door. That was the best routing advice instead of digging through the dining floor area on the ground floor, which is concrete and hard laminate floor etc. Cost is around £6k for new front room work. i.e. Options A/B/C. Good point about shower vs utility. It will be nice to have more ideas. Thanks a lot. OnePlan - Great plan and idea thanks. I think option C is cool. But, as you said, it means people going through my office to use the loo. We can't always win, can we! I was thinking Option B will prevent that, but having 2 doors on either side leading to the toilet/shower in a small space, looks a bit clumsy to me! What do you think about Options C without a shower, so having the other half of the wall as bookshelf or storage or any other design to support use for office, etc OR, if it's ensuite with shower, we could still use about 1/3 (on the LHS) of the wall backing dining as bookshelf or storage, etc Would a shower in Option A/B/C add value to the house i.e. interest future buyers, that maybe 10 years down the line LOL?

Toilets (short projection) are normally around 600mm. Some of the ones with concealed cisterns don’t project as far but then obviously you need space to conceal the cistern.

It would be very difficult to get into the room or use the toilet with just a 200mm gap to the wall

That's not much bigger than a bath! It would be really tight, especially with door on short wall.

Thank you let me know, how long the minimum dimension of short wall should be if the door is on short wall?

At least 1200mm for 600mm clearance in front of short projection toilet.

Don’t buy a small basin that’s too shallow, or water will bounce out of it when you turn on the tap. Go for a deeper design.

Ok, well I’d do this (obviously 2nd pic). Yours isn’t as long so you’d need to go for a smaller sink or a corner one. You can also get the combined loo and sink units which should fit or they even do loo’s with a sink on top. Personally I’d go for either of the first options though. A large mirror will make it feel bigger

It may also be possible to have a concealed cistern, so have a 100mm stud wall and continue that the Length of the wall so you have a niche in the shower for shampoo etc.

You’re probably best speaking to a plumber. I spent days searching for a short cistern and a weird size shower tray which my plumber was able to source very easily.
