En-suite to walk in wardrobe or vice versa

Hi All
We are improving our house which includes opening up space off the master bedroom which is big enough for two rooms but they would need to be accessed sequentially. My question is would it be better to walk through the walk in wardrobe to to the en-suite or through the en-suite to the walk in wardrobe. What is normal? what is preferred? The current plans are for the former as you can see but there are advantages to us of switching if it’s sensible.

Adding en-suite and walk in wardrobe to bedroom
Comments (2)We did both and I agree with the other comment-keep the en suite above a bathroom if possible as it's a nightmare to reorder pipes etc otherwise. For fitted wardrobes, we (personally) found the usual companies absolutely useful and incredibly expensive. We had an idea of what we wanted and went for a private joiner-he undercut by half so it totalled £2700 for the wardrobes (built in under attic hanging space, full length wardrobe, 2 oddly shaped cupboards, 2 waist height cupboards, chest of drawers with seat & bedside tables.). Had been quoted 8K by one well known company! Good luck!x...See MoreWalk in wardrobe dilemma
Comments (16)Yes, the second pic is how it is now, but it doesn't work. There's no wall for a dressing table (it's currently half in front of the window but blocks wardrobe access), and my husband would like a tv in a normal place, currently on the window wall right next to the head of the bed, so barely watchable. The wardrobes are ok, but that's the only storage we have and they need improving if nothing else. I just feel there's so many 'little' things wrong I'd like to find a wider solution.

Comments (2)Hello Leesh, It sounds like you rather like the idea of an en-suite and so I would perhaps suggest you go with it, rather than do one thing and then re-do it later. You mention the house has one single loo.. So would this mean presumably that you would also then situate a loo downstairs? If so perhaps you might consider turning the loo into a small wet room style shower room.. A wall hung loo and small sink would give you enough room for a small shower room fully tanked of course as they are lovely. If there is a bathroom with bath for example elsewhere on the upper levels then it could be one way of dealing with this smaller space.. Alternatively you may prefer to have a walk in closet.. Mind you.. If the bedroom is large enough you may be able to incorporate a walk in closet in the room itself.. I'm elaborating on your initial dilemma, but it may help you to decide just what you need and where exactly.. : ))...See MoreDoor suggestions for our new walk-in wardrobe/en-suite
Comments (2)I vote for pocket doors too - they always look elegant and shouldn't be noisy so long as you use quality fittings....See Moresarh123
