best layout for long thin bedroom
We are hoping to put an en-suite in our long thin bedroom on a house we have just purchased. Do you think this is possible?
Thanks in advance

Bedroom layout help!!
Comments (10)I agree with man about the house about the wardrobes. They look very heavy for the room and will give you more flexibility. You have plenty of walls to have wardrobes on. You have a long room so there are plenty of options. If you want me to sketch up your options please email me....See MoreMaster bedroom - built in wardrobe layout
Comments (29)Hi Laura Yes, take a peek on my home page at the project there. This is one I did for him. As the wardrobes were already fitted, I used "cubby storage which has bins for his jeans etc. There are also further boxes to store pjs etc. When it comes to using bins or boxes to store clothes, I would advise not using anything that stacks - always go for drawers or one bin/box per cubby. If you have to move one box to get to another then it becomes a bit of a trial and things tend to become untidy quickly. thanks Jill...See Morebedroom design layout
Comments (26)Entrance of 1.5m can be used for closets as well. What are the dimensions of the bathroom as shown? If you shortened the bath somewhat it would allow for a bigger balcony door You might be able to steal some space and have a 60cm walkway beyond the bed, then a 55/60cm window seat. move the tv to the right end of the desk too. I suppose it will be wall mounted? I still prefer option 1 as is, but these are your options...See MoreMore smaller bedroom or less bigger bedrooms
Comments (11)So a dormer loft conversion costs the same as a side extension? It sounds like you'll be getting more space for the side extension for the same amount of money then. Have you had a look at other bungalows down your road or area that have had extensions vs no extensions and see what they have sold for, then you can see if it's worth it but who knows what the market will be like in a couple of years time. In terms of appealing to more when selling, people probably would prefer bedrooms upstairs but if bedrooms are larger and downstairs is huge it will be more attractive to buyers ( I think ) especially if there is a large family. Lots of new builds have a bedroom downstairs so it's not unusual plus families considering a bungalow won't be looking for the norm in terms of layout so 2 bedrooms downstairs is fine. You can also ask your estate agent that sold you the bungalow, get their thoughts on what is attractive to buyers, I'm sure they'll be helpful in case you'll use them in the future :-)....See Moresharon sutton

last yearI agree that it would be nicest to have the bed near the corner window so I would put the ensuite at the back and a dressing room in the middle.
Another option would be to make bedroom 4 the ensuite from bedroom 1 and split the long thin room in to two bedrooms, with either an airing cupboard or shower room between them, depending on whether you'd rather have more bathrooms or bigger bedrooms. This would give you a master with ensuite and three more equal sized other rooms with the option of a third bathroom.
