Wow thanks Devyra they're both designs I wouldn't have even thought about before! And thanks for all the example photos. I really like your first option, it looks so spacious and manages to keep all 3 windows, which I just didn't think was possible. I'll have a look at measurements to see if a shower unit could squeeze next to the big window, I think my initial measurements only give it 65cm that side but slightly more 95cm perhaps the other side where the bath currently is

Good morning, you can always brick up a window if it’s in your way. I did that and kept the biggest one, very little loss of light due to placing a mirror to reflect the light from the window.

Great idea thanks Ann. Probably not too pricey either, we need someone with enough building skills to knock through anyway

@FRNM brand I'd be interested in a quick sketch if you're able, I'm not totally sure which walls you're meaning. I'm feeling really positive about my project now, thanks everyone!

Hello again, if you do block a window, on the outside think about getting your builder to make a UPVC cover over the new brickwork so you won‘t notice a diffenence in the bricks, it won’t stand out. Mine was done in the 1980’s by a handy man and still looks good today..

Oh thanks @Ann Jones would you have any pics of yours? So you mean like a fake window from the outside? It's actually at the side of the house and wouldn't be super visible, plus we might render one day

Hi, i wou send you a photo but it would have to be from down the garden due to where it is and would not show any detail as it blends in. If I remember correctly because the window was recessed both inside and out he left the window frame in place including glass, on the inside he cut the window sill flush with wall. Next used fibre glass padding for warmth before he bricks up on window sill to block the gap, then plastered. Outside cut and glued UPVC slats onto the window frame put thin slats all round the edge to give it a ”frame” when you look at it from outside, the edges were sealed to make it waterproof, the sealant is still white and blends in with the stucco. Its 40 years since this was done and no problems. Hope this helps you it was a cheap quick way of hiding the window. please ask if i can help with anything else. Ann

If you brick one of the window the best option is the previous loo window

As the left wall from the big window is shorter Its not ideal to place a shower here as previous sugestion said to place shower in the current bathub place

So option C, you rotate the current bathub like my option B and place the shower side by side of the bathub where the brick up window is, this layout result moving the toilet to the bottom right corner of bathroom facing the bathub then one sink on the side of toilet, the pro of this layout is bathub and shower feels less cramped but the con is less space for sink storage and shower faced straight to bathroom door

Option D, preserve the original bathroom door and use the previous loo space as shower, if you keep the bathub like original position you either need to place the toilet on the left wall between new shower and bathub or on bottom right corner straight to bathroom door (i don't personally suggest this layout but if you like you can) the pro of this layout is this might be the cheapest option but lack storage and smaller bath compared other layout

Option c all the way, makes so much sense! You're so good at this! I've been looking at it off and on for 3yrs and I've somehow not thought of most of these options 😂 thanks so much @Devyra Atelier

Hello, I find these things are a bit like puzzles: keep moving them about until you see the picture that you like. If you know the fixtures that you want to use, that that would me even better.

To avoid moving the soil stack

Snap!! Put shelving unit or towel rail in corner as only 65cm between corner and big window so shower can't go right up to it. Sharr sorry husband is Northern Irish 😂

Thanks @Smart Design Hub I've gone low tech with paper templates to move around too! Definitely need to look at fittings we like too. Thanks for taking the time, really like those designs. Worth thinking about cost of moving pipes etc too thanks @Sarah L

Just a thought, is there any reason why you can’t claim back the square metre or so from the original layout, and have the door open directly from the landing?

Not really no @chloeloves, just thought it might be pricier to have a totally new doorway added, so imagined that we'd keep one or other of the two we have. But I think where it's been placed it kinda provides a wall for the end of the shower, whichever side the shower goes on. But yeah I don't want to waste any space, especially given that we have so many windows taking up wall space for things like towel rails and mirrors etc
