Hello everyone,
In a bungalow from 2015 that I might buy, there is a totally poorly planned bathroom (I already posted this in the wrong subforum before, sorry...)

The floor area is about 2m by 4m. Unfortunately, it was planned without a toilet, but the connections are supposed to be located at the extension of the bathtub at the bottom left (under the tiles). The washbasin is suitable for a guest WC, but not for a main bathroom. In that area, the wall was built with 17.5 cm calcium silicate bricks (I think to bring the drain in). All other walls are built with 11.5 cm calcium silicate bricks.
My idea now is to accommodate a toilet and a walk-in shower at the lower front side, separated by a frosted glass wall. The room width of 1.93 should barely allow that, right? The bathtub will be removed, and a washbasin as a corner solution in the shower corner.
The 17.5 cm brick of the current washbasin will be knocked down and aligned flush with the wall. The door will be removed and replaced with a sliding door.
What worries me are the connections; I know that I am not allowed to chase drainage pipes into the 11.5 cm calcium silicate brick walls. So the screed must be removed and everything somehow newly installed on/in the floor slab?
I have budgeted €20,000 for the renovation - but I am very unsure if that will be enough.
I look forward to any ideas or advice on how best to approach the project.
