Extra bathroom from the bedroom or storage room after all?

Hmm, we already talked about the living room. There is actually enough storage space (large utility room, too large pantry), although I find the ground floor suboptimal in terms of the divided area. It will come down to the office on the upper floor being reduced in size and the hallway enlarged so that the door to the large bathroom can still be installed. Then a door to the extra bathroom from the bedroom, but you will still have a problem placing the bed.

That is no longer an issue, I thought the project involved the renovation of an existing property.

I think you didn’t read properly, this is not about a renovation measure, but about an official offer from the contractor to convert the storage room into an extra bathroom for 3000,-. To be fair, I have to say that we are procuring the sanitary fixtures ourselves. I would like to list your items and quickly share my first thoughts on their storage:

- vacuum cleaner (office behind door/closet etc. or utility room - big enough)
- ironing board (utility room)
- drying rack (utility room)
- laundry baskets (utility room)
- tools (garage and shed, both large)
- supplies (food/drink crates/wine/pet food) (pantry)
- craft supplies/gift wrap (utility room, guest room will surely also offer a small compartment in the closet/dresser)
- seasonal decorations (we have lots of Christmas stuff) (utility room, attic)
- electrical distributors/cables??? (utility room)
- file folders (office)
- garden/work clothes/shoes (garage, shed or hallway on ground floor e.g. for shoes)
- photo albums and personal keepsakes (living room)
- children’s clothes and baby items (e.g. stroller/bathtub/potty), if more children are planned (attic)
- tile remnants (garage or shed)
- current paint leftovers (if no frost-free room is available) (garage or shed)
- and then of course the many things you keep for the time being...

Are these all things you would store in a storage room? Oh dear :)

As last time, the drawn-in furniture is not ours. The architect entered it as an example :)
So the bed should not be placed like that.

Why? What would you change? No other option? In an emergency, we thought about integrating the shower from the extra bathroom as a niche in the large bathroom. Then the large bathroom automatically becomes smaller, the extra bathroom larger, and you avoid the problem with the door.

Our living room is currently this size and completely sufficient. Everyone has their own opinions... We don't like a large one because it wastes a lot of space that we believe is unnecessary. Keyword here is dining area. Especially if you have a large kitchen.
And if you want a guest room downstairs and a larger utility room, then all of that has to fit somewhere if you don't want or can't have a 250sqm house.


But that's what this is about... It also says that the access should be from the bedroom.
hhhhmmmm...
