ᐅ Bathroom design for a single-family home – master bathroom

We are currently planning the master bathroom, which doesn’t need to be a large spa-like area but rather a functional space. We would like to have a bathtub measuring 180x75cm (71x30 inches) because my husband is over 1.90m (6 ft 3 in) tall. In addition, we have planned a walk-in shower with floor-level access measuring 120x90cm (47x35 inches) with a glass partition. My husband would also like either a double vanity or two individual sinks placed side by side—definitely two basins in total. The waste pipes for drainage will run at the spot marked with the red dot. Ideally, the toilet would be located on that side, otherwise we would need to install considerably thick pipes into the floor.

The floor plan shows the builder’s proposal. We have tried several other versions but haven’t yet found the perfect solution. We would also like to have some storage space for a cabinet, which doesn’t need to be very large, since we plan to install storage units beneath the sinks, but this is missing in the current layouts. Maybe someone has a suggestion.

Thank you in advance :-)

Why have a double vanity if there’s no risk of having to share the bathroom with children? You want to accommodate quite large fixtures.

Yes, the double vanity wouldn’t be a priority for me either, but so far I haven’t been able to convince my husband to leave it out.

Is he going to clean the bathroom? 😎
What are his reasons?

I tend to prefer idea 1, with a freestanding tub placed centrally under the window. The room is spacious enough that the tub could be positioned far enough from the wall to allow cleaning behind it.

No rational reasons. It’s always been that way, you can get ready at the same time... nothing you would consider reasonable from a logical point of view ;-)
