Hello everyone,
to keep it short: What do you think about having a bathtub (with whirlpool function) in the bedroom?
Since we are renovating and have to work around the load-bearing walls, the bathroom can’t be large enough to comfortably fit a shower, bathtub, toilet, and double vanity. Because the adjacent master bedroom is very spacious, I have been considering placing the bathtub there.
The advantage is more space in the bathroom. Some questions I have are: Do I still need the rest of the bathroom if I take baths? How will it look visually? Will the humidity cause any problems?
Looking forward to your opinions!

In the same way, you could argue against almost everything parents choose to have (What if the 17-year-old wants to seduce a one-night stand in the waterbed? What if the teenage daughter wants to drive the second car? What if the kids want to watch their Disney movies on the 75" TV?) Sometimes the arguments made here are really far-fetched, sorry. This is not about a piece of furniture.

And just because you parents have a bathtub in the bedroom, that doesn’t mean the kids have the right to use it whenever they want. Nice!

They should take a shower or go to the swimming pool. Well, I’m not the family counselor here, but I really wonder why people have children at all. Even the choice of words makes you think.
The area is spacious, but the positioning of the doors makes it difficult to use efficiently.
This was our original plan. Then I became unsure whether the bathroom might be too small compared to the bedroom.
Swapping the rooms is not an option due to the circulation routes.

I personally don’t find the bathroom too small for the bathtub. Is the area in front of the bathroom and bedroom a hallway? If so, does the wall between the hallway and bathroom already exist? If the wall is not yet built, I would create a niche for the shower in this wall facing the lower part of the plan, which would make the bathtub area a bit more spacious.

Even the choice of words invites reflection.Dear ypg,
I have two wonderful daughters, a third child on the way, and a fourth or fifth is not out of the question. Unlike you, I seem to be the "family type," and like most parents, I work incredibly hard to give my "offspring" a wonderful childhood full of love and without material hardship.
Nevertheless—or perhaps because of this—I believe that children also need boundaries. If one of my children ever had the unbelievably foolish idea of entering our bedroom at night after a night out at a club to enjoy a bath there, I would make those boundaries very clear to them! You can have your own opinion about that, but it doesn’t make your "argument" any more valid.
So before you next consider responding to me with strange personal insinuations, especially regarding my parenting, you might want to have another cup of coffee before hitting the reply button.
