No, it also works from the bedroom.

Am I missing something here? You can only access the walk-in closet directly through the bathroom, right? Or is there another way through?

Oh yes, I actually overlooked that, thank you very much 🙂

I would leave out the door between the kitchen and the utility room. You can get to the hallway just as quickly.
The hallway will be quite dark at both ends. Compared to the rest of the house, I find the entrance area too large.
The living room and dining room feel quite narrow and elongated.
The corners in children’s rooms 1 and 2 are barely or not at all usable and seem to exist only to make the rooms the same size. Both children’s rooms would be easier to furnish if the wall was straight—even if that meant one room would have one square meter less.
Try drawing in your furniture. It would also be interesting to see how the furniture would fit.
The staircase will probably be quite tight, and when going down, you always end up facing a wall.
Overall, it looks very amateurish and like just a series of rooms lined up.
A professional architect can do much better.

I would generally advise against having two entrances to the bathroom. A teenager goes in, locks both doors, but only opens one when leaving...

As a design concept for the house, I would suggest including another children's bathroom on the upper floor and making the master bathroom accessible only through the walk-in closet. So from the hallway into the walk-in closet, and then either into the bedroom or the bathroom. If the children go through my walk-in closet to use my bathtub, that doesn’t bother me, and guests don’t need to go there.

The passage from the bedroom to the walk-in closet is, by the way, also a joke. At most, only 80cm (31.5 inches) remain in the end. This often results in bumped elbows. And you definitely can’t carry a laundry basket through there.
