From a resale point of view, I think you definitely need a double vanity in the main ensuite.
Also agree with others about flipping bedroom 3.

Thanks a lot, already requested that as I think it was missed in the plan.

One thing I would look at is a laundry chute drop to cupboard on ground floor ideally in laundry, depending on location. Four bedrooms a lot of towels linen and dirty clothes to carry downstairs . Good resale adding value item. Small loss of space low cost.

Great idea, added a chute by reducing Ens2 shower as it is currently 1.8m. So I will have a door for the chute on the hallway.

Your hallway length is okay because it's a good width. But I would suggest bringing the master bedroom double doors forward, in line with the hallway linen. It will make your hallway shorter, and will also make your master suite feel even bigger.

By doing that, will it make a dark hole inside the master when we close the door to sleep?

Or it will be more privacy?
Any decor ideas for that gap after closing the master bedroom door?

I just check and think that the hallway is 1.3m, which allow 1.2m door or double door.

I think it will definitely give the room more privacy to have the doors set back. It will make the bedroom feel like it has a foyer, so it will feel more grand.

You could also consider moving the ensuite door into the WIR so that you have less visible doors in your room. This would give you space for a wider double vanity unit. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅
