I don't like the door swinging right towards the toilet in the original. If you can't have a sliding door you could have one of those concertina type things that are two narrow panels hinged in the middle - must be a name for it but can't think right now! Folding door maybe?!

My husband works from home on the phone constantly so we wouldnt be able to go through that room for access during work hours, but I suppose its not the end of the world if the bathroom doesnt much use. We werent planning on blocking up the door when we used the room as a master though because we envisioned it used like a powder room guests could use instead of the kids bathroom/toilet (figured ours would be a lot cleaner than theirs!). ugbug We have a sliding door into our ensuite, and the house is currently being built, so all good in Victoria at least.
