My view is its too long, will look impressive for visitors but form over function Not a fan of the toilet right next to the bath in the en-suite. Imagine using it when the mrs is relaxing in the tub. Re: Please review our first custom floorplan 16Mar 20, 2021 9:32 pm I agree with the toilet situation. For such a large house I'd want separate toilets and a powder room. Are you planning on having built in robes in beds 2 and 3? There is nothing marked currently.

For such a large house I'd want separate toilets and a powder room. Are you planning on having built in robes in beds 2 and 3? There is nothing marked currently. We've never really been too concerned with having a separate room for the toilet in the ensuite, a bit more separation from the bath perhaps, but not really sure how to lay it out. A powder room I could agree would probably be ideal, but we've struggled to find a way to make it fit. We definitely want a toilet in the kids section of the house, and we don't want to add yet another toilet just for the sake of having a powder room. At the end of the day the house still has 3 fully functioning bathrooms to choose from. Re: Please review our first custom floorplan 18Mar 20, 2021 9:38 pm chippy I agree with the toilet situation.

We will also be fitting out all robes ourselves after handover so we've left them out.

Depending on what sort of cornice you are having you may need to look at providing a bulkhead or soffit where you are putting the robes. Unless you are happy not running them to the ceiling.

Ensuite - rotate shower 90 deg and place toilet on wall closest to bedroom. Otherwise, do you really need 2x freestanding bathtubs in the house? Get rid of one and you have a whole lot more room to place the toilet. Master bedroom - your door is in a poor location and allows view of bed from whole living/kitchen space. Consider straightening wall and placing door on wall inline with ensuite wall. Laundry - do you need to entries?? Wardrobes - please consider getting the shells installed at build so they don't look like additions later. You can still plan to do the internal fit-out later 2 6536 So still no slab and apparently the concreter cancelled. Here come the delays... apparently things haven't recovered quite as much as I thought. I've been told maybe next… 8 31887 i thought the flipped plan initially but bec i want narrow pathway from entry to dining (dont like bend), also cannot fit the… 7 17590 |
