Backup ideas for master bedroom layout
Ok, so a little argument over the weekend about the master bedroom layout, even though hubby's been looking at the drawings for as long as I have, so to say not sure it's going to work when they're just about ready to paint the walls is frankly a little too late... the room is long (5300) and narrow (3800), granted not ideal and should have been more square... hind sight is a great thing :/ but this is what we've got to work with and it's too late (or very costly) to change anything (doorway, electricals, etc) now... the king size (say 2200 long x 2000 wide) bed is to go along the narrower 3800 wall under a 2400 wide highlight window leaving approx 900 on each side, and yes the end of the bed will be slightly in front of the doorway (1200 CSD) to the ensuite, but judging by the photos below it shouldn't be that bad... do I get any backup on this?
P.S. also keen to get some ideas on how to furnish the rest of the room (some kind of second zone maybe?) thinking some sort of seating, bench, chaise, etc?... there's provision for a tv in the 'bottom-left' corner, possibly over a chest of drawers, tallboy, etc or wall hung... and the bulkhead at the 'bottom' is the opening to the WIR
Thanks ;)

Help with layout of master bedroom/wir/ensuite
Comments (18)Love those ideas thanks Pazz. Thanks for your time on it. There is a window along the wall I have marked at 4m. However there are no windows along the wall marked 7mtr, as we are right up close to the neighbours. All natural light will only be from either end of the rooms (ensuite and other end) I like your ideas there and it's definitely a start. I wonder if there is a way to have light from the courtyard come through to the walk in robe and bedroom. I am imagining being able to see the courtyard from the bedroom but can't quite figure out how that could work? I had thought of having the walk in robe up the 4m end, but this would then limit any natural light coming in from that window. I do love what you have suggested with widening the room and doing away with the closed off lobby. Thanks again for taking time to look at this for me....See MoreMaster bedroom + Ensuite - Brain storming ideas HELP
Comments (24)We intend to stay in our master upstairs for sometime and move down when we feel comfortable OR move them both into the guest bedroom which is opposite the new master. We originally had our master suite upstairs with the boys room down stairs, however we think it's safer this way when they are younger. The 1st floor will be their domain, with their own kitchenette, bathroom, study, living and deck... so they will never have to leave home 😉 I think I have drawn up 300 different options 🤦♀️ Does your huaband and his Identicial twin have an amazing bond?

Comments (5)my suggestion has an ens and wiw and uses the old bedroom door for a linen cupboard, although the toilet could be placed at either end to be closer to the original sewerage, this arrangement allows for more privacy for the toilet, more standing room near the shower, wall space for a towel rail and room in teh wiw for a chest of drawers..the vanity is over 2m long with cabinet under the (one or twin) sinks and open shelves next to the toilet for towels .. and, while you're adding the new ens, it would be worthwhile to plan the new access to the kitchen and new laundry...See Moremaster bedroom new layout

I don't think hubby minds much which wall it's on but he thinks the end of the bed in front of the ensuite opening will create an access issue, but I believe 800-900 is enough space to walk through, isn't it?
Haha... yes I did the same thing :) though the bed here looks probably a little narrower than it should be...
And yes, the entrance to the bedroom is at the 'bottom' righthand side (sort of between the room & the WIR) - 10 years ago
