Entry into master
I want to change the entry into our master, as I prefer the bed to back onto the ensuite wall instead. A few options I can think of:
*moving entry to end of WIR but not ideal as I dont want to walk through robe (long way to ensuite) plus it is raked ceiling so external wall where window 20 is only 2m high.
* building out the bedroom like Ive drawn in red and either enter from closer to ensuite (squishing that a bit) but walking in to face a wall, will put lovely artwork there or enter from under the skylight in drawing. Any other ideas or think one option is better than others?
thank you

Advice tweaking final Floorplan
Comments (38)Sorry but I would sack the draftsman. He/shes no architect. That roof is a nightmare. I try and think about the function of each room and how you would live in it. The entrance is like a cricket pitch but no where to put the bat and ball when you are finished. You come in from the garage or entry door and you are in the middle of nowhere.. Where you going to put you shoes and jacket. And if you want to use the toilet or wash your hands went you get home you have a 20m trek through the house.?? Don't like the bedroom 1 right at the front door and the doors are all hung wrong. You are going to be walking around them all day. The ensuite is badly sized. Shower to narrow, toilet too long and no basin. You going to be opening that door with dirty hands. Think about the floor space to dry your self and dress/undress. Cavity sliders are a pain. Like you have to open them almost all the way to get through where an opening door you glide through. With cavities also you mostly have to walk into the corner of a room to get in and out (study and rumpus) where as a normal door it 1/2 a step less. Master bedroom walk-in wardrobe is dumb. Draw it on the ground, work out how your clothes will hang, and see how much room you have left. Same for the bedroom 3 and 4 wardrobes..Dumb. What were you thinking with that pantry.. It like 8 steps in then 8 out again. Pantry should be more square, have a butlers sink in it. Be the food prep area, pots dishes etc out of sight especially in an open plan place. Be light and the food perpetration area be close enough to the door so you can converse with the guests or family other wise you might as well have a maid who is not seen or heard. Bed 3 and 4 are miles away from a bathroom. The toilet is probably OK in size, just needs a bigger door. 720 you are going sideways through it. Bed 2 backs onto the shower and toilet. Which room are you going to put your little kid in. Long way from mum and dad....See MorePlease help with layout for Master WIR & Ensuite
Comments (27)the shower room is about 2700 long and wet shower floor about 1500 so dry standing space should be about 1200 and towel rail about 2.5m away from the shower head so heated towel rail shouldn't be a problem ...the sliding glass door is meant to enclose all the moisture within the shower room and to be kept away from all the other rooms while still allowing light from the skylight to be shared with the adjoining rooms by retaining the slope in the existing ceilings and adding a ventilating skylight directly above the shower and adding fixed panes of glass in the wall between the shower space and the other small rooms and having just the 2200- 2400 tall partition behind the bed and between the ens and wiw...the wardrobes could still have the storage built up to 2400 and the dust can just stay where it lands and sparkle in all that lovely light...sadly, i have two perfectly sized Velux roof windows awaiting a new home but transport costs could far outweigh the cost of buying local but i've occasionaly seen them offered on Gumtree etc so start looking...See MoreHelp with ensuite - any advice welcome

Comments (21)My sister converted her double garage into a rumpus room for her children. As mentioned above the space is bigger than needed. She put in a stud wall (with door) along the length of the garage as a narrow store room. Floor to ceiling deep storage shelves along one wall for all those bulky items (like suitcases, boogieboards), and room for a second fridge/freezer for when she buys in bulk. I think what made her conversion successful (and not look like a garage conversion) was that she filled in the wall where the garage doors had been and put in an ordinary-sized door in from her partly enclosed carport. She had a floor to ceiling window on one side to give light and you have a window to the side as well....See More

2 years agoIt is a Queen Bed. Sorry I don't know how to show you the pitch of the roof as they aren't on plans but the ridge of the roof is where I've drawn the 4m line as it is 4m high ceililng in the middle which goes down to 2 m on the external wall where the big door/window is. This is an existing roof (gutting the whole house though), the Ensuite is where the existing roof meets the new roof so some of it will be under that pitched roof and some will be under the new roof/ceiling of 2.7m. Hope that makes sense.

2 years agoIf you want to move the bedroom door out I would also shift the hall door. This will add more storage and centre hall door to window at end of robe
