Jewel Box Master Bath Remodel
As cute and cozy as the existing master bedroom and bath suite was, it was just a bit too tight for the owners. And the shower was too dark. And it only had one sink...no countertop space....no mirror...no towel bars...
Expanding and updating the bath started with doubling the size of the existing dormer, adding several more windows, and tiling the old wood floor.
The dark, enclosed shower was replaced with a wide-open all-glass one, which shows off the new fixtures and tile, lets light through to brighten up the whole bathroom.
A new door on barn-door roller hardware replaces the old hinged door, which blocked the hallway when opened. And moving the linen closet to the adjacent hallway returned space to the bath.
Double beadboard wanscot, period plumbing and lighting fixtures, and a wood plank ceiling turn this little master bath into a jewel box, and keep the character in tune with the rest of the house.
