Downstairs toilet placement
Hi all! We are looking at changing our conservatory into an extension keeping it similar size adding a breakfast bar/island and room for a dining table and sofa area. We would also love a utility area and downstairs toilet but i can not work out where to put it! We have side access on the right of the house. Any thoughts are much appreciated!!

4 years agoThanks for your comment Ellie, I appreciate its not a huge space. This is what we were thinking (sorry it’s so rough and i haven’t fully worked out dimensions, the area I’ve marked for the toilet probs needs to be bigger). When I say utility I just mean an area for the washing machine and tumble dryer and some shelves above perhaps. nothing fancy with a sink etc. its Mostly the toilet placement which is puzzling me because of doors clashing and it opening into the kitchen. I thought about putting it in on the left where my kitchen currently is along the wall and moving the kitchen to the current conservatory area but I can’t work out the best layout that way. I’m sorry if this makes no sense or if I’m being a total dreamer here

Comments (74)Hello Houzz Ireland, We are currently renovating a 1960's build - so as you know, there is a lot of decisions to be made!! So it would be nice to get some gems of advice from the experts to help us through this daunting task. Areas where we would really like some inspiration for - small bathroom downstairs. I would really like to do something fun with this room and although small, I think it could work really well with some funky wallpaper or possibly tiles?! I'm just not sure what to do with it. Also - pulling a whole house together?! Where do we start? We have the bigger pieces of furniture but how do I know what nest of tables goes best with a suite? Or what accessories will bring a room together? I'm due a second baby in 2 weeks time so any help at this stage would be so amazing - to guide me on the right interior design path for our new house. Thanks, Laurie...See MorePaint colors for new house....help needed!
Comments (0)Hi all, Need to decide on colors for our new house quickly (4 bed semi in a new development) and as I am a complete novice looking for some sound advice please. I was hoping to get into some paint shops and get some advice and samples but avoiding as much as possible due to Covid 19. So apologies in advance for all the questions! Painting will be done by the builder and the only instructions are that we "can pick up to 4 neutral colors from the Dulux range which will be mixed in standard matt". He has suggested that Shale White, Savon Grey, Warm Stove or Tempting Taupe are popular colors so far. House has an east/west orientation with the front of the house facing (sitting room) east and the back of the house (kitchen) facing west. I have done some initial research on best colors for west facing kitchen and it seems to suggest that white is a good option maybe with pink undertones? We are going for a Kashmir kitchen with a grey island and white counter tops as shown in the picture below. We are going for laminate flooring in the hall, sitting and kitchen and I like the one on the left below. What wall color do people think would work best in the kitchen with our flooring and kitchen colors? For the sitting room as it is east facing with the laminate floor above has anybody got some good tips on what might work well? For the downstairs bathroom I have read that white is a good option for darker (no window) bathrooms. We will be getting the tile below in the corner on the floor and the wall tile behind the toilet and sink covering half of the wall. The two bathrooms upstairs will be tiled. For the hall downstairs and the landing upstairs presume you would go with one color throughout? Again is a white color a good option or would grey work equally well? Finally for the bedrooms would you recommend to go all the same neutral color initially (as we are limited to 4 paint choices throughout the house) and then we can paint individual rooms afterwards when the 3 kids start demanding their own colors. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Shane...See MoreUtility room and downstairs shower room
Comments (0)In these plans I do not like the way guests will have to walk through the utility room to get to the downstairs toilet. At the same time I do want a big utility and mud room. Could anyone suggest an alternative arrangement? Thank you....See Morebathroom layout
Comments (0)Hi.. we would appreciate some help with layout for bathroom reno. The big question is whether to re-install a new shower or not? Please see stripped out room attached (current state). In the original room there was a shower on left, bookcases in cubby on right, sink against the wall on right and toilet behind the door. We are happy and willing to reconfigure all as needs be. We have two showers upstairs and tbh this downstairs shower has been rarely if ever used. Grateful for your thoughts. Thanks!...See More

4 years agoHaving the loo and utility sideways would take up more space. It makes more sense to me to move the livingroom door. And if it were my home, I wouldn't want my livingroom to hold the main traffic line.
