Redoing the 2nd bath in what may well end up a master 'suite'. Or it may just be the 2nd bath with a guest room attached...
I have a 52" space for the sink... open to the left (with the door opening into the side of the sink space), shower wall to the right. My original thinking was to PURCHASE one of those 'furniture looking' vanity cabinets with the granite/marble tops. Then I got thinking about putting a pedestal sink in the left portion of that area, and a tall cabinet in the corner made by the shower wall... drawers on bottom, shelves at the top. This would meet LOML's demand for some drawer space, and also put some shelf space right at the sink. We'll have a proper and spacious linen pantry behind the sink, as well as something over the toilet.
Seems like the pedestal will help maintain some of the 'old house' feel. But the furniture looking vanity would allow me use a double sliding door for the shower instead of a single swing out. Curious as to what others might do...
I've asked LOML, and in typical fashion, she puts it all back on me. She 'trusts my judgement'... until she doesn't like the end result, and then she remembers that we kinda talked about doing it another way... but not necessarily that she left it up to me.
