When the house was built in 1931, there was no inside bathroom. As was done so often, when a bathroom was added, it was added to an area off the kitchen. And while I understand the plumbing reasoning, having my bathroom attached to my kitchen was not going to work. I agreed to buy the house, but with the stipulation that the bathroom would be relocated as soon as we moved in!! Thus began the never~ending house renovation.
The bathroom was one of the worst bathrooms EVER!
It measured 6ft x 7.5ft and was crammed full of a bathtub, sink, toilet, and stand up shower.
* The space between the sink and bathtub was barely 12 inches
* The stand up shower was not big enough to move in--couldn't even raise your arm all the way up to shave your pits:)
* The bathtub tile had mold behind it--and
oozing out ( I know you are coveting the beauty we had!!!)
* The floor was textured linoleum that was horrible to keep clean
* It was U.G.L.Y personified!!!!
So..what do you do with a bathroom off the kitchen? You make it into a mudroom of course!
STEP 1: --after the first 50 steps to get it ready--
We took the original wood siding that had been pulled off the exterior, and hung it on one of the interior walls. We even used the piece of siding with the original meter number.
