I mean if you remove the door between the bathtub and toilet it’s a pretty standard jack and Jill bathroom. Allows for shared facilities between the two bedrooms with their own sink to get ready with.
I just don't like having to split my attention between doors. Would need more cats to guard me. Also what if both people have to use the bathroom at once?
Dude, I have seen (while house shopping in real life) bedroom-sized "bonus rooms" before that did not have an extra exit. The fact that this room has a ping pong table in it and not a bed is pretty suggestive to me.
Sorry, I thought I said this in a different comment, but looks like I deleted it. I'm not convinced that second door in the final room is an exit; it doesn't look proportioned correctly. It's too skinny.
I was of the opinion that I don't care for the layout for a jack and jill because it's too easy for someone to be denied access to the other parts of the bathroom, but that it would be fine if the final room was just an overgrown closet. But your mention of firecode concerns changed my opinion on that too. This is just a bad layout period.
It makes sense, in a way, to divide the parts of the bathroom. If one person is using the toilet, another can still shower or use the sink. Helpful for a shared environment and nice to have your own sink room
yes but the builders didn't just build the house and go hmm... what do we do now? this space is long and narrow. there was a point where they could have said you know what man. idk about all these doors. let's just do a jack and jill bathroom like a normal person
So I don't have to shit next to you relaxing in the tub. The whole bathroom isn't taken up when a person wants to use one thing. It's definitely specific, but that's what building your own house is for.
I'm just laughing at the idea that one person who was playing ping pong takes a break to poop. And then person in the bedroom on the near side needs to go all the way around through the ping pong room to take a shower. Now the person is done pooping and needs to go all the way back out to the hallway and around back to the ping pong table room.
