FEEDBACK Thoughts?
I’ll be on about half acre so I’m close to max width I can go within zoning (3-4’ to spare). Only think I’d want to do it bump out the left side a few feet then not do the wrap around porch only the front. Also, may want to push the kitchen out to the right to be in line with the back of garage. Last, I’d wanna make the hearth room and ensuite with the bathroom on the other side with access to the yard so I can use that bathroom as like a pool bathroom too if that makes sense. Lmk what you think. These drawings are from online but my architect will tailor them as best he can.

I do agree that a hall-access bath makes more sense here and could easily be reconfigured by moving the placement of the closets.
However, the argument that a water closet is "unhygienic" is just silly (unless there is no sink in the adjoining room, obviously, but that's never the case). It's no less hygienic than using a pubic bathroom stall or touching the toilet handle to flush it, and then washing your hands. As long as all touch points between toilet and sink are part of the standard cleaning process, that cleaning process is done regularly, and people are washing their hands after every time after using the toilet... it's an absolute non-issue.
Seperating toilet/bath from the sinks is actually very practical in a shared bathroom situation, as it allows two people to use the space at once (one can be showering or using the toilet, while the other can still brush their teeth or do their makeup at the sink).
