[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some useful input, thanks.  Our basement is unfinished and tiny so not at all feasible as a location for a bathroom.  If we do it, it would likely be small and entirely tiled as a wet room (without a shower enclosure).  I'm sure we would use the shower, but would definitely benefit more from having a toilet on that level.  I guess the shower would get more use when our kids are older and there's more demand on the one bathroom, even if the location is a little odd.

[b]Another question, which is preferable a small dining room with a small bath with shower or a larger dining room and just a half bath?  I do need to talk with a realtor about resale, but in the meantime input here is really useful[/b].[/quote]

From a resale perspective i would say a bigger DR and half bath.  Would the bathroom actually open into the DR?  I would avoid that.  When we redid our kitchen we put up a wall between the kitchen area and the hall where the half bath was so someone coming out of it wouldnt be seen.  We moved the entrance etc.  A good architect will help figure this out.  A full bath on the first floor is generally odd to me unless its a big house.  But if you are living there a long time - you cares - you do what you need.[/quote]
