[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with PP - this is hard to answer without knowing what your master bedroom/bathroom are like now. Agreed that for resale value, you need a big bathroom and walk in closet.[/quote]

Master bedrooms and baths on the smaller side are common in some of the most expensive neighborhoods.  Georgetown, Foggy Bottom, DuPont Circle, Chevy Chase, American University, even Spring Valley.  Depends on your location.   [/quote]

OP has a 1 acre lot and it's also a mix of terrain. It's likely not in an urban area.  For suburban areas expectations of the size of indoor sleeping spaces is different.  For resale value you should have at least one bedroom (with ensuite bath) that can fit a king size bed.  People in highly urban areas do not expect this especially from older pre-war homes.

IDK anything about OP's property, but it's quite possible if bedrooms are very small that it's an older home and would be a tear down.  OP has to look at the sales of similar homes to see if extensive remodel is even worth it.  In areas of massive construction turnover old homes are only worth the price of land, so you lose money put into your house.  Only worth to renovate if you don't care you won't get a penny back at resale.  If you have this loose cash to spend, then just do whatever remodel pleases you without worrying about resale tastes of other people.  [/quote]
