[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm so glad we have two bathrooms so we don't have to use sinks at the same time in the same space. I like my privacy!

Me personally, I would prefer more cabinets and more counter space over two sinks - but I've watched enough HGTV to know that two sinks are important to a lot of people. I don't know how you factor that into your reno plans. I would be inclined to just renovate the way you like and let future owners make whatever changes they like, but I am also terrible with money.[/quote]

Umm very very few people have 2 master bathrooms in their McMansion.

DH and I have no trouble sharing our master bathroom in the morning and night. We enjoy talking about our days and plans we're making. It's not a hardship. It's like pillowtalk before we get in bed. We have two separate vanities across the bathroom from each other. [/quote]

I am the PP and I think you misunderstood. We don't live in a McMansion - we live in a 1950s ranch house. And I didn't say we have two master bathrooms. I said we have two bathrooms. Amazing how we are able to walk out of our bedroom and down the hall to that second bathroom when necessary! I know that seems like an *insane* notion, right? Who can possibly walk that far??

Anyway, I would rather have storage than two sinks. I do not care to use the bathroom at the same time as my husband. YMMV and probably does.[/quote]

Do you not have kids? My kids are getting ready in the other bathrooms and would be upset if DH was hogging their bathroom.[/quote]

We don't have kids, but we do have a lot of houseguests - then the second bathroom in the house goes to the guests (who also manage to get by without a double vanity!). There's a half bath in the garage my husband often retreats to then, but even without that we'd be fine I think? I don't know - I guess I never thought of double sinks as solving all the problems associated with having fewer bathrooms than there are people in the house. What happens in your house when it's time to shower, or poop? How come everyone is doing sink stuff at the same time but manages to time their showering and pooping so that there isn't a traffic jam?

Anyway, glad you have a situation that works for you! [/quote]
