my sister's house (no mansion, just a recent build) has double sinks in the master bedroom. the layout(s) of the bathrooms house-wide are annoying to me. it seems all new builds are just large for largesse rather than utility; laid out more for the listing than for use.
it's a 4 bedroom 4 bath house. upstairs, the master has its bath complete with two sinks like post (toilet is relegated to a weird claustro-closet). one of the sinks in her bathroom is a junk drawer ha!
The other 3 bedrooms: one has its own master bath and shower, and the final two bedrooms have a shared bath n' shower set between them. none of these bathrooms are accessible from the hallway, you must go thru a bedroom to do your business.
there is one "public" bathroom on the main level....now lemme talk about that stinker.
This damn thing is a half-bath, set right between the kitchen and living area. i don't know how the architect managed it, but it is somehow accoustically perfected to deliver your performance to the rooms nearby where everyone's tryina hang out.
Exaggeration? Not even. Like, forget stealth mode, you need a battle plan with flawless execution. You think things are going well? One slip-up and the people watching tv or chatting will be interrupted by your public broadcast. The noise is seriously noticeable.
No, I'm not scatalogically shy, nor do i possess super-hearing. It's a problem. A bad enough problem she eventually had another bathroom installed basement-level so guests might poo without detailing exquisitely to everyone what they ate that day.
I agree they like to make big bathrooms just for the sake of it which is stupid. But I have to say I'm obsessed with toilet rooms and it's what I want most in a bathroom. They are just so nice and cozy and safe
Sounds annoying to clean all that ngl
New house designs have gotten so shitty, and McMansions are the worst offenders. I live in an old WW1 era house and while it lacks in a feq modern conveniences like an HVAC system, the built-in efficiences are wonderful.
Every room has a solid door, and closing them gives you a lot of privacy. Walls naturally insulate, allowing me to open windows on cool evenings and close them in the morning before the heat arrives -- It can be as low as 70 indoors when it's 90 outside. This works in reverse too when it's heat you need instead. If it's truly hot, the windows are all positioned to allow a breeze to pass straight thru the household.
If needed, the kitchen can be closed off to stop the heat, smoke, and odors from permeating the house. This makes the kitchen more of a strict workspace and less of a socializing area though. There are a lot of major hassles in having an older house, but the energy efficiency is wonderful
