Many homeowners are thinking more seriously about remodeling their homes as opposed to facing the challenges of buying a new home. In today’s real estate market, there are a variety of factors to consider when determining whether homeowners choose to renovate or move. This makes perfect sense as homeowners are prioritizing transforming their homes to meet their evolving needs.
At Gettum Associates, we have noticed that bathroom renovations are often at the center of these discussions and for a good reason. A well-designed bathroom can make a significant impact on your daily routine, creating a space that can be a welcoming start or relaxing end to your day.
Popular Bathroom Layout Transformations
One of the most requested bathroom updates in recent year has been the conversion from traditional tubs to modern, spacious showers. Many older homes in the greater Indianapolis area feature outdated bathroom fixtures that do not always meet homeowners’ contemporary lifestyle needs. Converting a tub to a shower can:
- Create a more open and spacious feeling in your bathroom
- Reduce water usage compared to a traditional tub
- Allow for luxury features such as rainfall showerheads and body sprayers
With today’s shower designs, there are a multitude of options from the addition of luxury showerheads to stunning tilework and built-in seating. Let our design team create a space the aligns with your practical needs and aesthetic preferences.
Another common bathroom renovation is the addition of a double vanity. Sharing sink space with significant others, children, or even roommates can cause unwanted tension and frustration. Though this is considered a must-have feature for many homeowners, there are a few key considerations to take into account.
There are specific space requirements in a bathroom when considering the additional sink and counter.
- A minimum width of 60 inches for a double vanity
- Adequate clearance for cabinet doors and drawers
- Necessary spacing for plumbing modifications
There are also many lifestyle benefits to consider, especially the positive impact this addition can have on your daily routine. A double vanity can help streamline morning and bedtime routines when multiple people need to use the space. Upgrading to a double vanity will not only provide additional storage space for personal items, but it can also improve the resale value of your home. Many buyers are looking for beautiful and functional spaces throughout the home, which includes the bathroom.
Luxury Features Worth the Investment
