A CLOSER LOOK
8 WASHINGTON AVENUE —
SECOND FLOOR TRANSFORMATION
ONE SHARED BATH
TWO FULL BATHS + A NEW PRIMARY SUITE​​
THE CHALLENGE
The second floor had one shared bathroom serving three bedrooms, with no private primary ensuite.
​​
Although generous in size, the bathroom was not being used to its full potential. Its dated layout and existing radiators limited opportunities for reconfiguration.
THE PLAN
Removing the radiator and adjacent wall were created a new opening from the primary bedroom into the reconfigured bathroom — creating a true ensuite without expanding the home's footprint.

All without adding a single square foot.
