I have a 3 bed, 1 bath home. We are renovating & need to know what will be better for resale value. We currently have 1 bathroom, accesible from the master suite & also the hallway.
Option 1: Split the bathroom in half
Pros: The master bed will have its own ensuite & the home will now be a 3 bed TWO bath.
Cons: Although there'll be an additional bathroom, they will both be quite small.
Option 2: Add a small bathroom using living room space.
Pros: The master suite will now have an ensuite AND walk through robe (it currently only has built ins & the room will be slightly larger if we remove those)
Cons: The only way we can add a bathroom is to reduce the living/lounge room space.
QUESTION: Is it better to have 3 bed, 1 bath, decent living space.
Or 3 bed, 1 bath ensuite/walk through robe & reduced living space?
Please help... We don't want to make the wrong choice & waste our time & money.
Thanku in advance.
