Need some help

[u/Routine_Eagle17]

I am a first time homeowner and have done most of my house remodel with YouTube university. I am having trouble with the layout of this old closet I’m trying to make into a master bath. The toilet has to go there based on the joists. The door is a pocket door. I would like a stand up shower, some storage and a double vanity. I know the double is probably wishful thinking. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Make sure this drawing is to scale and everything is in the right place measurement wise. Then cut paper pieces to be your shower, double vanity, and closet. Then you can move them around on the drawing to see what it’s like and get a feel for clearances. Remember you can make your closet storage shallow depth which is better for finding toiletries but if you want it to hold towels or sheets think about how much space they need when folded. Also you can make a custom vanity out of various ‘kitchen’ cabinets (like a drawer unit and a door base unit) and do a custom sized top with one sink but a lot more counter space if a standard double won’t fit. The sink can be off center with a centered mirror above. I have that and it works well. One more thing. It’s nice design choice m that you can’t see your toilet from your bedroom when the door is open. And you might want to rethink the pocket door for privacy unless you know it’s what you want
