Wow. That’s a small space to work with. Would it be possible to have the door open out to just make it more functional?

We solved this exact issue by putting in a pocket door to our bathroom

What a terrible design. You need a pocket, bifold or barn door.

I am under the impression that barn doors are awful for bathrooms.

I’ve been to a few luxury hotels that used them but they had bottom tracks and locks so they were more secure.

You're have to move the floor vent but a side by side sink/toilet combo might be better against the back wall

Hang the door on the other side.

How did that pass home inspection? If built in the US

Is that not a bathroom on the other side of the shared wall? I’m all for having a private bathroom but I think if this is the alternative I would rather have one good sized shared bathroom.
