Rehab Floorplan Feedback Needed

Calvin Kwan

Hi All!

Would love some feedback on a floorplan I'm working on.  Original layout is on the left, and option 1A and 1B are the options I'm exploring.  I love the dining room, and would hate to lose it.  It has 11' ceilings and beautiful bay windows.  Adds tons of light into the house.

Option 1A  - 3BD/2BA.  Bigger bedrooms, extra bathroom, but takes away the beautiful dining room.  

Option 1B - 3BD/1BA.  Smaller bedrooms, smaller kitchen, but keeps the huge dining room.  Saves about 10K in rehab budget.

Thoughts?

THanks,
Calvin

I'm liking the Unit 1A plan. Having an extra bathroom is always nice and that plan would create a main bedroom suite where bedroom 3 is. You could always put a sliding barn door or french doors on bedroom 2 where the dining room was, which would open it up for options. It could still be used as a dining room (albeit a smaller one), or an office (which might be nice with people working from home more often) or a bedroom.
