To rehab bathroom or not to rehab... That is the question.

My husband and I are selling our primary residence (our first accidental flip).

We have previously gutted the home and rehabbed the entire kitchen, floors, dining room etc (bamboo floors, chandeliers, stainless Steele appliances etc.)

There is a guest bathroom at the front of the house that we are in the process of renovating as well.

And then there is the master bathroom. Very small, one vanity, not so appealing tile, old mirrors etc. Next to it is a huge walk in closet. 

Do we spend the money redoing tile, getting the double vanity with nice faucets, stylish mirror, repainting etc.? My fear is that it would be wasted money and effort if the buyer will likely knock out the adjoining wall of the closest to make an ensuite.

Any thoughts would be much appreciated!

You've gone this far already. Sometimes the old stuff looks worse when it is surrounded by the new. If this was a rental I'd say no, but you are trying to sell. So if you have the $$ then bite the bullet and get 'er done.
