2/8 Bathroom before
The bathroom in this 17th-century farmhouse was in need of updating. The owners wanted to install a shower and prevent the room from feeling divided and lacking in focus.
Click ahead to see the dramatic transformation...
3/8 Basin
The modern wall-hung unit breaks up the long space. The partition wall provides a place for the large mirror and simple tiled splashback.
Find splashback tiles like these at Kirkstone (opens in new tab). The mirror is from Ripples (opens in new tab).
4/8 Bath
The freestanding roll-top bath adds a touch of country character to the new bathroom. It also stops the overall look feeling too modern.
For a similar bath try the Duchess corner bath from the Cooke & Lewis range at B&Q (opens in new tab)
5/8 Bathroom shower
The large walk in wet-room area features a tiled shelf which provides a convenient place to store toiletries.
For similar wall and floor tiles try Oxford Stone & Marble (opens in new tab).
6/8 Window seat
The window seat hides pipework but also provides a perfect view of the garden below.
7/8 Bathroom shower cubicle
The owners made better use of the space by creating a false wall to separate the walk-in shower. The toilet has been neatly hidden behind the newly-created vanity area.
The shower screen, fittings, toilet, vanity unit and teak worktop are all from Ripples (opens in new tab). The wet area mosaic floor tiles are from Lakeland Stone. (opens in new tab)
8/8 Bathroom sink
The contemporary basin sits above the modern vanity unit.
The basin and tap are both from Ripples (opens in new tab).
