Design
For this homeowner, much of her transportation about her home is by means of a motorized chair. Other modifications had been made in the home but the bathroom remodel remained on her check list. The only bathroom was small and narrow leaving very few good options to make necessary changes for handicap needs.
A room addition to the home to create a bathroom made to fit her exact needs was the most logical option. The new bathroom is attached to a bedroom at the back of the home (now a true master bedroom & suite).
Key accessibility features:
Turning radius necessary for the motorized chair
Roll under access to the sink with hide-away doors
Reduced threshold entry to shower with a solid shower pan - roll in access with easy clean-ability
Easy transfer to teak bench in the shower
Diverter valve to allow both handheld shower bathing while seated and traditional showering via overhead fixture
Grab bars in shower at near toilet provide safety and security
Room for motorized chair to get close to toilet
Overall aesthetic benefits:
True master bedroom with attached master suite
Linen closet in new bathroom
Vanity storage in cream painted cabinets
Easy to clean integrated sink and vanity top with decorative accent tile backsplash
Window to back patio lets in natural light and view of gardens
Brick exterior of addition matches the specialty mortar application of existing structure
