Master Bath walls, tub, and faucets

The master bath has quickly taken shape with walls being framed in and the plumbing going in today.  We had to pick our tub and shower faucets so that the plumber could get everything in the right place.  I kind of went back and forth on the idea of a claw foot tub.  It was between that and another type of freestanding tub that sits on a base.  I LOVE the way claw foot tubs look, but the thought of dust bunnies collecting under it bothered me, but in the end we decided to go with one and I think it is going to look great in the house!  

 This is a view from the door into the master bath from the bedroom.  The opening on the left is the closet and it will have a pocket door.  On the other side of that is the shower.


 Here is a view of the closet from the other side of the room.  



 This is the shower.  The shower will have tile up the half wall there and then glass up the rest of the way.  That way the light will pass through the glass into the bathroom and it won't feel as closed off.  This will also allow us to install a seat in the shower on that end.  The shower head and control will be on the wall that backs up to the closet.  You can see 2 shelves will be built in for soaps and shampoo.  There will be a glass door on the shower as well.



 On this side of the closed off fireplace will be the vanity.  The door from the bedroom won't be that large so 2 sinks and cabinets will fit in there nicely.  


 On the other side of the fireplace will be the tub.  It will be centered in the space and will have 2 wall sconces over it, equally spaced on the wall. 



This is the tub we chose.  It is a cast iron tub and the claw feet will be finished in an oil rubbed bronze color.

This is the tub faucet, which I fell in love with!  It is so fitting for the house I think!  It will be mounted on the top rim of the tub with exposed plumbing.  It will also be in the oil rubbed bronze color to match the tub and the other faucets in the bathroom.

  1. Claw-foot tub and exposed plumbing. :D These two, no matter how silly it sounds, would add to the pleasure of using and owning your bathroom. Plumbing doesn’t need to be always concealed within the walls. Levi@Capital Plumbing & Heating Ltd
