Sometimes a bathroom doesn’t need a completely new footprint to feel like an entirely new space. This Carnegie master bathroom transformation proves just how much of a difference the right updates can make.
The original bathroom featured a large jetted tub, enclosed shower, dated tile flooring, and an older vanity with limited modern functionality. The homeowners wanted to bring the space up to date while creating a bathroom that felt more open, comfortable, and practical while still keeping the separate shower and tub option.
The Problem:
The original bathroom featured an enclosed shower with an outdated door, a large jetted tub, dated tile flooring, and an older vanity and cabinetry. While the space was functional, the overall design felt dated and lacked some of the modern features and storage the homeowners wanted.
The Result:
We transformed the space with a new 36″ × 68″ walk-in shower featuring smooth Belagio walls, a built-in bench with an Onyx top, a recessed niche for convenient storage, and a handheld showerhead. The oversized jetted tub was replaced with a more functional, better-sized tub complete with a grab bar to assist with getting in and out. The result gives the homeowners the best of both worlds: a spacious walk-in shower and a comfortable, functional tub.
The vanity area received a major update as well, with a new Northbrook Driftwood vanity and coordinating cabinetry, double sinks, new mirrors, and updated lighting. New Karndean River Marble flooring ties the entire space together while adding a warm, updated look.
The finished bathroom combines comfort, functionality, and timeless style while maintaining the features that mattered most to the homeowners. It’s a great example of how a thoughtful remodel can completely refresh a bathroom without changing everything about the space.
