There are en-suite bathrooms....

... and then there's this

£685k. 4 bed, 2 bath.

Doesn't clarify in the ad whether the room below counts as both.

This reminds me of one of those Sarah Beeny programmes from way back when they put a toilet in the utility room. As in, next to the washing machine, not in a separate room.

Crikey. Not going to keep the mystery alive, is it?

For that prison feeling.

Love it. Sharing is caring 😀

For when you want wafts of eu de toilet.

Is there a sink? I can’t see a sink on my phone...🤢

(Here's the forgotten 'a')

Designed for pregnant women. Ideal!

I can't see a sink @RJnomore1. Well not in that bedroom anyway. One of the other bedrooms has one.

Assume there's a shower in the 3rd and a bidet in the 4th??

😂😂😂

When we went to Sydney, loads of b&bs advertised having ensuites. Later in the ad they'd mention you have to share a toilet. I'd always thought the toilet was an integral part of an ensuite but it appears I was too demanding. Not sure having the toilet in the bedroom is much better really.

I have exactly that, don’t think it’s that odd is it? There’s even a name for it, a lootility. A toilet in a bedroom however is very odd………

Even with a long term illness/bed ridden it’s not very hygienic!

A portable screen on wheels around it at the very least!

My Db has one of those. It is great, especially when toilet training children. Really big room with heated flooring and washing machine, dog shower/wetroom and dryer. I would love one.

That's grim. Not quite the boutique hotel vibe.

I have one too and it's very handy. No one has ever mentioned it as being odd in 20 years and I have friends who are brutally honest! We've also had estate agents value the house and not a murmur!

Out of interest why do you find it odd @PuppyMonkey

@ImInStealthMode a loo in the bedroom is definitely weird 🥴

We viewed a house with a loo in the corner of the bedroom once - although it did have a wicker screen round it. The poor estate agent was clearly embarrassed by the whole thing - and his viewings were made doubly difficult because the elderly couple were always in and saying how lucky the house was. There were boxes everywhere so the rooms looked even smaller than they were. He couldn’t say look this house is a great location and plot and the house could be great if extended/ altered a lot, because they followed round pointing out odd features. Took ages to sell and was eventually knocked down and something new built.

now I understand what a bed sit is

Okay sorry it must be just me that thinks utility room loo is odd.

Maybe it’s because our utility room has no door, it leads straight off from our kitchen so I’m thinking how weird it would be?

I've seen a couple of utility room loos before but I think in both instances it's been a downstairs loo first, with washing machine etc added because there's the space, rather than a laundry room with a random toilet added.

Yes, the one on Sarah Beeny programme was definitely primarily a (large) utility room, with a back door leading out into the garden and a kitchen sink type arrangement. It wasn't a downstairs loo which handily had enough space to house other stuff too.

Okay sorry it must be just me that thinks utility room loo is odd.

I think it's odd but I know it's popular. Clean clothes and poo aerosols don't seem like natural roommates to me and I doubt anyone with plenty of space would combine the two.
