Would it be a mistake to put a plain glass window in a bathroom?

[HiDBandSIL]

I currently have an obscure glazed window but the bathroom has one of the best views in the house and I have wanted to change it to a plain glass window for years. I'm looking to actually do it now. Would it be a mistake? I've never had a bathroom window that didn't have obscure glazing.

We put in half shutters so the bottom half has shutters and the top half doesn't.

We did this. Lovely!
I was going to get the stick on frosting for the bottom bit but I didn't need to in the end. I made DH stand at the bottom of the garden while I stood naked in the bath and jiggled and he couldn't see me!

you can fit café curtains or tab-top curtains. Preferably something easy to wash, and a spare set. IMO they look best with a narrow brass or chrome pole. You can slide them open if you feel like it.

pimpernella - we've done the naked jiggle test too

Thank you for all the suggestions. There's so many great ideas here. I'm think I'm going to go for the plain glass.

And anyone who has gone to the trouble of climbing 20ft up a tree deserves to see a bit of nakedness rudy

I think if youve got a lovely view and aren't overlooked, why the hell not!

Our bathroom look out onto a road and a kids play park and even though we have an obscured window, I pulled into the drive once and could see DH's naked torso in the window while he was shaving, just without the detail of nipples... so it wouldn't work for me, and tbh not a view worth taking the risk of being peeped at!

I say go for it. Plenty of options to obscure the bottom half if you're feeling shy or have visitors.

I wanted clear glass but builders cocked up and put obscured glass in lower half. While waiting for them to get clear glass I decided actually partly obscured was ok. Not overlooked but I'd feel vulnerable with totally clear glass and wouldn't want to have to put the blind down and darken the room every time we used it in daylight.
