Deal breakers: No bathtub? No downstairs loo?

We're in a mid-terrace, 3 storeys including the loft conversion. We currently have a loo with a bathtub on the ground floor, and a loo with a shower in the loft. We want to open up the downstairs to make it more open plan, but to make the best use of space, we either have to move the whole downstairs loo and bathtub to the first floor, or lose the bathtub and just have a toilet and sink downstairs.
We're planning to sell the house a year or so after this.
If you were buying which would you prefer?
No toilet downstairs but a full bathroom on the first floor, or
No bathtub, but a toilet on the ground floor

I would leave it as it is, save the money for your next house.

Could you do a basic fix sorting out decorations and floors but leave bathroom as it is? It’s not perfect but you retain a bath and downstairs loo and don’t lose any space on middle floor?

Neither. A downstairs loo and a bath are both necessities for me. We wouldn’t buy completely open plan anyway, it’s nice to get away from each other sometimes.
