Additional Toilet in a Bungalow house

Hi, any idea where can I potentially add cloakroom or probably a small shower facility in this 2 bedroom semi-detached bungalow?

The space next to the existing shower room was a single room before but the wall was taken down by the previous owner which explains the out-of-place door next to the kitchen (see floor plan) which I am planning to put back up as guest room. My other option is to have en-suite in the biggest room where the built in wardrobe is but my worry is where will the extractor fan be gonna put on? Not ideal for it to be extracting air from the en-suite into the lounge. It’s semi-detached so can’t put window on the neighbour side. I don’t have budget to do extension for now. Any ideas? Thanks.

If you move the door to the new bedroom to the left so it's right next to the old bathroom.
And
Move the living-room door down so it's opposite it
Then it creates space near existing plumbing to put something in.

I've done a scribble - the black square is the new loo or shower room. The thick black doors are moved from their old locations.

Yes this was my conclusion too

But where does the window end up? Does the wall go right up against the kitchen units? Is there a kitchen window not on the plan?

There’s is kitchen window facing the garden

OK, then of you really want another loo, that seems the best option? But I'd be worried that you were cramming in too many rooms for the space?
I'm assuming there's no chance of going up for another bedroom?

I agree with not compromising the space. I will have to do rear extension at some point
