Looking for help with a remodel of a 2nd level. This is our first house we purchased a year ago and this was the big project we had in mind all along. Its a cape cod style house and the previous owners had it setup as 2 bedrooms for the kiddos with a small bath in the middle (the sink is actually outside of the bathroom in one of the bedrooms). There is a large window at each end of the level and a small window in the dormer. It currently has 2 very tiny closets.
We want to have one large bedroom with a larger bath and a walk-in closet. I want to do a lot of the work myself and am trying to not move the plumbing (at least not the toilet) to save money. Ive attached the old layout along with 2 new layouts ive come up with. Sorry I dont have all the measurements with me right now. #1 actually creates a slightly bigger bedroom but smaller closet. #2 has a much bigger closet but puts 1 large window and the dormer window in the closet. Both layouts would have me putting a skylight in the bathroom as there is currently no widow.
Looking for ideas, thoughts, tips etc. These are obviously pretty rough sketches but its all I have right now.
Also if anybody has any rough idea of what I can expect to spend. I know it would be ballpark but if it could at least give me an idea. Thanks again!
