Bath Remodel - 2 - Tuckahoe

Project Objective:

The second of a three-bathroom project, the low ceiling and oddly located window created a few challenges in this bathroom. An exterior glass block window was not desired due to the window location on the front of the house.

Scope of Work:

To create a large enough shower and preserve the natural light into this room required carving out about a foot of space in an adjacent bedroom closet, sliding the shower away from the exterior wall, and installing a glass block feature into the partition wall of the shower. Not only did this allow for the passage of light into the shower, but created a neat nook between the shower and window wall for a small storage cabinet for additional linens and toiletries. Not to be overlooked is the tasteful blending of classic white subway tile with a slate accent tile in the shower walls and floor. A tiny, wallpapered room was suddenly transformed into a crisp, modern bathing experience!
