This Mercer Island ensuite renovation was not just a simple bedroom, closet, and bathroom upgrade but a thoughtful reconfiguration of the entire space. The clients, who were referred by a designer they had previously worked with, aimed to transform their outdated and impractical bathroom into a modern, functional, and spa-like sanctuary.
The project, initially delayed due to the pandemic, required significant adjustments to the original plans to meet permit requirements. The existing layout featured dated finishes and tiles, impractical vessel sinks, and lacked space for a king-size bed to overlook the water. To address these issues, the renovation involved extending the bedroom wall to accommodate the bed, replacing outdated finishes with modern white rift oak cabinetry and quartz countertops, and creating a huge walk-in closet. Additionally, the renovation team worked meticulously to ensure the new layout provided better lighting and ventilation.
The outcome was a transformed ensuite that exudes high-end privacy and style. By swapping the locations of the toilet and shower, the team created a more private and functional space, enhancing the overall spa-like experience. The new design not only met the clients’ needs but also exceeded their expectations, resulting in a cozy, intimate area that perfectly blends ultra-modern aesthetics with practical functionality.
