Dispensing with a bathtub

[Shane]

We are planning to renovate our two bedroom house, and considering ditching the bathtub to ensure more space in the bathroom, including a luxurious shower. I suspect that for resale most people would advise that you need a bath, but I hate the idea of cramming in a tiny bath that won’t be used. Would you buy a house without a bath?

I recently purchased a 3 bed 2 bath property. Looking at the layout of the second bathroom I was adamant of removing the bath for more storage/bench space and a larger shower. Then I got a dog! I would now never give up the bath!
