Should each bedroom have its own bathroom?

A bathroom - your typical bathroom

Do you think each bedroom in a house should have its own bathroom? Our house has 4 bedrooms, and we only have 2 bathrooms. I just visited my friend's house the other day, and they had 5 rooms, each with their own bathroom, plus another bathroom for everybody. They had more bathrooms than bedrooms!

It depends on the lifestyle of the family who lives there. Plus if they can afford it why not. One pro of every room having a bathroom is that they can avoid the "morning rush" of using the same bathroom. On the other hand, it will be expenive to build and maintain.

I think we can afford just one more bathroom, and I think we need it. We have only two bathrooms here and there are seven people living here!

My grandmother used to say there should be two bathrooms in every house, one for company and one for the family. I'd add one more in the master bedroom. Currently, I have four kids with two bathrooms. Seems to be working out, but when the girls get older....another will be added!

Haha, definitely. Kinda worried, since my stepsister's gonna live with us here soon, and she spends at least an hour in the bathroom!

It would be nice to have a master bathroom, we all share one, but ther's only 3 of us. I would hate to have more bathrooms than bedrooms, probably because I despise cleaning bathrooms, that'd be a lot of work!

Haha, I never thought about the cleaning part. I just thought it would be nice to have many bathrooms, but never thought that of course, someone would have to clean them! But hey, if I can afford to have more bathrooms than bedrooms, then I can certainly afford to have someone clean it up for me right? :)

I find that tooo extravagent... its not like you can have all 5 showers going and have them hot... and all the extra water wasted wow... to me a bathroom is a place to use the toilet and take a shower or bath.... 2 baths for 4 bdrms is perfectly normal... 6 baths for 5 bdrms is not in my opinion there are three of us living here and only 2 bathrooms and we get along great

I like bedroom with own bathroom. It's must more easier if you really got to go..LOL. And plus, you like having private bathroom. That's sound better than shares bathroom. But sometimes, house just not enough to add a bathroom in each bedroom.

I guess you're right. When you really got to go, you don't need to wait for your brother or sister to finish using the bathroom!

Here we are renoving our house, but we don't see any need to have that much of bathrooms. We will have two bathrooms because all the bedrooms are not on the same floor than the bathroom. But two it's enough I think.
