1952 Cape Cod Home Bathroom Addition Design

Job ID: 40575525

Budget: $750 – $1,500 USD

Hello,

I would love to assist with the planning and design of your second-floor en-suite bathroom addition. Your project is well thought out, and I understand the importance of creating a functional layout while preserving the original character of your 1952 Cape Cod home.

I specialize in residential architectural design and can help develop detailed plans that focus on efficient space planning, structural feasibility, and coordinated plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and venting layouts. My approach prioritizes functionality, natural light, and minimizing disruption to the existing structure while maintaining the home's street-facing roof profile.

Based on your description, I can:

* Design multiple layout options, including a double vanity where space permits.
* Create a practical three-quarter bathroom layout with shower, toilet, and vanity.
* Plan structural modifications required to support the second-floor addition.
* Coordinate plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and venting systems for efficient installation.
* Develop roofline concepts that preserve the home's exterior appearance.
* Work from your existing measurements and floor plans to produce builder-ready drawings.

The existing plumbing below the proposed bathroom and the utility room location provide an excellent opportunity to simplify utility connections and reduce construction complexity. I will carefully consider these existing conditions to create the most efficient design possible.

Please note that while I can prepare detailed architectural drawings and construction documentation, if Virginia law requires plans to be stamped by a Virginia-licensed architect or engineer for permitting, that final approval and seal must be provided by a professional licensed in Virginia.
I would be happy to review your existing plans, measurements, and photographs to discuss the best design approach. I look forward to working with you and helping create a beautiful, functional master en-suite that complements your home's architecture.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
