Gone are the days when family members were happy to take their turn in the bathroom. Make no mistake: a house with two bathrooms trumps a home with just one.
In the shopping list of building works that can add significant value to a property – from conservatories to loft conversions to new kitchens – the humble bathroom often gets overlooked. After all, it is probably the room in the house in which people spend least time.
