There’s a bathtub in my living room
I raised the doorway no problem and then started in on the coat closet and realized the back wall seemed too shallow.
So I punched a hole (with a hammer) and discovered a bathtub!
No joke! “They” installed the shower/tub where you see the yellow line! I always wondered about the odd extra space between the toilet and shower/tub in that bathroom. I don’t get it.
Wow! I have heard of builders leaving their beer or soda bottles in walls when they are building a house, but bathtubs! That is one for the record books 🙂 I am sure there is a good story behind it.
Ha! And I was thinking you were going to say they literally walled up a tub!
Oh my gosh, Sandra, that is hilarious! And odd. What were they thinking?? 🙂
Does that mean you might be able to add a half bath in that closet? I guess that would defeat your open space concept, but I sure do love me some extra bathrooms!
Wow, now that’s some very mistaken DIY. I don’t think those people thought things through before they did it. I can just imagine the conversation. “Hmmm…You know I don’t think this tub will fit and give me the space I want.” “well, how about we just rip out this wall and have it go out a little bit.” “Yeah! and then we can just throw in a closet to hide the extra wall jutting out in the other room! Perfect!”
