too many bathrooms?

I have a one bedroom with four bathrooms. Very nice.

Catboy commented ... did he suggest replacing the bathrooms with the clumping kind, for easy removal of solid waste?

Water is based on usage. Should not effect pressure unless all is on/used at same time.

If you are interested in Eastern Queens (Queens/Nassau border... street is actually split!), please post your contact info. I am selling a home that is in excellent condition,(although no granite counters)and has been very well maintained. It has 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, (sorry, none are in the kitchen),finished basement, central A/C and more.

I like a full bathroom for guests, even if it's in a slightly weird place.

I live in a one bed den, 1.5 bath duplex where a previous owner took out the shower of the downstairs bathroom in order to recess the refrigerator in the kitchen.

I imagine most potential buyers prefer the recessed refrigerator since the bedroom and den are both upstairs, which has a full bath. If we ever re-do the bathrooms or kitchen, though, I'd be tempted to put the shower back. I really don't like guests in my bathroom and prefer to have an "unused" bathroom for the 10-20 days a year I have overnight houseguests.

I'm an anti-multiple-bathroom kind of person and prefer one-bath apartments over houses where bathrooms seem to multiply. They're a waste of space and generate more cleaning and scrubbing than they're worth.

Particularly "master bathrooms" that are only accessible from one room in the house. Why would you want a bathroom attached to your bedroom like that? You get up in the middle of the night to use it and the sound of flushing wakes up your spouse, or vice versa. You should have the bathroom out of earshot.

I can't get over how the ratio of bathrooms to residents just keeps increasing. A friend's brother got married a few years ago and moved into a newly-built house in New Jersey, and I went to visit. It was ridiculous. Each of the three bedrooms had its own attached bathroom, plus there was another one near the kitchen.

Female visitors just loved the plethora of bathrooms and were openly talking about a heretofore-unprecedented 1:1 ratio of bathrooms to residents becoming the norm. We guys have no desire for such things and are perfectly happy to share a bathroom among the whole family, but you just know that in these one-bathroom-per-person houses the husbands are going to be chastised if they don't do "their share" of cleaning all those excess bathrooms that they never even wanted.

>but you just know that in these one-bathroom-per-person houses the husbands are going to be chastised

Careful, my friend. Your misogyny's showing.

I don't see "extra" bathrooms as a negative at all.

Don't like the extra cleaning? Don't mess them up in the first place.

Are you sure these houses weren't doing 'extra' partitioning/packing multi-families in or setup for those types of rentals?

Ideally, I like to see a private five fixture bath in the master suite (or even two separate baths), a private four (or three) fixture bath attached to each of the other bedrooms, and a half bath powder room for guests (located on the ground floor if there are two or more floors in the home).
