To be completed before June 1, 2013 (after electrical work in March).
1) All new flooring and trim to match Queen's Room in hallway, King's Room. Single sheet flooring in King's bath since it can be completely seamless.
2) 2 person whirlpool bath with shower. This looks good, fancy jet package and all for $2000.

American Standard has models below $1000 with jets at Home Depot, nothing like the Denver package above. Jacuzzi has a stable of models, wouldn't be surprised if they make the Denver look cheap.
3) To fit bath, push out closet wall in back by 1 foot. Closet continues full length as before, but in two sections, staggered. Or just push out entire wall by up to 14", if that works. Or angle wall. Or loose 40" of closet (which would be OK...I'm not using that section anyway, it turns out, it's partly blocked by a junkpile, and it still leaves 68" of closet since I have a 9 foot closet to start, and another 4 foot closet in The Lab. My preference would be the staggering, pushing out a section of the closet, and continuing from there as an open closet to help make the room seem more spacious. My whole closet is open anyway, but the leading wall is important to the room, it hides my closet from visitors if the king's room door is open, or if they are using the king's bath. The continuation, pushed out probably 18 inches to make it comfortable for the new tub space, can be just a flat wall panel with luxury closet hardware projecting out in the room (far corner)...if that is possible and affordable.
4) Toto toilet with bidet.*
5) New sink, vanity cabinet, and mirror. Real medicine cabinet with mirror on side wall.
6) New Don Young window for King's Room.
7) Double sheetrock on two walls in King's Room, without wall teardown.*
8) Solid core door for King's room*
9) Double sheetrock on outside of Queen's room, continuing along side wall only if needed. Do this if at all reasonable, but I worry.*
10) Double sheetrock above King's room door.*
11) Double sheetrock on sides of bathroom facing kitchen and laundry room.*
*If it gets too expensive, postpone (4) and selectively drop others marked with asterisk. The main purpose of this remodel is to replace bath and window, which must be replaced, but flooring and vanity are very ugly and 30 years overdue for replacement anyway. Bathtub replacement is always a lot of work and expense, so why not spend a bit extra to get luxury tub?
