hi, hope you will be posting pictures too

i was originally going to add another wall between to the 2 rooms on the top left, to create a hallway space between them so i could make it make sense but i decided that the room was too big really for a bathroom. i hope you can figure out a solution for yours

i still intend to move the wall dividing the main bedroom and what DHE used as the bathroom (the room at the back on the left, you can see this in the pic above, its the too rooms on top) and make the front room smaller which will then become the kids room. the back bedroom will now house the master b/room and i shall add a small corridoor from the hallway to reach the master bedroom. i might also include an extra door into the bathroom from the main bedroomto give another view of the bathroom as it will be partially hidden by the wall from the front view.

after a few choice words, i went back to my original plan of a hallway between the 2 room on the upper left. i tried to work a way to include a hallway with 3 smallish rooms, but i didnt like the fact that they would be so small, so i opted for a luxury bathroom. i think this option works very well because you can see through the hallway from the stairs. also as you come up the stairs the new hallway is opposite you, looks like its meant to be there. i also moved the door for the front bedroom

Hi Sal,

I'm still trying to work out your alterations in my head - tricky as I've never seen a Fairbanks in real life but I love the long shot down the hall. That'll be a great view when you've decorated too.

heres how it looked before, so you go through the main bedroom to access the bathroom, with the door to the master bedroom on the right near the window. hope that helps a little bit click the last picture and you can see from here it is the 2 upper rooms that i am talking about Fairbanks Gallery | The Dolls House Emporium
